Democrat Climate Change Cult: Ban Everything!
Ministers from the Group of Seven (G7) nations have agreed to eliminate all coal-fired power plants by 2035.
The countries that are members of the Group of Seven (G7) are Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, as well as the European Union.
This declaration was made by Andrew Bowie, a UK minister at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, during an interview in Turing, Italy.
“We do have an agreement to phase out coal in the first half of the 2030s,” Bowie said.
“This is, by the way, a historic agreement, something that we weren’t able to achieve at COP28 in Dubai last year.”
“So, to have the G7 nations come around the table to send that signal to the world – that we, the advanced economies of the world are committed to phasing out coal by the early 2030s – is quite incredible,” he added.
Business Standard reported:
Italian diplomatic sources said a technical deal had been reached.
The accord will be included in the G7 energy ministers’ final communique to be released on Tuesday at the end of a two-day meeting in Turin.
One source told Reuters earlier that diplomats from the G7 nations – Italy, the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Canada and Japan – discussed the issue until late on Sunday, before the start of the ministerial gathering.
The agreement marks a significant step in the direction indicated last year by the COP28 United Nations climate summit for a transition away from fossil fuels, of which coal is the most polluting.
It helps accelerate the shift of investments from coal to clean technology in particular in Japan and more broadly in the whole Asian coal economy, including China and India,”

I guess they forecasted the winter of 2035 to be an especially cold one.
But NOT China and India, or Russia. So meaningless gesture beyond national suicide.
Stupid.
‘..Stupid....”
Yes sir...that’d be the libtards.
Dumber than a box of rocks and destroy everything they touch....EVERYTHING.
...and people wonder why I want to move to the Third World - answer, to have a chance at retaining my lifestyle.
P.S., did Putin have anything to do with this decision by the G7?
RE: Shut Down All Coal-Fired Power Plants by 2035
Why aren’t China and India included?
We should all celebrate our impending doom. Mankind will be killed off by stupidity such as this. Revelations (from the Bible) predicts a third of all mankind will be killed off in the first phase of plagues. All nations against Israel, genetic tampering, changing weather through artificial means and gain of function for plagues to de-populate the earth. Let’s sit back and enjoy our front row seat to the end of the world.
China and India, and Russia love when we do this stupid bs. It kills all the competition they have.
At which time China will become ruler of the world.
Exactly. What a bunch of clowns 🤡
Because they are not insane?
We need Donald TRUMP NOW!!!...

“So, to have the G7 nations come around the table to send that signal to the world – that we, the advanced economies of the world are committed to phasing out coal by the early 2030s – is quite incredible.”
Yeah, that’s quite a signal. The reality is that the delegates in effect painted “stupid” on their foreheads and grinned like idiots for the photo op to send to the world. That truly was and is incredible. The word incredible is of Latin derivation. It means unbelievable. So, grin western elites with “stupid” painted on your foreheads as the world looks on with incredulity (another big word of similar Latin derivation) at your stupidity.
“Why aren’t China and India included?”
To put the West at an economic disadvantage. The BRIC nations argue the West has polluted far mor over the last hundred+ years and so now they need to be able to use cheap energy even if it pollutes. Global climate change is just the lever to make it easier or China and India to compete.
If they enforce that it will be meaningless. G7 countries will be eventually overtaken economically by the hydrocarbon-producing countries.
