   Ten Years After the Paris Climate Agreement, Climatism is Crumbling   
      
   As COP30 kicks off in Brazil, the absence of major leaders like China's Xi   
   Jinping, India's Narendra Modi, and US President Donald Trump signals a major   
   crack in the global climate consensus a decade after the Paris Agreement.   
   Climatism-the push for Net Zero emissions-is facing fierce backlash worldwide.   
      
   Billionaire Bill Gates, a long-time climate donor, has softened his stance. In   
   a recent memo, he downplayed apocalyptic predictions, saying climate change   
   won't destroy civilization and that the focus on emissions distracts from   
   tackling poverty in developing nations. This marks a shift from his earlier   
   alarmist views, as detailed in his 2021 book.   
      
   In the US, Trump has called climate efforts "the greatest scam" and rolled   
   back policies, including wind subsidies and climate funding. The US isn't even   
   sending delegates to COP30. Overseas, opposition is growing: UK's Reform UK   
   dubs it "Net Stupid Zero," Germany's AfD party wants to scrap wind turbines as   
   "windmills of shame," and Australia's Liberals and Nationals are abandoning   
   Net Zero to cut energy costs amid rising bills.   
      
   Despite 30 UN climate conferences and $10 trillion spent on renewables since   
   2000, there's no real climate benefit. Hydrocarbons still provide 87% of   
   global energy, coal use is surging with over 6,500 plants worldwide, and   
   energy demand keeps climbing. Renewables haven't kept pace, failing to offset   
   growing consumption.   
      
   As Gates noted, billions lack electricity, clean water, and basic services,   
   leading to needless deaths. Instead of chasing unattainable emission goals,   
   world leaders should prioritize these real issues over what critics call   
   unfounded CO2 hysteria. The climate ideology is crumbling-it's time for   
   practical energy policies.   
      
   Steve Goreham, author of Green Breakdown, argues this shift is overdue.
