The UN is gearing up for COP30 in Brazil, where global elites will once again lecture the world about “climate catastrophe.” But behind the rhetoric lies hypocrisy: bulldozing the Amazon to host the event, while new science shows the rainforest is actually thriving thanks to carbon dioxide.

In this interview, Heartland Institute President James Taylor explains why the U.S. should refuse to participate, how the global climate agenda is really about power and redistribution, and why so-called “green” energy sources like wind and solar are neither clean, affordable, nor reliable.

Heartland will be in Brazil as the unofficial American delegation—bringing facts the UN won’t share.
