> Russia is in full scale climate denial There is a big tragedy in the west - we have no understanding of other countries. Despite having millions of immigrants from those other countries. Could we maybe interview some of them to find out what’s going on? For example - we’ve been in Afghanistan for 20 years. Britain has thousands of refugees from Afghanistan. When the time came to evacuate people from Afghanistan, the British team that was in charge of planning, selecting and prioritising evacuees had zero people from Afghanistan, zero people who’ve been to Afghanistan and zero knowledge of how things work there! Report spells it out: https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm5803/cmselect/cmdfence/725/report.html https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm5803/cmselect/cmdfen... In case of Russia on climate change, it’s a laggard-follower of European technology and practices. Vodka is produced and bottled with Italian machinery, artillery for war in ukraine is still produced on German CNC machines, Russian tanks had French thermal scopes, and cool dudes drive a BMW. When all European countries go renewable, after a few years lag, Russia will do the same. The cool dude will buy an electric BMW when all BMWs are electric, etc. Given that Russia has massive resources and farmland locked away in permafrost, they have been dealt a good hand if climate change is not addressed. So they have no urgency to act, but they are not a malicious actor on this specific issue.
