Climate Change

Ivan from Linwood

While the wars between Ukarine/Russia & Gaza/Israel continue, I have heard no leaders/polititions etc say a word about how this sets the earth back years on any efforts to stop this. It seems like we are wasting time with agreements on lowering emissions, carbon emissions, greenhouse gas, etc, etc, etc. Organisations like UN can't agree on anything. The 1997 Kyoto Protocol agreement, the Paris agreement, in fact all Climate change agreements are useless and the planet has been set back 100's of years while these senseless countries hammer each other into the ground destroying humanity. Has anyone heard from any climate scientists recently? The only people more silent on the subject are those that did not believe. It seems to me that no one gives a dam any more.
