“Heart of the Climate Crisis” – UN General Denounces Global Oil Lobby

Date:

The oil industry has come under harsh criticism from UN General Guterres. She bears the greatest blame for the climate crisis, he said.

“The fossil fuel industry is the polluted heart of the climate crisis. The solution is obvious: oil, coal and gas must stay in the ground where they belong,” António Guterres scathingly criticized the oil lobby. The reason for this is the interim negotiations in Bonn for the next climate conference. This will take place – again with tens of thousands of participants – in Dubai in November.

Greenpeace boss Alexander Egit denounces the fact that United Arab Emirates Minister of Industry, Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, is the chairman. Because he is also CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, which also owns 24.9 percent of OMV. “With Al Jaber, the goat was turned into a gardener,” criticizes Egit.

Meanwhile, the UN Secretary-General angrily warns that current policies should be responsible for a temperature rise of 2.8 degrees by the end of the century: “But humanity is rushing to catastrophe with its eyes wide open.”
