Rajan's Take: Climate Change: Climate Scam: NGO credibility hit a new low. The shame much worse than their Rwandan Genocide culpability

FAO goes on to say that higher energy prices imply more and more people end up starving. But this is exactly what climate justice advocacy is all about - raising energy prices. FAO highlights that two thirds of the worlds undernourished live in just seven countries, including India. But the WWF, Greenpeace, Oxfam, Christian Aid, Action Aid, CARE, Lutheran World Federation (surprise surprise), Brot fur die Welt etc through their climate advocacy wants just that - raise the energy prices in this country and continue to ensure more and more Indians end up starving.

Yeo Says No - Guy Fawkes' blog

“This happens to be one of the most beautiful parts of my constituency which stretches from here to the coast.”
