https://democracynow.org - As government ministers from around the globe gather in Katowice, Poland, for the final days of the 24th U.N. climate summit, we speak with 15-year-old activist Greta Thunberg, who denounced politicians here last week for their inaction on reducing greenhouse gas emissions. She has garnered global attention for carrying out a weekly school strike against climate change in her home country of Sweden. “We need to change ourselves now, because tomorrow it might be too late,” says Thunberg. We are also joined by her father, Svante Thunberg, a Swedish actor.

Greta Talking at UN Climate Summit.



Greenpeace activists climbed a 180-metre chimney at a power station in Belchatow, central Poland, on Tuesday to protest Warsaw's coal policies ahead of UN climate talks this month.

The state-run plant is Poland's biggest power producer, Europe's largest polluter and one of the biggest coal power plants in the world. Nine activists climbed an internal ladder to the top of the conical chimney at the plant, which is fuelled by lignite and belongs to PGE.

"I am from a mining family, we have been connected to coal mining for generations. There is no future in coal. What we need is a just transition from coal and fossil fuels to renewables," Marek Jozefiak, an activist climbing the chimney said.

Greenpeace Energy Plans Takeover Bid For RWE’s Coal Business To Replace With Renewables... Tree Sitters Protest Lignite Coal Mine in Germany - Hambach Forest - German Police Arrest Activists - Burning Lignite is the OPPOSITE of Energiewende. (Updated 11/28/2018)



In Poland, local movements are challenging the nation’s addiction to coal. Just Like they are Doing in Germany... Poland is the Second Largest Coal Mining Country after Germany.

A climate activist wears a mask with the word “Coal” struck-through in Polish as hundreds of environmentalists march to campaign against global warming, in Warsaw, Poland. 



Ending Poland’s dependency on this climate-disastrous industry will not be easy. The ruling nationalist Law and Justice party (PiS) government, which has been in power since 2015, almost considers coal-mining a patriotic duty that promotes sovereignty from Russian energy sources, and it has resisted EU-wide anti-coal climate legislation. Similarly, Poland has faced disciplinary measures from the EU about its anti-democratic judicial reforms. This makes the citizens’ assembly in Gdansk all the more remarkable in the way that it deals with climate change through a democratic innovation.

Trump sells Patriot Missiles to Poland. Bad Idea. What if they Use them?

During his visit to Poland Trump announced the sale of weapons. Let's suppose the Poles actually fire those missiles at Russia... That could trigger an escalated response,  possibly Atomic. Say hello to World War Three and the end of all life on earth... It will be the Book of Revelations come to life!

Trump also sold weapons to Saudi Arabia... They are proven terrorists as 14 out of 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudi. Osama bin Laden was a Saudi... and now Trump sells them Weapons? That's a recipe for disaster... We already see how the Saudis are bombing the hell out of Yemen... They destroyed the water systems and now cholera is an epidemic... Vast quantities of civilians are dying... and we the USA are enabling that war. That's evil. Impeach Trump. Stop the attack on civilians.

This is what's happening while Trump and the Media distract the people of the USA with endless stories about Donald Jr. meeting with the Beautiful Russian Lawyer... That meeting makes a great news story because it makes Junior look like a chump... Lured to a Secret meeting that his dad didn't know about... By a Fox, Natalia Veselnitskaya... Would this story be so popular if there were no photographs of a pretty woman? Did you know that she was in New York to go to court about the trial of Russian Money Laundering? The Russians laundered $240 million dollars by buying expensive NYC real estate. They settled the trial by agreeing to a fine of $6 million dollars... a gift of the US government... Maybe that's why Trump fired all those Attorney Generals... Preet Bharara was the US Attorney prosecuting the case... This trial ended with a slap on the wrist for the Russian Money Launderers... Remember, Impeach Trump Now.
