Brazil’s environment minister trolled the recent climate talks in a tweet that may have some activists seeing red.
Ricardo Salles – a participant in the longest U.N. climate talks on record, which came to a disappointing end Sunday – posted an image of a meat platter in an apparent dig at environmentalists.
“To offset our emissions at COP, a veggie lunch!” Salles posted in reference to the talks, which his boss, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, also has criticized.

“Rich countries do not want to open their carbon credit markets,” Salles said in an earlier tweet. “They demand measurements and point their fingers at the rest of the world, unceremoniously, but when they put their hands in their pockets, they don’t want to.”
The COP25 conference in Madrid ended with delegates from nearly 200 nations in disagreement over how to tackle climate change and the postponement of a debate surrounding rules for international carbon markets until next year.
In the end, negotiators endorsed a general call for greater efforts to tackle climate change and several measures to help poor countries respond and adapt to its impacts.
The final declaration cited an “urgent need” to cut planet-heating greenhouse gases in line with the goals of the 2015 Paris climate change accord, but it fell far short of demanding explicitly that countries submit bolder emissions proposals next year.

Just like those idiots parading around naked or riding bicycles while naked its the same thing those jerks from PETA do when they pretend to be cuts of meat or paint stripes on them put silly ears in their hair and pretend to be caged animals Anyone who has anything t o do with PETA is either a Fool or a total Idiot
I’ve thought about taunting the alarmists, calling them out. A MAGA hat would do it, that’s how easy it is to set them off. The people I’d like to reach are the ones who hear the global warming alarm bells because they’re naive. They want to help.
There’s not much sense engaging with radicals. Ignore them, turn the camera away, hit the mute button. They are attention craving haters.
It is too bad I don’t know any climate alarmists. It would be sooo much fun to flaunt the meat that we eat, heating our home to the upper 70’s, and each member of the family driving every where we go. This time of year I could also point out our very large display of Christmas Lights that can only be enjoyed by my family since we live in the middle of the woods. Perhaps the fact that I don’t know any climate alarmists to taunt says something. They make their numbers seem much larger than they are by their demonstrations and other activities.
I suggest these alarmists identify the poor countries they allege are suffering from climate impact. They should also provide evidence that the impact, if any, is other than natural variability.
Good for him why should we all be forced to go vegan over this Global Warming/Climate Change scam in the first place Here in America like in the west we have bumper stickers reading BECAUSE THE WEST WAS NOT WON ON SALAD and BEEF ITS WHATS FOR DINNER and Screw Vegans and Animal Rights Idiots
