The United Nations (UN) is demanding that taxpayers in Western nations contribute an additional $308 billion per year to help the unelected globalist organization allegedly fight “climate change” in third-world countries.
The UN argues that the United States and other developed nations are responsible for the suffering in “climate-vulnerable countries.”
The organization detailed its demand in a new “Climate and Environment” report.
The UN cites another report from the International Labour Organization (ILO).
According to the UN, the ILO is warning that “Half the world lacks social protection amid climate crisis.”
The UN report states:
“Social protection is essential to safeguard people from shocks, but half the world is without any coverage, including over 90 percent of people living in climate-vulnerable countries, according to a new report released on Thursday by the International Labour Organization (ILO).
“Around 50 percent of us do have access to at least one social protection benefit – but 3.8 billion people lack any kind of safety net, including 1.8 billion children worldwide, according to the World Social Protection Report 2024-26: Universal social protection for climate action and a just transition.”
In a fearmongering statement, ILO Director-General Gilbert Houngbo warned:
“Climate change does not recognize borders, and we cannot build a wall to keep the crisis out.
“The climate crisis affects us all and represents the single, gravest threat to social justice today.”
The UN claims that the “findings showed that governments are failing to make full use of the powerful potential of social protection to counter the effects of the climate crisis and support a just transition to a greener future.”
In addition to its report, the ILO also published a promotional video.
However, the video is filled with falsehoods and fasly links weather events such as storms and floods to the so-called “climate crisis” from the onset.
WATCH:
“Low-income countries, including the most climate-vulnerable States, need an additional $308.5 billion a year, or 52.3 percent of their GDP, to guarantee at least basic coverage and international support will be needed to reach this goal,” the UN asserts.
“The [ILO] report also recommends prioritizing investment in social protection, including external support for countries with limited fiscal space.”
Yet, despite the claims from the UN and the ILO, the money would provide no benefit whatsoever for the intended recipients.
Kenyan economics expert James Shikwati responded to the demands for more cash to be sent to his nation in a statement.
“For God’s Sake, Please Stop the Aid!” Shikwati urged.
Shikwati, 35, says that aid to Africa does more harm than good.
The avid proponent of globalization spoke with Spiegel about the disastrous effects of Western development policy in Africa, corrupt rulers, and the tendency to overstate the AIDS problem.
“Such intentions have been damaging our continent for the past 40 years,” Shikwati noted.
“If the industrial nations really want to help the Africans, they should finally terminate this awful aid.
“The countries that have collected the most development aid are also the ones that are in the worst shape.
“Despite the billions that have poured into Africa, the continent remains poor.”
“Huge bureaucracies are financed (with the aid money), corruption and complacency are promoted, Africans are taught to be beggars and not to be independent,” Shikwati added.
“In addition, development aid weakens the local markets everywhere and dampens the spirit of entrepreneurship that we so desperately need.
“As absurd as it may sound: Development aid is one of the reasons for Africa’s problems.
“If the West were to cancel these payments, normal Africans wouldn’t even notice.
“Only the functionaries would be hard hit.
“Which is why they maintain that the world would stop turning without this development aid.”
