Globalization 4.0 will help us tackle climate change. Here’s how
World Economic Forum ^ | January 14, 2019 | by Klaus Schwab, Founder, World Economic Forum

Posted on 01/14/2019 12:15:27 PM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Climate change – arguably humanity’s most existential challenge – requires urgent global action.

As the World Economic Forum’s Global Risk Report 2019 will show only too clearly, environmental crises – notably a failure to tackle climate change – are among the likeliest and highest-impact risks that the world faces over the next decade. Indeed, 2018 saw record levels of costs due to extreme weather events.

The urgent scientific message on climate change finds it hard to cut through the news cycle and the competing agendas of our ever more complex world. The effects of the Fourth Industrial Revolution on the economy, employment and national security, for example, capture much of the attention time of political and business leaders. Rising uncertainties about the future of jobs and growth are forcing many politicians to turn inward for quick fixes to domestic insecurities, rather than lean outward to cooperate on more complex global issues such as climate change.

Looking ahead into 2019, the World Economic Forum is proud to support the United Nations Secretary General’s important Climate Summit in September, which seeks to scale exactly such innovative multi-stakeholder collaboration to help tackle the climate crisis. To this end, I have high hopes that this year’s Annual Meeting in Davos can help spur the renewed push for action on climate that we require for the months ahead. To do so, we must encourage both the Davos spirit for collaboration and the action platform approach to help scale our collective problem-solving for global issues, which Globalisation 4.0 calls for.

At least they are finally admitting that global warming is a ruse to get feeble minded snowflakes to accept...nay...demand global government.

They will eventually adopt the Thanos Solution: Kill half the people. At least.

Yes, but unlike Globalism 3.5, this time they made Internet Explorer a separate product.

Globalists want an open borders, one world totalitarian government.

Climate change is merely a means to it.

LOL. A does of something horrible to deal with a fake disease. I’m surprised they didn’t add in that Socialism or some massive international tax to fund UN research to the mix.

Yeah, and all we have to do is give up our national sovereignty and let the United Nations decide what’s best for us and the world. End poverty, end wars, end global warming. End capitalism, end nationalism, end Western, ie, Christian Civilization. Spread the wealth around.
