US prioritising a new cold war over stopping climate catastrophe
The US’s cold war propaganda offensive into the Cop26 has centred on attempting to position itself as the world’s “climate leader” and to shift the blame for the climate crisis onto developing countries, particularly China and India.

Tragically, the COP26 process has been swept into the matrix of dangerous geopolitical tensions, driven largely by the United States in its quest to prevent China’s scientific and technological advancement. Rather than focus on the necessary energy transition, developed countries have taken to crude propaganda against a handful of developing states such as China and India.
It is likely that COP26 will be a failure.

The U.S. is clearly the world’s worst per capita major carbon emitter not only in historic terms, which is relatively well known, but also in current terms. The U.S. attack on China and India, the first of which has per capita carbon emissions 46% of the U.S. and the second of which has per capita emissions 12% of the U.S., is therefore a grotesque frameup.

The West Asian and North African region is disproportionately feeling the impacts of climate change, but the ongoing imperialist-led wars make it nearly impossible for these countries to implement mitigation measures.
