The Conference of the Parties (COP) is the drab, nondescript name given to the massive annual huddles, held in some of the world’s great cities — Rio, Beijing, Paris — by the doomsayers at the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The panel modestly described the COP as the “supreme body of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change,” and, as such, the prestige of attending one of its vast conclaves is, for agitated alarmists, close to a liturgical rite, akin to the trip to Mecca for dutiful Muslims, or a prayerful tour of the Vatican for observant Catholics.
Some pilgrims have attended every one of these conferences since they started in 1991, working up a stockpile of green grace and global warming indulgences that will surely land them a special seat in whatever Valhalla or solar-panelled Elysium awaits the faithful souls who did their all for Gaia and David Suzuki during their time on this troubled Earth.
And if, as I truly believe, there is an afterlife in the green cosmogony, I know one bunch who are going to be waved on through, no passport required. I speak, of course, of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Knights of the Global Warming Fable. However elusive the Trudeau government’s positions may be on some matters — jet purchases, the economy, a referendum on how we vote, etc. — it is absolutely clear on its desire to put a halt to the tropical apocalypse that the great prophets of global warming assure us, every day, is upon us.
