António Guterres lashed out at the fossil fuels industry following a meeting with civil society groups, the Associated Press reported. The industry, he said, is “trading the future” for money. Guterres urged them to move “away from a product incompatible with human survival.” “The problem is not simply fossil fuel emissions… It’s fossil fuels – period,” he said.

The United Nations secretary-general didn’t mince words when addressing how he feels about the oil and gas industry this week.
António Guterres lashed out at the fossil fuels industry following a meeting with civil society groups, the Associated Press reported. The industry, he said, is “trading the future” for money. Guterres urged them to move “away from a product incompatible with human survival.”
“The problem is not simply fossil fuel emissions… It’s fossil fuels – period,” he continued said.
Despite Guterres’ passionate rebuke of fossil fuel usage, the United Nations reportedly owns an entire fleet of aircraft, and is known for hosting a lavish annual climate summit that draws as many as 400 private jets, according to Breitbart News.

“incompatible with human survival.”…oil contributes greatly to man with thousands and thousands products made from oil
Ground all UN officials, immediately.
Only allow EVs and bicycles.
Is this member of the clown parade staggeringly stupid, or staggeringly duplicitous. I’m opting for the latter.
The UN is incompatible with human survival. There, fixed it for ya.
Don’t forget to arrange an award ceremony for yourself. That seems to be a characteristic of organizational narcissism with money involved.

CANNES, France—Marketing gone awry recently cost Bud Light its long-held crown as America’s bestselling beer.
But the brand’s owner, Anheuser-Busch InBev, was here at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity—a lavish annual gathering in the south of France, often called the Oscars of the ad industry—collecting one of the event’s highest honors: Creative Marketer of the Year.
…
In the wake of that controversy, across the Atlantic on Monday, AB InBev’s global chief marketing officer, Marcel Marcondes, took to the Cannes Lions’ main stage to give the event’s opening seminar. The session was described in programming notes as a talk in part about AB InBev’s “relentless focus on connecting with consumers in meaningful ways.” Marcondes also touched briefly on the Bud Light situation stateside.
…
The awards body, which is owned by London-based Ascential Events, announced AB InBev’s back-to-back win in March, months ahead of the Cannes Lions festival itself and just before attention around Bud Light’s work with Mulvaney began to swirl.
“The award recognises AB InBev’s sustained creative excellence that has driven sustainable business growth—as well as their body of Lion-winning work amassed over a sustained period of time, and reputation for producing brave creative and innovative marketing solutions,” Cannes Lions said in a statement released in March.
This article and the linked AP story keep using the term “civil society groups.” What is a “civil society group,” and who were these “groups” with whom Guterres was meeting?
I looked it up and found a World Economic Forum (WEF) (Boo! Hiss!) article which says, “According to the World Bank: “Civil society … refers to a wide array of organizations: community groups, non-governmental organizations [NGOs], labour unions, indigenous groups, charitable organizations, faith-based organizations, professional associations, and foundations.””
In other words, Marxist, left-wing lunatic activists and climate loons. That alone disqualifies the UN and Guterres. It is time we defund and disband the lot of them.
Human survival and happiness is not compatible with his goals. I have another solution for our UN problems. I say we cancel their lease in New York and send them packing. They are not compatible with human well-being and mental stability. Thank you.
“The problem is not simply fossil fuel emissions… It’s fossil fuels – period,” he said.
Apart from CO2 emissions, how are fossil fuels a serious problem? That doesn’t make sense. Does the UN believe that having civilized societies that live longer, are well fed, educated, and prosperous is a negative thing? Then the UN is NOT on the side of the people. They want us dead.
Maybe this guy needs to check out his job description and the purpose of the UN

I’m sure that the people of Ukraine would welcome some help in maintaining international peace and likewise quite a few African nations could do with some humanatarium support.
He is currently operationg well outside of his remit (and clearly his abilities).
The UN, WHO and other like them should be focussing on their “Purpose and Priciples” rather than jumping on the bandwagon of Cults!
Change the title this way : UN Chief is ‘incompatible with human survival’ If you cut off fossil fuels as he wants transportation will come to a screeching halt. people won’t be able to get to their jobs, or to the grocery store. Trucks that deliver groceries to the stores wont be delivering groceries so the shelves will be empty. Half of US homes are heated by fossil fuels so people will freeze in their homes. 60% of US electricity is produced from fossil fuels so switching to electricity won’t work either.
