"#WorldEconomicForum judges what is the greatest threat to humanity every year in their annual report. Used to be #Nukes were the greatest threat. Today #FossilFuels are our weapons of mass destruction. #ExtremeWeather, #droughts, #biodiversity loss etc. are now the greatest threats to humanity."

PODCAST https://www.podcastics.com/episode/347812/link/

My Governor Andy Beshear did a wonderful job talking to BBC Business Today.
He was live from Davos at the World Economic Forum, mentioned that Kentucky was invited due to their economic record, and was balanced in talking about President Trump's upcoming address to the forum.

Some good news, #ai is going to help tackle #climatechange. As future updates will without a doubt show you, dear detective, is that at the moment humanity is going all-in on this solution. Maybe posting this #breadcrumb is not necessary at all. These were our plans last year:

On a closer read, 7.5 out of 9 solutions are mainly about mapping out the problem to make it easier to live with the outcome... I'll just keep posting just in case...

It was once fashionable for CEOs to use the Swiss confab to talk about the importance of issues like climate change and DEI. No longer. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2025/01/27/world/davos-vibe-shift/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #us #donaldtrump #worldeconomicforum #davos #dei #climatechange

Ökonom Vöpel - Erfolg von Trumps disruptiver Politik ist nicht ausgeschlossen

Nach dem makroökonomischen Lehrbuch kann die Politik von US-Präsident Trump eigentlich nicht funktionieren, sagt Henning Vöpel. Womöglich habe er dennoh Erfolg.#DonaldTrump #US-PräsidentDonaldTrump #WEC #Weltwirtschaftsforum #WORLDECONOMICFORUM #DAVOS #US-Politik
Ökonom Vöpel zu Davos-Rede: Erfolg von Trump nicht ausgeschlossen

1.2 billion people in the developing world are going to enter the workforce in the coming next 10 years.
Despite a recent fall in global unemployment, 402 million people are still lacking jobs. Filling in this gap & addressing a lack of employment opportunities is critical to reduce existing inequalities. How can high-quality employment be placed at the heart of future economic policy, especially at a time when nearly a quarter of jobs are exposed to disruption?

#Irish politician #AodhánÓRíordáin sent a brutal message to #Trump hours after Trump’s train wreck #speech at the #WorldEconomicForum in #Davos.

I know it’s the #WorldEconomicForum and all, and I didn’t expect much, but listening to the speech, panel questions and answers made me feel literally sick

#Trump at the #WorldEconomicForum in #Davos

#Oil, #Deregulation, #ClimateCrisis

"My administration has also begun the largest deregulation campaign in history."

"I terminated the ridiculous & incredibly wasteful Green New Deal. I call it the Green New Scam, withdrew from the one-sided #ParisClimateAccord, & ended the insane & costly #ElectricVehicle mandate."

"The US has the largest amount of oil & gas of any country on Earth, & we're going to use it."

Zelenskyy says Russia-Ukraine peace deal would require 200,000 allied troops | Davos 2025 | The Guardian…

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Zelenskyy said European leaders should not ask themselves what Trump would do next, and said that they instead needed to take collective steps to defend their continent at a time when it was under aggressive attack by Russia...

I just received wedonthavetime.org newsletter about the #WorldEconomicForum in #Davos. It featured this picture.

First thought: of well, good to see that some of today's threats will be disappeared in 10 years time.

Second thought: oh s**t, even worst ones are coming.

We should all act now.
Every action counts.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that at least 200,000 European peacekeepers would be needed to prevent a new Russian attack after any ceasefire deal. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/01/22/world/crime-legal/zelenskyy-security-peacekeepers/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #crimelegal #ukraine #russia #russiaukrainewar #vladimirputin #volodymyrzelenskyy #davos #switzerland #worldeconomicforum
