At the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Saudi Arabian Finance Minister Mohammed Al-Jadaan made some bold claims about how to solve the supposed climate crisis. According to Al-Jadaan, the only way to fully address climate change is by implementing a worldwide system of carbon taxes. He argued that without a globally coordinated carbon tax, there can be no realistic solution to the climate transition.
Now, some people might think that this kind of tax would hit the poor and developing nations the hardest, hindering their industrial growth and causing inflation. But Al-Jadaan disagrees. He believes that if we don’t take action on climate change, it will be these countries that suffer the most. So, in his view, a system of carbon taxes, along with subsidies for developing households and funding for the developing world, is the fair and only realistic solution.

While Al-Jadaan may have his reasons for advocating for a global carbon tax, it’s important to remember that this kind of proposal is a favorite among globalist circles. Just last month at the COP28 climate summit, French President Emmanuel Macron and Kenyan President William Ruto called for a global carbon tax system within the next two years. They argued that this tax system would raise money to finance the fight against inequalities and for the climate.
Of course, this proposal was backed by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, who believes that more needs to be done to meet the goals of the globalist green agenda. She called for the expansion of carbon pricing and claimed that the EU has already raised billions of euros in taxes on private companies to support green policies.
It seems that at this year’s WEF meeting in Davos, there were not only calls for an international carbon tax system but also demands for the International Criminal Court to recognize “ecocide” as a crime. This would mean that individuals who allegedly damage the environment, including fishermen and farmers, could be punished alongside war criminals at The Hague.
All of this goes to show that the globalist agenda is pushing for more control and more taxes in the name of climate change. While it’s important to protect the environment, we must be cautious of these proposals that could hurt the economy and infringe on individual liberties. It’s a tough balancing act, but we must find a solution that works for everyone, not just the global elite.
