Investors in the COP24 are the least interested in climate change

3 points by cx42net ↗ HN
The COP24's website (https://cop24.gov.pl) shows a list of partners, in which many are deeply involved with the current issues regarding climate change.

These includes:

* PGNiG: A petroleum company (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PGNiG)

* PGG: Polish Coal Mining company

* Orlen: Oil refiner and petrol retailer. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKN_Orlen)

* JSW: Coking coal/coke producer (https://cop24.gov.pl/partners/jsw/)

How can we trust an event that aims to work on climate change when it is financed by companies that are responsible for this?

PGNiG, PGG and Orlen are government owned so I wouldn't say they have their own agenda.

But yes, Polish government doesn't like the idea of giving up coal.
