        Interesting thought about sovereignty. Instead of yelling at Brazil, we should all be sending firefighters and fire fighting equipment to the Amazon to help. He said they don't have the resources. Collectively, we do.

        Yes, white master. Please save our lands because we brown people can't take care of ourselves.

        Funny. THIS has been the very goal of the Climate Policy Complex since the very start. Watermelon propaganda.

        Sounds like the British philosophy regarding India and Africa back in the day: White people know what’s best for all people. 🤔

        I don't think that's why the British colonized the world.
