re: #1 Love-Child of Cassandra and Sisyphus

Here is Ajay Banga, the current (14th) President of the World Bank, in that video:

At the start of his verbiage was this:

“a journey fueled by hope is realized by deeds “

Ok, so dropping in some flowery words that sound like wisdom.

But the World Bank has been around longer than most international organizations, and in the help they have given (though some will argue that its more about dominion than help) the bottom line is increasing per capita energy use to make struggling economies around the world stronger.

The very nature of the World Bank’s goals is to increase carbon emissions.

Now that the World Bank acknowledges that climate change needs to be prioritized, are they going to tell the struggling masses that those people must cut their emissions???
