#ClimateDiary Another surreal moment in these disintegrating times: yesterday’s announcement that Saudi Arabia is to host the men’s World Cup in 2034.
I mean: pretty bad in itself, what this says about FIFA. But also, does anyone here really think that the world will be stable enough in 2034, climate wise and in general - for a world cup in Saudi Arabia? Or that global events like that, with their enormous carbon footprint etc, will go on in perpetuity?
