Undercover in Saudi Arabia’s secretive program to keep the world burning oil
Speaking to undercover reporters, Saudi energy officials disclosed ambitious plans to undo progress on phasing out oil by financing high carbon infrastructure across Africa and Asia.
Saudi Arabia publicly claims to support the Paris climate change agreement, which aims to limit global temperature increases to 1.5C or 2C – requiring an almost total transformation of the way in which the world produces and consumes energy. The Crown Prince [Mohammed bin Salman], also known as MBS, has said that the Kingdom needs to go “further and faster” in tackling climate change.
The Oil Demand Sustainability Program (OSP) is a vast government program with dozens of projects aimed at embedding a high-carbon, fossil fuel-dependent development model in countries across Africa and Asia. This includes meticulously researched plans to drive a major increase in gasoline and diesel-fuelled vehicles and boost jet fuel sales via increased air travel.
Responding to the investigation, Mohamed Adow, director of Power Shift Africa, a non-governmental organisation based in Nairobi focused on climate change, told CCR: “The Saudi government is like a drug dealer trying to get Africa hooked on its harmful product. The rest of the world is cleaning up its act and weaning itself off dirty and polluting fossil fuels and Saudi Arabia is getting desperate for more customers and is turning its sights on Africa.”
It's no secret because without oil that country doesn't have any other industry and all these rich fucks would go back to being poor goat farmers.
We nedd to eliminate that country anyway they are threat to democracy and thier greed a threat to life on Earth.
9"Eliminate" you say? What could you possibly mean by that? cough
7Nuclear fire would be ideal, but honestly if we pull military support and equipment sales from them they'd get invaded by their neighbours before the end of next year.
The problem would then solve itself. Along with the entire country's abuse of literally every poor soul that found themselves either abducted or coerced to stay in the country as a slave. They can 'coerce' people to stay by taking their documents to 'verify' them and then just not giving them back, leaving them stranded on the street looking for work in order to eat.
We also shouldn't forget that the Saudi's bankrolled the entire 9/11 shit show.

If the US pulled its support, because it didn't need their oil anymore, Saudi Arabia would be invaded by multiple neighbours within a week. The Saudis have been swinging their dick in other countries' faces for quite some time.

What secretive program? They have openly said that they will get out every bit of oil and gas and sell it. They are also heavily pushing renewables for their own consumption, so they can sell more to us idiots refusing to transition and still being firmly in the grip of lobbyist propaganda. And after that they will produce hydrogen and other power-to-gas-products to us, again because we can't produce them as they are totally obviously inefficient trash not worth pursuing.
7Who thought this was a secret? they lead OPEC for crying out loud.
4Because money babyyyy🤑🤑🤑🤑
