Real climate action isn't happening at the UN Climate talks—it's happening everywhere else. So, are the UN climate summits a waste of time? What is their actual purpose? Should they be reformed or simply shut down? The Angry Clean Energy Guy breaks down what you need to know about the UN's COP conferences and highlights examples of the massive, inexorable climate momentum building outside the negotiating halls.

Stocks have found their footing after a recent period of softness, and that strength could continue through 2026, says Markus Müller, the Private Bank's head of the CIO office and Chief Investment Officer for Sustainability. “Positive year-end seasonality could still be offset by a temporary return of worries around AI market concentration, and also US labour market softness”, Markus says. “But looking across a 12-month horizon, the market is still positive.”Markus was also present at COP30, the latest UN conference on climate change, and he said the developments there were important for investors. “The lack of consensus on a fossil fuels phase-out means continued volatility in oil and gas”, Markus says, adding that changes will reverberate far beyond the energy sector. “It's not just about the climate, but shaping industrial strategy, trade competitiveness, and capital allocation.”For more investing insights, please visit wealth.db.com.In Europe, Middle East and Africa as well as in Asia Pacific this material is considered marketing material, but this is not the case in the U.S. No assurance can be given that any forecast or target can be achieved.

On today's show we are looking at what I consider to be one of the most ridiculous market forecasts from what should be a respectable institution.The IEA which is based in Paris issued an updated demand model in the run up to the UN's annual climate change talks, this year scheduled to take place in Brazil. I believe it is important to understand energy markets, even as a real estate investor. It's important because energy is the economy. You cannot have a unit of economic output without a corresponding unit of energy being consumed somewhere in the world. These two have been inextricably intertwined throughout history. The problem with the IEA line of thinking is that it looks at oil and gas  consumption without considering oil and gas supply. Supply and demand cannot be unbalanced for more than a few months. The oil industry only holds about 40 days of supply in inventory worldwide. So if supply and demand fall out of balance, prices will swing considerably which will ultimately affect demand. In the short term demand is relatively inelastic with price. You're not about to drive 3/4 of the way to work if the price of gas goes up by 1/3. But over time, capital decisions are made based on the economic model associated with each energy source. The US hit peak oil supply this year. That means the cost and effort to extract a barrel of oil from the ground is going to go up from here. The IEA report puts the global daily consumption of oil at around 100M barrels per day. Under the “Current Policies Scenario,” which is based on existing policy and regulations, global demand rises to 105 million barrels a day in 2035 and 113 million barrels a day in 2050, from 100 million barrels a day last year, mainly driven by petrochemical feedstocks and aviation.There are a few problems with this analysis. The first is that global oil consumption is already 104.6M barrels per day now in 2025 and the IEA is saying that it's going to take another decade to reach that demand.The biggest problem is that their model puts too much emphasis on government policy as the primary driving force affecting oil demand. There is oil on paper and then there is oil in the tank. These are not the same. Just because someone in Washington or Paris or London issues a policy statement about oil consumption you have to remember that the decision to consume oil consists of billions of micro decisions.-----------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:**

Ten years ago in Paris, the world set its key climate goal, to limit a rise in global temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Now the United Nations is warning that the planet is likely to overshoot that target in the next decade, and that swift action is needed to limit the damage. The warning comes as world leaders are gathering for the COP30 Climate Conference in Belem, Brazil. Christiane spoke to former UN Climate Chief Christiana Figueres, a key architect of the Paris Climate Agreement, in Brazil ahead of the summit.   Also on today's show: author Katy Hessel ("How to Live an Artful Life"); Grammy-award winning musician and songwriter Jacob Collier  Learn more about your ad choices.

The biggest climate negotiations of the year, COP30, are kicking off in Belem in the Brazilian Amazon. Longtime COP observer Jennifer Morgan joins us to preview COP30 and discuss the focus on closing the gap between current greenhouse gas reduction policies and what's needed to limit warming to a safer level. Also, King Charles III, who leads the Anglican Church, and Pope Leo XIV, who leads the Roman Catholic Church, recently joined in a historic prayer in the Sistine Chapel. This act of unity by these two faith leaders who are also sovereign heads of state was embedded in their shared concern for the environment, or creation.    And as one of the strongest hurricanes ever documented in the Atlantic, Hurricane Melissa brought catastrophic damage to Jamaica and Cuba, and an extensive relief and recovery effort is now underway. We talk about the aid efforts, long road to recovery, and importance of building back better.     ---    Federal funding for public radio has ended.

The leaders of the three greatest producers of carbon emissions — the US, China and India — are staying away from the COP30 summit, which officially starts on Monday. The UN says it's now "virtually impossible" to achieve the international target of limiting global warming to 1.5C. Also: South Africa says it's received distress calls from 17 citizens lured into fighting for Russia in the war in Ukraine; and China's astronauts say they've held the first ever barbecue in space.The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

The climate scam is the greatest “con job” in human history, and the United Nations is responsible for using U.S. tax funds for a globalist “assault” on the borders of Western nations, explained President Donald Trump in his historic address at the UN General Assembly. Trump also undermined the Deep State front group’s raison d’être ... The post Trump Smashes Deep State Golden Cows at UN: Climate, Mass Migration appeared first on The New American.

The United Nations is crashing, they say. But they should add that all institutions everywhere are crashing, because they aren't people. Institutions don't know how to be kind. After returning from our tour with Neil Young, after amphitheaters and arenas and the Hollywood Bowl, Savitri and I find ourselves suddenly back home with thousands of environmentalists in the streets. The Paris Agreement and the EPA are gone. Funding is gone and Big Oil is - drilling baby drill. The new resistance against the poisoners seems to wait for us inside a science fiction future... We are free to dream with the catastrophe of the Earth, which is dream-like in its vastness and other-worldly change. We follow the Earth's instructions: love wildly and dream, break down walls and flood.

With just weeks to go until COP30 in Belém, Brazil, the world's attention is turning to how global climate commitments can move from promise to practice. Investors are central to this shift — from financing the transition to engaging with policymakers - all of which we'll be discussing at PRI in Person in São Paulo, just days before COP30 kicks off. In this episode, Tamsin Ballard, Chief Investor Initiatives Officer at the PRI, speaks to Ana Toni, CEO of COP30, about the critical role of the investment community in shaping outcomes at this year's UN Climate Conference.OverviewCOP30 marks a pivotal moment: the first time all elements of the Paris Agreement's “full cycle” come into play. Countries must submit their decarbonisation and adaptation plans through to 2035, setting the framework that will guide both public and private capital flows. Against the backdrop of worsening climate impacts — and all this as the Amazon rainforest hosts — the stakes for implementation have never been higher.Ana Toni outlines her three cross-cutting priorities for COP30:Protecting the multilateral system to ensure global cooperation.Connecting global negotiations to everyday realities of consumption, financing, and business.Accelerating implementation — shifting from frameworks to real-world action.Detailed CoverageWhy COPs matter: From the Paris Agreement to carbon market reforms, COP outcomes shape financial systems, consumer choices, and long-term investor strategies.Decade after Paris: Governments now must present their 2035 climate plans, providing clarity and certainty for private sector investment.The finance dimension: COP30 will build on COP29's focus on climate finance, aiming to mobilise far greater flows of capital — especially to developing countries.Risks and opportunities for investors: Climate change presents both physical and financial risks, but also growth opportunities in renewable energy, agriculture, sustainable infrastructure, and emerging markets.Investor engagement: COP30 is positioned as a platform for matchmaking — connecting regulators, private sector innovators, and financiers to accelerate solutions in areas like SAF, green hydrogen, and agriculture.From promise to practice: Both PRI in Person (São Paulo) and COP30 (Belém) are highlighted as forums where investors can move beyond commitments into specific, scalable solutions.Chapters00:43 – Setting the stage: COP30 and investor relevance02:31 – Role of the COP30 CEO and the negotiation process04:09 – Why COP decisions affect finance and daily life06:37 – Priorities and hopes for COP3010:17 – 2035 plans and Paris Agreement “full cycle”12:51 – Risks and opportunities for investors16:54 – Practical ways investors can engage with COP3019:14 – PRI in Person as a platform for dialogue22:27 – The responsibility of investing: acting now for the long termFor more information on PRI in person, or its plans for COP30, please visit the following links:PRI in Person 2025 - 4-6 NovemberThe Road to COP30KeywordsCOP30, UN Climate...

The UN's top climate diplomat Simon Stiell is in Australia urging the government to set ambitious carbon reduction targets. Australia faces major economic risks from climate change, and delayed decisions on targets have sparked political debate. Meanwhile, Australia and Turkey dispute hosting the 2026 UN climate summit.

At the U.N. climate talks in Azerbaijan, negotiators struck a deal at the last moment. Wealthy nations pledged $300 billion a year by 2035 to help developing countries deal with the impacts of climate change and to help their transition to cleaner energy. It's nowhere near the $1 trillion a year that many experts and analysts say is needed. William Brangham discussed more with Manish Bapna.

The United Nations Climate talks, also know as COP29, is wrapping in Baku Azerbaijan this week. In a disturbing trend over the past few years, the largest delegation at COP29 is the fossil fuel lobbyist delegation. At the same time the UN continues to have the talks in petrostates like Azerbaijan and the United Arab Emirates (COP28 in 2023) and limit civil society ability to message and take action. In our latest, Scott talks with Allie Rosenbluth (@allieeerose.bsky.social) with Oil Change International to discuss COP29, the fossil fuel delegation, social movements and resistance to genocide in Palestine at the climate talks. Bio// Allie (she/they) is the U.S. Program Co-Manager at Oil Change International, where she focuses on supporting grassroots organizing and strategic campaigns aimed at phasing out fossil fuels. Prior to joining Oil Change International, Allie spent seven years at Rogue Climate. There, she worked to stop the Jordan Cove LNG export terminal and pipeline, developed local and statewide energy justice campaigns, trained youth organizers, and coordinated mutual aid in response to the devastating Almeda Fire in Southern Oregon. She serves on the Breach Collective Board, co-founded the Rogue Action Center, and was a SustainUS Youth Delegate to COP24. In 2019, Allie received the Community Sentinel Award for Environmental Stewardship for her work stopping fossil fuel projects.

AP correspondent Karen Chammas reports on the latest from UN climate talks in Azerbaijan.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports COP29 hosts prepare to present first draft text, but complex issues still to be sorted.

The major UN climate conference, known as COP29, kicked off in Baku, Azerbaijan, last week. Tens of thousands of attendees are present, including members of civil society, the private sector, and delegates from every country on the planet. This long-planned summit, however, takes place just a week after the world's largest economy and second-largest emitter elected as president a man who denies climate change and intends to pursue American withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement. What impact is the U.S. election having on these negotiations and on climate diplomacy moving forward? Joining me to explore this question and much more is Ryan Hobert, Associate Vice President for Climate and Environment at the UN Foundation. We begin with an extended conversation about this and another elephant in the room: the irony of a petrostate hosting a climate conference. We also spend much of our discussion focusing on the substance of this year's COP, particularly the effort to reach an agreement on funding for less-developed countries to help them adapt to climate change and mitigate its impacts.

AP correspondent Naeun Kim reports on a silent protest held at the annual United Nations climate summit as authorities restrict demonstrations at the venue in Azerbaijan.

Delegates from nearly 200 countries are meeting in Baku, Azerbaijan for the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change's 29th Conference of the Parties. Alden Meyer of the climate think tank E3G is a longtime observer of these meetings, and he shares his first impressions as these talks kick off. Although the global average temperature has been steadily increasing for decades, in 2023 there was a sudden jump of 0.2 degrees Celsius. Dr. Jennifer Francis, Senior Scientist at the Woodwell Climate Research Center, joins us to discuss the temperature spike and its implications for the climate crisis. After Hurricane Maria destroyed Puerto Rico's power grid in 2017, much of the island was left without electricity for up to a year, leaving vulnerable populations in the lurch. Many Puerto Ricans are pushing for a reliable, sustainable electricity system, but a proposed utility-scale solar project has sparked concerns, explains environmental attorney Ruth Santiago. -- Interested in gaining hands-on experience with producing a radio show and podcast?

Episode 276 Are the COP climate summits doing enough to help us avoid the most devastating impacts of climate change, or are they not fit for purpose, and designed to fail? COP29 is underway in petrostate Azerbaijan, headed by a CEO who was secretly filmed making oil and gas deals. Despite this, the team finds reason for optimism. They also hear from climate philosopher and activist Rupert Read, who runs the Climate Majority Project. He argues the COP process was designed to fail, that 1.5 degrees is dead and that adaptation - not mitigation - is the way to go. What do you think? Bird migration is an extraordinary feat of evolution - but how exactly do they do it? We know the Earth's magnetic field has something to do with it, but we've only just discovered the astonishing level of detail birds are able to get from it. Raising questions about bird intelligence, the team also hears how birds evolved from dinosaurs. Gophers have an incredible capacity to shape their landscape. Gophers are small, burrowing rodents with long front teeth. And a decades-long study has shown that just one day of work by a gopher can completely revitalise soil in an area, changing its microbial diversity and preventing disease. Gopher productivity surely puts humans to shame. Hosts Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet discuss with guests Madeleine Cuff and Sophie Bushwick.

The Other Side of the Story with Tom Harris and Todd Royal – Instead of helping poor countries with the funds they need to mine their own abundant fossil fuel resources and build power plants to generate the electricity their desperate people need to rise out of poverty, wealthy elites in the Western world want Africa to rely on unreliable and expensive wind and solar power. The result is obvious — the poor will stay...

Intro with clips - Prof. Jason Box (Geological Survey of Denmark & Greenland), Prof. Kevin Anderson (Tyndall Centre for Climate Research), Prof. Heidi Sevestre (AMAP, Arctic Council), Joshua Aponsem (Green Africa Youth Organization, Ghana), Anni Pokela (Operatatio Arktis, Finland) Lord Rowan Williams (Fmr. Archbishop of Canterbury). I started recording interviews on geoengineering over ten years ago and the thought back then that in the mid 2020's nothing would have been achieved in global emissions reduction, would have been too depressing to contemplate. Yet here we are. The Paris Agreement was meant to steer the world towards a cleaner brighter future but it has been ignored. Emissions from forest fires and melting permafrost are way beyond their thresholds and extreme weather impacts are testing infrastructure and ecosystems all over the planet.  Climate activists are even being locked up with cruel prison sentences for trying to act for the collective good. I discuss this in my next episode with XR cofounder, Gail Bradbrook. The UN Climate summit, COP29 will be held in one of the most significant cradles of the fossil fuel industry - Baku in Azerbaijan. There is no expressed intention to reduce emissions but instead the the COP29 President-Designate Mukhtar Babayev has a (quote) a 'vision to enhance ambition and enable action.' - whilst the widespread extraction of fossil fuels continues unabated. With all this in mind, the conversation of engineering interventions to try and delay the most destructive impacts of extreme climate, is moving along. It is controversial and divisive and yet voices from across the world, including in the Global South are saying that we need to take the research seriously.  In this interview with Dr Shaun Fitzgerald, Director of the Centre for Climate Repair at the University of Cambridge, we discuss the controversy and the viability of schemes. The news broke during our recording that the UK government agency, ARIA, have put out a call for proposals, offering £56.8m in grant funding for geoengineering projects. The largest government funding of it's kind. The failure of the global negotiations is discussed in my book COPOUT - How governments have failed the people on climate that is available worldwide in paperback and audiobook format. Sadly, the failure of the 3 decades of global climate summits means we are getting much deeper into the era of consequences. Central Europe is experiencing deathly storms and flooding while the smoke from Portugal's forest fires are spreading a toxic blanket over Spain and beyond. From the Amazon to Asia, ecosystems and infrastructure are being pummelled by natures response to carbon pollution. Next week I will be recording a 3 way interview with Dr Paul Davies from the UK Met Office and Dr Hayley Fowler from Newcastle University about their recent research paper titled 'A new conceptual model for understanding and predicting life-threatening rainfall extremes' - which is both important and fascinating. Thank you to all subscribers - there is extra content being uploaded for Patreon and Youtube subscribers.

The Other Side of the Story with Tom Harris and Todd Royal – Mistake after mistake were committed by the CAFES introductory presenter, resulting in ICSC-Canada preparing a web page which listed the errors with direct quotes from the IPCC reports. When we tried to share the page URL in the public comments during the June 19, 2023, online dialogue, the last in the series, our posts were quickly deleted by the organizers...

Ministers from more than 60 countries are meeting at the UN climate conference in Dubai to discuss the health challenges posed by global warming. It is the first time the agenda of the annual event has dedicated an entire day to public health.Also in the programme: Israel concentrates its renewed offensive on the south of the Gaza Strip; and we hear about the border dispute between Guyana and Venezuela.(Picture: Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO), speaks during the UN Climate Change Conference COP28, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (12/01/2023): 3:05pm- On Friday, George Santos became the sixth congressman in U.S. history to be expelled from the House of Representatives. The House voted 311 to 114 in favor of removing him following numerous allegations of lying about his background and a 23-count indictment that includes allegations he “repeatedly, without authorization” charged donor credit cards—depositing funds into his own bank account. 3:10pm- According to a report from Ronen Bergman and Adam Goldman of The New York Times, “Israeli officials obtained Hamas's battle plan for the Oct. 7 terrorist attack more than a year before it happened…But Israeli military and intelligence officials dismissed the plan as aspirational, considering it too difficult for Hamas to carry out.” You can read the full report here: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/30/world/middleeast/israel-hamas-attack-intelligence.html 3:20pm- On Friday, Secretary-General of the United Nations Antonio Guterres spoke at the 28th U.N. Climate Conference (COP28) in Dubai. During his speech, Guterres called for “ending fossil fuel subsidies, and adopting a windfall tax on profits.” But most importantly, who does Secretary-General sound like—the Count from Sesame Street or Bela Lugosi in Dracula? 3:40pm- Comedian Mark Riccadonna joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss preparing for the holiday season—including cutting down the family Christmas tree in front of his very judgmental children. Plus, what defines a Christmas movie? Does a movie merely need to contain a Christmas scene in order to qualify? If so, Mark's favorite Christmas movie is Goodfellas. You can find a list of Riccadonna's upcoming shows here: https://markriccadonna.com 4:05pm- On Thursday, Fox News hosted a debate between California Governor Gavin Newsom and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. During the 90-minute debate hosted by Sean Hannity, the governors debated their philosophical differences towards effective public policy—with DeSantis noting that Newsom's in-laws fled California for Florida. 4:15pm- Listeners weigh-in on the debate between California Governor Gavin Newsom and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Did DeSantis do enough to threaten Donald Trump for the Republican presidential nomination? 4:30pm- The Associated Press writes that there has been a concerning “surge in respiratory illnesses across China that has drawn the attention of the World Health Organization.” China's health ministry has claimed the uptick “is caused by the flu and other known pathogens and not by a novel virus.” Several Republican Senators are now calling on President Joe Biden to adopt a travel ban on China until more concrete information about the repiratory illness outbreak can be established.

During the hearing, journalist Michael Shellenberger explained: “We discovered that the Aspen Institute had created a workshop attended…by all major media, including social media platforms, to…pre-bunk, in advance, the Hunter Biden laptop story even though there was no evidence that it existed outside of the fact that the FBI knew they had it because they got it in December 2019." Meanwhile, journalist Matt Taibbi insisted the claim that government officials worked to suppress speech “isn't a crazy conspiracy theory. We have already had four federal judges rule that they believe this activity violates the First Amendment." 5:00pm- Daniel Turner—Founder & Executive Director of Power the Future—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the hypocrisy unfolding at the United Nations Climate Conference (COP28) being held in Dubai. For example, attendees expel massive amounts of carbon flying on private jets while reprimanding the rest of society for not adopting more stringent “green” policies. You can learn more about Power the Future here: https://powerthefuture.com/about-us/ 5:20pm- Restaurant chain McDonald's has announced it will be making changes to its cheeseburgers—which they hope to roll out nationally in early 2024. Heather Haddon of The Wall Street Journal writes that the new Big Mac will have “two all-beef patties…cooked in smaller batches for a more uniform sear. There's more special sauce. The lettuce, cheese and pickles have been rethought to be fresher and meltier, and the bun is now a buttery brioche, with the sesame seeds more randomly scattered for a homemade look.” You can read more here: https://www.wsj.com/business/hospitality/mcdonalds-burger-new-menu-2400d22b?mod=hp_lead_pos9 5:25pm- A man in Florida has collected 2,467 copies of the 1997 film Titanic on VHS—he's hoping to eventually own 1 million copies. Why??? 5:30pm- On Thursday, the House Judiciary Committee held a hearing on the weaponization of the federal government. During the hearing, independent journalist Michael Shellenberger testified that the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) violated the First Amendment in 2020 when it actively censored political content on Twitter and Facebook. Shellenberger concluded that the campaign of censorship amounted to election interference—encouraging Congress to dismantle government organizations whose actions were violative of the Constitution. 5:50pm- During Thursday's House Judiciary Committee hearing, Congressman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-FL) bizarrely tried to equate murder and rape to freedom of political speech online. 6:05pm- Dr. Nicole Saphier—board-certified diagnostic and interventional radiologist, professor at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Weill Cornell Medical College, & Fox News contributor—joins The Rich Zeoli Show. What can we expect when former Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci testifies before the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic in January? You can find Dr. Saphier's latest book, “Panic Attack: Playing Politics with Science in the Fight Against COVID-19,” here: https://www.nicolesaphiermd.com/books 6:30pm- Andrew C. McCarthy—Senior Fellow at National Review Institute & Author of “Ball of Collusion: The Plot to Rig an Election and Destroy a Presidency”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his latest article, “Jockeying Over Hunter Biden House Testimony.” McCarthy writes: “Hunter [Biden]'s legal team has reacted to the [Congressional] subpoena by agreeing that he will show up but demanding that the testimony be held in public…A subpoena is not a suggestion. It is an order enforceable by legal penalties. By agreeing that he will attend, Hunter is putting a brave face on what's no more than an acknowledgement that he will do what he is legally compelled to do. He is demanding that the hearing be public because he knows Republicans will refuse.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/jockeying-over-hunter-biden-house-testimony/ 6:40pm- Senator Rand Paul—United States Senator from Kentucky & Author of “Deception: The Great Covid Cover-Up”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show. Throughout the book Sen. Paul presents evidence that COVID-19 likely originated in a Wuhan, China laboratory and was a by-product of dangerous gain-of-function research. Was the research funded by U.S. taxpayers? And did Dr. Anthony Fauci attempt to cover-up the virus's origin? Sen. Paul says, “if I had it my way, Anthony Fauci would already be wearing pinstripes.” Plus, Sen. Paul reacts to Elon Musk's assessment that, prior to his ownership, Twitter suppressed Republican posts at 10x the rate of Democrats—accusing the social media platform of ostensibly being “a state publication.” Sen. Paul believes “without question Elon Musk is right.” You can order Sen. Paul's new book here: https://www.regnery.com/9781684515134/deception/
