Trump Heads to Davos, Where Climate is a Key Focus

Buoyed by two significant trade accomplishments, President Trump is heading this week to the World Economic Forum’s annual high-level gathering in Davos, where the organizers have made climate a major focus.

Trump is scheduled to deliver an address to the meeting in the Swiss Alps on Tuesday morning, the same day as the teenage Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg appears on two panels – one on “Forging a sustainable path towards a common future,” the other entitled, “Averting a climate apocalypse.”

“How to save the planet” is one of the chosen themes for Davos 2020, and WEF founder and executive chairman Klaus Schwab has asked every company attending to use the opportunity to announce “a target to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 or sooner.”

Huh? I certainly hope he reads them a riot act. Not to mention an earlier post (link in next post) says this: "Climate not considered a top 10 risk by CEOs - survey"

Trump should be passing out copies of the book, The Rational Optimist. It proves that capitalism and freedom are what produce a cleaner, better world for all.

Dear Mr President,

As soon as you leave Davos and are in the Air, order the Runway Bombed out of existence, they can all take the train and busses to save the planet.

No. Climate isn't the focus.

The Climate Nazis WANT it to be the focus.

He should say out loud that it is scam. Demand an accurate weather report for the next day.
Ask them what weather should be everywhere. Ask them all to stop flying anywhere like Davos and instead use video cameras for meetings. Take a bus instead of a taxpayer paid car to meetings.

I think Greta travels by train. But then trains use evil fossil fuels, don’t they? Maybe Greta buys carbon credits with Al Gore.

Greta rather famously traveled by train in Germany — and tweeted complaints about how unpleasant it was to travel by train.

“tweeted complaints about how unpleasant it was to travel by train”

Mostly by other people in her entourage...who had to listen to her whine during the whole train ride.

To start his talk, he should ask:

Say, I got up early this morning. Did anyone notice--that the Alps are melting????

(Pause.)

Anybody? . . . Yeah, me neither. So let's talk about something else.

The rich guys are so concerned about CO2 emissions, that 1500+ private jets are expected at Davos.

And they're so worried about rising sea levels, that the most civic-minded and self-sacrificing climate-aware leaders are saving us all from financial risk by buying up island and beach-front properties! To spare less-woke potential buyers from unwise real estate investments that would lead to inevitable inundation and doom!

Why put their personal mega-bucks into doomed properties which will soon be underwater? To protect their fellow citizens from getting soaked, I guess.
