COP29 - Interview Not To Miss
Leading climate dissenter, Marc Morano exposed Donald Trump’s newly appointed Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) head Lee Zeldin, uncovering him for being a true believer in climate alarmism.
COP29: The UN’s annual Conference of the Parties on climate change is underway in Baku, Azerbaijan — November 11-22, 2024
The COP is an annual gathering of world leaders, experts, activists, celebrities, religious leaders, and banking elites advocating for the fundamental restructuring of all economies, industries, and lifestyles to save the world from the “existential threat” of anthropogenic climate change—or ”man-made” global warming.
The COP is usually a high-profile, even star-studded, event known for intense negotiations, impassioned proclamations and pleas, and stunts—like the climate repentance ceremony and presentation of the new Ten Commandments of climate policy at COP27 near Mt. Sinai in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.
However, five short days before COP29 opened, a majority of American citizens issued a sharp rebuke of everything Leftist by electing Donald Trump to the presidency in a shocking “too big to rig” November surprise. As media mind control, Maoist class division, and Marxist mid-managers have been exposed and rejected en masse, this year’s COP29 is but an empty shell of its usual progressive prestige.
This year, the Hollywood stars aren't attending, the most outspoken activists aren't there, and it appears to be mostly attended by global corporate banking interests. The major points being talked about this year are Carbon markets (sequestration and offsets, etc.), codifying Net Zero, and rapidly eliminating fossil fuels.

But, if you thought this was a harmless gathering of activist globetrotters meeting to congratulate one another for their exemplary morals and many green good works, think again. Through coercive power plays appealing to fear and shame and the fallacy of consensus science the climate pirates have created an extremely dangerous set of circumstances for the world’s poorest countries.
From 1958 to 1962 Mao Zedong’s Great Leap Forward, the collectivization of all agriculture, caused at least 20 million deaths. The truly diabolical doctrine of Net Zero (Carbon neutrality by 2050) has the potential to be even more deadly because it will affect billions more people, primarily those in under developed countries.
Author of The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels and Fossil Future, Alex Epstein writes,
“COP29 Is Immoral: COP29 seeks net-zero—rapidly eliminating fossil fuels—in the name of protecting us from climate danger. In reality, net-zero would radically increase climate danger and ruin billions of lives.”
“Net-zero policies have caused catastrophic energy shortages even with minuscule implementation. Just by slowing the growth of fossil fuel use, not even reducing it, they have caused global energy shortages advocates didn’t warn us of.”
“Poor nations: can't afford fuel due to global restrictions.”
So far, the climate movement has only slightly restricted fossil fuel use and the world’s most needy people have been the first to suffer from the high cost and shortages of fuel and power. If they were to somehow achieve the 50% reduction of fossil fuel use by 2030, the people they claim to care for the most would face artificially induced famines and political unrest. If they were able to reach their goal of 100% reduction in fossil fuel use by 2050, a global catastrophe would surely ensue leading to not millions, but billions of deaths mostly concentrated in Africa and the “Global South.” Their idea of utopia is actually hell on earth.
But wait there's more! The Sustainable Development/Net Zero is not only unwise and deadly, it is clearly also flush with corporate cronies, crooks, and white collar swindlers. No one should be surprised.
41 BILLION DOLLARS Disappears from World Bank
READ HERE and READ HERE
“A new report by Oxfam, “Climate Finance Unchecked,” has determined that the World Bank has $41 billion in unaccounted funds that were destined to fight climate change.”
“[B]etween 2017 and 2023, between $24 billion and $41 billion simply went unaccounted for and there is absolutely no record of where the money went. No one knows how the money was used as there is no paper trail revealing where the money went.”
Auditors said that no one has any real idea where or to whom billions of “climate action” dollars are going. The World Bank controls 52% of global climate finance, funding around 800 projects worldwide. However, over 40% of the more than $100 billion it disbursed simply disappeared. While no explanation was offered for the missing funds, World Bank President Ajay Banga announced, “We’re putting our ambition in overdrive.”
Nothing to see here—climate activists are demanding $5 trillion a year from Western nations as reparations for past climate sins. As you can clearly see, this is a scam and has little to nothing to do with climate or improving the lives of anyone other than the elites who control the climate change slush fund.
Climate politics, policies, and propaganda—right down to climate policies and land use reforms (land grabs) happening right now in your hometown—are the public face of a 100 year plan of full spectrum dominance, to sequester all wildlife, lands, mineral and water rights, and the bodies and minds of all the people of the world into global socialist utopia—also known as Communism for the 21st century.

Background of COP Climate Summit and Sustainable Development
The term "Conference of the Parties" originates from the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), established at the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. The UNFCCC treaty, aimed at "stabilizing greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere," designated an annual "meeting of the parties" to assess progress and foster international cooperation in fighting climate change.
The first COP meeting was held in Berlin in 1995, and COP has convened annually since then, gathering representatives from around 200 countries.
The mission of the COP is to advance global efforts to mitigate climate change through legally binding agreements, initiatives for carbon reduction, and policies aimed at reducing reliance on fossil fuels.
It seeks to enforce the principles laid out in the 2015 Paris Agreement, the landmark accord reached at COP21, which set goals to limit global temperature rise to below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the increase to 1.5°C.
COP meetings are intended to measure progress, discuss funding for climate initiatives, and establish new commitments to decarbonize economies, which effectively means to “de-grow” or regress an economy to austerity.
Funding and Budget
The COP is funded primarily through the UNFCCC, supported by contributions from UN member states. Wealthier nations contribute more substantial sums, while developing countries contribute less or are supported by wealthier nations. This sets up the ideal scenario to implement equity measures which are designed to extract wealth from the citizens of developed countries.
The plan is supposed to be to then transfer that wealth to developing or poorer countries. However, with so many hands in the pot, as we learned regarding the World Bank and $41 billion missing, the poorest on the planet are not lifted out of poverty ata all. In fact, as we learned from Alex Epstein’s research, their condition will certainly worsen.
The total budget for a single COP session varies widely depending on the location, but recent meetings have had budgets between $100 million to $200 million, including administrative, security, and logistical expenses.
Additional funding comes from corporate sponsorships and partnerships with entities such as major tech companies and environmental organizations. This financing model is highly vulnerable to corporate influence over the conference’s agenda.
US Involvement and Representation
The United States has consistently played a significant role in COP discussions, typically represented by the Secretary of State or the President’s Special Envoy for Climate, a position currently held by John Kerry.
Under the Biden administration, the US re-entered the Paris Agreement, signaling a renewed commitment to the COP’s climate goals after a hiatus under the Trump administration.
At COP meetings, US representatives collaborate with other developed nations to push for ambitious carbon reduction commitments, encourage global clean energy investments, and offer funding for climate adaptation in developing countries.
Accomplishments of the COP
The COP has achieved several notable outcomes over its decades of convening. Most prominently, COP21 in Paris in 2015 saw the creation of the Paris Agreement, which unified countries in a legally binding commitment to reduce carbon emissions. Another significant accomplishment includes the establishment of climate finance mechanisms to aid developing countries in climate adaptation and mitigation efforts.
However, implementation and enforcement remain inconsistent. Despite lofty pledges, many countries have struggled to meet their emissions targets, with emissions continuing to rise globally. This discrepancy between ambition and action is a recurring critique of COP’s effectiveness and exposes the true nature of the movement as one committed not to saving the planet but to the concentration of global wealth and power.
The path forward: reject net-zero and embrace energy freedom
By Alex Epstein
The path to global prosperity and increasing climate safety is energy freedom: allowing us to use all forms of energy so we are prosperous, resilient to climate danger, and in the long-term innovate new, truly cost-effective alternatives to fossil fuels.
Rejecting net-zero and embracing energy freedom means scrapping the Paris Agreement, whose pursuit of net-zero is committing virtually all nations, including the world’s poorest, to rejecting the fossil fuels they need to prosper.
While many at COP are saying that a US withdrawal from Paris by the next administration would be irresponsible, it is the only responsible action to take given that Paris commits us to banning most of the fossil fuels that we and our allies need.
Rejecting net-zero, including the Paris Agreement, and embracing energy freedom requires collaboration among pro-freedom countries like the US, developing nations such as African nations, and any reasonable energy companies.
Developing nations, above all African nations, need to reject net-zero and embrace energy freedom: the freedom to produce and use all cost-effective sources of energy—including, essentially, fossil fuels—which means rejecting all net-zero targets.
