U.N. Chief Guterres Backs Complete Fossil Fuel ‘Phaseout’ Before Flying to Climate Meeting

[1LoverofGod]

U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres backed a complete fossil fuel “phaseout” Thursday before boarding a jet and following upwards of 70,000 other climate worriers flying into the two-week COP 28 conference in oil-rich Dubai.

Anything less, the veteran Portuguese socialist cautioned, would result in “total disaster” on humanity’s current trajectory.

“Obviously I am strongly in favor of language that includes (a) phaseout, even with a reasonable time framework,” Guterres said in an interview with AFP.

Some countries have already called for the COP28 final statement, which requires unanimous agreement, to explicitly call for a reduction in fossil fuel consumption, adding their voice to previous Guterres warnings that the planet is doomed on its current course.

May they have their next conference in International Falls in January, and do it without fossil fuel [tapping foot emoji}
Love to see that electric airplane get off the ground when it's time to leave. Can't plow the runway, can't de-ice the wings, can't jumpstart the batteries for various pieces of equipment, etc.
