U.N. Chief Says We Must Endure High Gas Prices To Avoid ‘Climate Disaster’

guterresThe pain of soaring gas prices must be endured because any wider embrace of fossil fuels as an alternative is “madness” and threatens global climate targets, U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres (pictured) cautioned Monday. [bold, links added]

If countries “become so consumed by the immediate fossil fuel supply gap that they neglect or kneecap policies to cut fossil fuel use” a climate disaster is the guaranteed outcome, Guterres said in a pre-recorded address to the Economist Sustainability Summit.

The invasion of Ukraine has seen rapid rises in the prices of coal, oil, and gas as countries scramble to replace Russian sources but Guterres fears these short-term measures might “close the window” on the Paris climate goals.

The BBC reports the veteran Portuguese Socialist also called on countries to fully phase out “stupid” coal by 2040 and endure the financial costs without complaint.

In his first major speech on climate and energy since COP26, Guterres lamented the limited progress achieved in Glasgow is insufficient to ward off “dangerous climate change.”

Guterres said carbon output needs to be cut in half by the end of this decade even as evidence shows emissions are set to rise by 14 percent.

“The problem was not solved in Glasgow,” Guterres pleaded in the speech. “In fact, the problem is getting worse.”

U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres disembarks after having flown to Cornwall Airport Newquay on June 12, 2021, to attend the G7 summit.

The war in Ukraine threatens to make that situation even more problematic, he said, with global energy shortages being turned around by countries that embrace coal or imports of liquefied natural gas as alternative sources.

Some globalist agencies have already said walking, rather than driving must be considered an alternative in times of fuel shortages.

Guterres said long-term planning is essential to ensure the planet can be saved.

“Countries could become so consumed by the immediate fossil-fuel supply gap that they neglect or kneecap policies to cut fossil fuel use,” he said.

Countries must “accelerate the phase-out of coal and all fossil fuels,” and implement a rapid and sustainable energy transition without delay.

Guterres also urged the world’s biggest developed and emerging economies to make meaningful emissions cuts, including by swiftly ending their dependence on coal — the most polluting fossil fuel — and holding private companies that continue to support its use to account.

It is “the only true pathway to energy security,” Guterres concluded.

    Wasn’t that a solar powered private jet he was flying ? I hear that when it’s caught in a cloud bank, they use compressed cow flatulance to get them through the dark spots .

    It’s a qestion of timescale. Gas and oil won’t last forever, and the only replacement in sight is Nuclear Fission, for now. No doubt some way of storing energy for road transport applications will appear, but ships will need reactors. Sleeping governments are the problem, not climate change that will solve itself, if it ever existed.

    These communists will saying anything and will use any ideology to usher in the NWO. In their world energy, liberty, freedom, self-determination and wealth is only for them not the masses. They don’t give a damn about you or me; all they care about is power–power to rule over every person on earth. They believe in any means required to “decrease the surplus population”; whether it’ war, starvation or disease they ARE doing it now! There is no fight against CC; the fight is against you and me!

    Socialist Gutierez’s war on energy is funding Putin’s war on Ukraine. Decreasing the free world’s production of energy makes Russia a fortune. And Gutierez’s ignorance is killing as many as 12 million people every year through energy poverty. While climate safety has improved by a factor of 300 over the last century. Bjorn Lomborg estimates only fifty-six thousand die per year from weather related causes. Down from half a million per year a century ago. In spite of a threefold increase in population. Gutierez seems to have no clue that CO2 is the basic ingredient of life on earth through photosynthesis. More of it makes life on earth greener, stronger, more drought-tolerant, and more abundant. And eight hundred thousand years of ice core data demonstrate clearly that CO2 level changes FOLLOW temps. They do not cause them. All while climate remains well within our three million-year-old ongoing Pleistocene Ice Age temperature patterns. Shame on you Gutierez, for your dangerous and willful ignorance of energy, climate and biology. You are a boat anchor to world progress – particularly for the poor. Barry Bateman, B.Sc. Advanced (biology)

    Dear Gutierez,
    I’ve thought it’s the COW FLATULENCE that causes Global Warming.
    LOL!
    Please, explain to me how the electric vehicles are going to stop cows from releasing that methane gas?
    Kill all the cows?
    What a flatulent parasitic bureaucrat.

    These Elites are so clueless about how the rest of us actually live our day-to-day lives. As to the actual climate disaster, they also never define it because it exists only in computer programs, not in real life.

      Even if you had creditable evidence that the recent warming was a crisis, so what then? Policies that are going to WRECK our economy & energy system? What about adaptation strategies as a main focus? How do you get China, India, Russia among others to contribute to meaningful emissions reductions? NONE of this is a rational approach to solving any kind of a problem…
