Benny Peiser, director of the Global Warming Policy Foundation for the last 15 years, will give a talk in The Netherlands about the latest (geo)political and economical developments around climate policy. What does the Trump win mean for climate policy? Will the COP29 in Baku flop? Peiser talks from his longtime experience with the climate debate. Peiser: “For the first time in all these years I see people starting to listen to us.”
The talk will be given on Tuesday 26 November at 8 pm, shortly after the end of the COP29. The venue is Antropia conference center in Driebergen-Zeist. If readers from outside The Netherlands would like to attend, please contact evert.doornhof@clintel.org. The lecture will be recorded and be made available online after the event on the Youtube channel of Clintel.
Is the consensus about climate broken?
The global battle over the future of climate policies is deadlocked beyond repair. Developing nations are demanding $trillions in climate compensation and funding from developed nations. The latter, in return, demand that emerging countries like China, Saudi Arabia, Russia and Brazil need to contribute hundreds of $billions to global climate finance. Meanwhile, a growing backlash against unpopular Net Zero policies has terminated the party-political climate consensus in Europe. This talk will assess the deepening economic and political Net Zero crisis and contemplate pragmatic policy alternatives.
Dr Benny Peiser is the director of the Global Warming Policy Foundation. The GWPF is a non-partisan educational charity and think tank founded by the late Lord Lawson. Dr Peiser has written extensively on the economic risks and societal problems of the Net Zero agenda and unilateral climate policies. A 10km-wide asteroid, Minor Planet (7107) Peiser, was named in his honour by the International Astronomical Union.
Benny Peiser was interviewed for Climate: The Movie. Below a short fragment with him.
