These kinds of weather phenomena are happening all around the globe and it’s only becoming more and more common all because of climate change. And even as we barrel toward a climate catastrophe, many world leaders are still wary of any substantial climate action because of their unrelenting dependence on oil.And of course there’s Saudi Arabia — their massive oil supply has made them one of the richest nations in the world. The Saudis arerich off oil they are actually buying up parts of the U.S. — buildings, businesses and now apparently golf, as the PGA Tour just announced their merger with Saudi Arabia’s LIV Golf franchise.
All this despite the fact that their government played a role in funding the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, as well as brutally murdering Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi and hacking up his body with a bone saw.And as long as we stay addicted, they will not only get richer and gobble up more and more of our industries and our culture, we will suffer the consequences as the planet we live on — and that our children and grandchildren will inherit — becomes even more dangerous to live in.
