No science behind phase out of fossil fuels
The president of Cop28, Sultan Al Jaber, has claimed there is “no science” indicating that a phase-out of fossil fuels is needed to restrict global heating to 1.5C, the Guardian and the Centre for Climate Reporting can reveal.
Al Jaber also said a phase-out of fossil fuels would not allow sustainable development “unless you want to take the world back into caves”.
The comments were “incredibly concerning” and “verging on climate denial”, scientists said, and they were at odds with the position of the UN secretary general, António Guterres.
Al Jaber made the comments in ill-tempered responses to questions from Mary Robinson, the chair of the Elders group and a former UN special envoy for climate change, during a live online event on 21 November. As well as running Cop28 in Dubai, Al Jaber is also the chief executive of the United Arab Emirates’ state oil company, Adnoc, which many observers see as a serious conflict of interest.

Re: No science behind phase out of fossil fuels
The war on fossil fuels is political. The climate crazies have abandoned science.
Unfortunately, first principles of physics can not be used to model climate. This fact allows charlatans like Al Gore and John Kerry to get away with spouting nonsense.
I challenge anyone to provide data that supports CO2 driven climate change. Good luck. There isn't any.
