"The UN-supported Principles for Responsible Investment group has surveyed all the climate policies expected to be put in place in major economies between now and 2050, and they have concluded that global warming will peak below 1.8°C around 2050. 'This is a more optimistic future than many anticipate.' Yep"

I grew up thinking, nay, believing that the United Nations was the bee's knees...
Yeah sure, if wishes were trees, the trees would be falling.
This UN Chief’s (Antonio Guterres) ‘List of Shame’ (actually titled "Agenda item 64 (a): Promotion and protection of the rights of children") omits not only Israel, but fails to even passingly mention the word "#china" even once.
The Chinese dictatorship has for years forced Tibetan children into CCP-run #sinification boarding camps with the aim of eradicating their Tibetan identity forever, starting with their Tibetan mother tongue.
If they are allowed to even briefly visit their homes those children will struggle to communicate and will grow increasingly alienated from their families and their culture.
Instead they will be indoctrinated with... if I continue, any conscientious person reading would feel uncomfortable to say the least, so... what dogmas and what One Language would the current CCP regime indoctrinate a million inconvenient untermensch Tibetan children with...?
Where are the Chinese people saying "not in my name"?

The so-called "national security law" ("#NSL") was imposed on #Hongkong (with "worldwide effect") by the never-elected #CCP dictatorship to protect it *from* the people, not to protect the #Chinese nation they repress or their occupied neighbours they systematically #genocide.
Does going against the *fundamental values* of the #UnitedNations (e.g. the #UN Charter) warrant something slightly more serious than a... letter?
The dictator that helped the CCP to overthrow the Republic of China, certain mr. stalin, was quickly ejected from the League of Nations for attempting to invade #Finland (and after having already invaded the Baltic states of #Lithuania, #Latvia and #Estonia and eastern half of #Poland in agreement with mr. hitler).
How does the #dictatorship that killed more people than #stalin and #hitler combined and invaded greater "#lebensraum" territory than either of those (*after* WWII and the founding of the UN!) was ever allowed to enter the UN Security Council and get a *veto* over anything?
Can you answer in a... letter? No rush. The #Tibetans, #Uighurs and #Hongkongers have all the time in the world...

#World on 'thin ice' as #UN #climate report gives stark warning | #APNews
"#Humanity still has a chance, close to the last, to prevent the worst of #ClimateChange’s #future harms, a top #UnitedNations panel of #scientists said Monday.
But doing so requires quickly slashing nearly two-thirds of #carbon #pollution by 2035, the #IntergovernmentalPanelOnClimateChange said. The United Nations chief said it more bluntly, calling for an end to new fossil fuel exploration and for rich countries to quit #coal, #oil and #gas by 2040."
