CALGARY, Alberta, July 27, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As reported by CNBC on July 18, 2022, UN Sec-Gen Antonio Guterres, incorrectly claimed heat waves, floods and sea level rise were caused by society's 'fossil fuel addiction', calling for 'collective action over collective suicide' to move to renewables – an impossibility since all renewables are made from fossil fuels, says Friends of Science.

Key Points: 
  • UN Sec-Gen Guterres' address to Petersburg Climate Dialogue illustrated the energy illiteracy of climate ideologues, says Friends of Science, saying he should step down for misleading the world.
  • Likewise, climate ideologues, using skewed assessments of livestock and fertilizer emissions, are tinkering with food and farming systems that work well; global famine looms - this must stop.
  • This is a catastrophic full-scale lab experiment of what Guterres proposes for the entire world, says Friends of Science.
  • In addition to climate tinkering with fertilizer and farming methods, Friends of Science says the attacks on livestock are not supported by the scientific evidence.
