COP28 President Declares ‘No Science’ in Demands for End to Fossil Fuel Use

Sultan Al Jaber, has declared there is “no science” behind climate alarmist demands for an end to fossil fuel use, adding any phase-out of coal, oil, and gas would plunge the world into societal decay and “back into caves.”

 

Al Jaber made the comments in responses to questions from Mary Robinson, the former Ireland president and former U.N. special envoy for climate change, during a live online event last month.

 

As well as running Cop28 in Dubai, for his part Al Jaber is also CEO of United Arab Emirates’ oil giant ADNOC.

 

The Guardian reports Al Jaber spoke with Robinson at a She Changes Climate event. Robinson said:

 

We’re in an absolute crisis that is hurting women and children more than anyone … and it’s because we have not yet committed to phasing out fossil fuel. That is the one decision that Cop28 can take and in many ways, because you’re head of Adnoc, you could actually take it with more credibility.

 

Al Jaber said in reply he accepted the invitation to come to the meeting “to have a sober and mature conversation.”

 

Then he turned on his inquisitor, declaring “I’m not in any way signing up to any discussion that is alarmist. There is no science out there, or no scenario out there, that says that the phase-out of fossil fuel is what’s going to achieve 1.5C.”

 

Climate alarmists’ overwrought accounts of hot summer weather are “fueling mental derangements,” writes WSJ’s Allysia Finley in a searing op-ed Monday. https://t.co/h59tKMrkuj
