"To understand the "damage" Bill McKibben claims the Planet of the Humans documentary has done to the climate justice movement you have to look at where 350 dot org began."

doublespeak Framing Neoliberal Language PES. Payments for Ecosystem Services Strategic Ambiguity The Paris Agreement UN Climate Action Summit UNFCCC ‘internationally transferred mitigation outcomes’
The unreality of this document is only matched by the unreality of the praise given to it by the media and others. This is a sign of how much strategic ambiguity and doublespeak have now become an accepted way for international politics to be conducted and reported.

"How do fundamentally economic concepts like unburnable carbon, stranded assets, and carbon budgets work for the inevitable continuation of fossil fuel extraction and the wholesale destruction of forests? How much political will for carbon capture and storage is out there and how is it expressed? How are pundits, mouthpieces or messaging agents able to use “clean energy” to mask their support for energy that is in no way clean?"

doublespeak Framing Neoliberal Language PES. Payments for Ecosystem Services Strategic Ambiguity The Paris Agreement UNFCCC ‘internationally transferred mitigation outcomes’
"Unfortunately, many environmental non-governmental organisations have bought into this illogical reasoning and justify their support as being pragmatic. Neoliberal language is rife across their reports and policy recommendations and their adoption of natural capital, ecosystems services, offsetting and market trading. These new environmental pragmatists believe, without justification, that the financialisation of Nature will help prevent its destruction. "

To me it is clear that the UN climate chief’s comments were tailored for the people who know that the real game lies in the continuation of coal mining, and sucking oil and gas under the nebulous cloak of “clean energy”.
