Is COP30 shaping up to be the worst UN climate conference ever? The 30th Conference of the Parties is underway in the Brazilian jungle — some of which was cleared and paved to bring the private jet-set and bureaucrats into the venue. And just days in, the whole thing is already descending into chaos.
A large group of angry indigenous protesters have stormed the conference, furious that the agenda left them out. Poor planning and shoddy infrastructure have led to rain leaking through light fixtures, broken air conditioning, and even problems with something as basic as toilet paper disposal.
Maybe sensing this impending farce, at least 30 major countries — including the United States — have declined to send official government delegations. We’re only a few days in, and it’s already looking like the worst COP ever. That takes some doing.
On Episode #182 of The Climate Realism Show, we’ll break down what’s really happening at COP30 and what it reveals about the people who want to control every aspect of our lives to “save the planet.”
The Heartland Institute’s Jim Lakely, Anthony Watts, Sterling Burnett, Linnea Lueken and guest Chris Martz will also cover some of the Crazy Climate News of the Week.
