Harris pledges billions in climate funds for Africa
Deutsche Welle ^ | April 1, 2023

Posted on 04/01/2023 3:48:21 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

US Vice President Kamala Harris announced private sector investment worth $7 billion to help Africa combat and adapt to climate change. The announcement came as her week-long trip to Africa comes to an end on Saturday.

"The United States is committed to these types of innovative solutions to support climate adaptation, mitigation and resilience," she said.

Harris added that the US would also provide more federal funding to improve access to climate information services.

The private funding will comprise investments by a mix of 27 companies and organizations. The funding is to be used for the promotion of climate-smart agriculture and to tackle the effects of climate change on Africa's food security.

Harris said it is "critically important that, as global leaders, we all speak truth about the disparities that exist in terms of cause and effect and that we address those disparities."

Harris pledges billions in climate funds for Africa in order to keep Africans living in the life stye they have been made to endure: poverty.

It just will not do to have these wretched tribal types burning horrid fossil fuels.

There it is, RIGHT THERE. Global warming always has been, an excuse to be a world wide welfare program, to destroy the western economies of the world. The bastards.

Africans are starting to really hate the west.

Africans needs energy and the west will not allow their banks to fund the construction of power plants.

This is holding Africa back and creating huge resentment that is driving African nations into the arms of China and the BRICS nations.

By the way, the BRICS nations just exceeded the G7 in global GDP

“Africans are starting to really hate the west.”

There are NEW PLAYERS now that Africa can deal with, and that’s exactly what they’re doing.

The idea of requiring Drag Queen shows to get financial aid just doesn’t cut it there, and the NEW PLAYERS (China and Russia) want nothing of that lifestyle.

I’m old enough to remember when Jimmy Carter was losing one country at a time - this Ukraine War bunch is now losing one CONTINENT at a time.

The goal of the Left IS NOT the establishment of a worldwide welfare program. The goal is the establishment of a worldwide government that controls every aspect of our lives.

Global warming or climate change or whatever you call it is just one of many arrows in its quiver.

A complete self-generated economic collapse is our only hope.

Yep, it’s one of their arrows. It’s one issue, among many issues. It’s all part of a world government scheme, to control us, or kill us, or whatever they want to do. If people think it’s bad now, wait till the beast is running the show. He will kill off much of the world’s population. Not all of it, but much of it. I don’t know how close we are to the tribulation period, but it looks like things are headed in that eventual direction.

I remember reading several years ago that some temp sensors were placed near parking lots which gave higher temp readings causing bad data.

“Africa is a big country. There are many Africans that live there. In the United States we also have Africans. The United States is a big continent. Africans in the United States are called African Americans.”

Africa needs roads, railways, airports, harbors, modernized agriculture, improved electric power, and manufacturing. Windmills, solar panels, and inefficient green farming techniques will not cause them to advance at least to the level of upper Third World nations.

Most of this money will end up in the pockets of corrupt individuals.

Actually, more like the Swiss numbered account plan. That is where the money will wind up. The “Heart of Darkness” wins again.
