The New York billionaire immediately called on Donald Trump to revise his views on climate change and show he was a “great leader”

By Karl Mathiesen

Former New York mayor and businessman Michael Bloomberg was appointed climate envoy by UN chief António Guterres on Monday.

Immediately, parallels were drawn with another New York billionaire, Donald Trump, whose determination to wind back US action on climate change Bloomberg has strongly opposed.

On Monday, Bloomberg said he hoped Trump would change his mind.

“And if that’s the case, that shows a great leader who when facts change, and they recognise something different, they’re not bound to what they did before, they’re willing to change,” he said.

The UN must be getting frustrated at the failure of all these heavy hitters to advance their climate agenda. If Bloomberg also fails, one can only imagine who the next UN Climate Envoy will be.

MB regularly dismisses MSM suggestion of running for President.
Wise given his mountain of ‘personal’ and ‘business’ skeletons.
It’s not real modesty folks . . .

When Bloomberg leads by example and cuts his carbon footprint down to just that of the average American, I’ll listen to what he has to say. I think it’s safe to say I’ll never have to listen to him.

Wait… the facts have changed?
I thought the science is settled and doom is upon us but now we hear the facts have changed since Trump beat the demon spawn from Hell?
Anyone got any info on WHICH facts have changed?

The One the only One, the big O-BA-MA… Nobel Peace Prize and all countries will cease to emit when Michelle shows up and read her book.

I have never seen a better reason to defund the UN and remove them from their great spot in Manhattan.

Having watched Altered Carbon, a Climate Envoy has additional overtones – pain and suffering via rigged climate models…

Hard to tell which one of these guys is the most sincere, but my vote is for the bird.
