In a MOVE that has left environmentalists SPEECHLESS, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia—a nation built on OIL wealth and notoriously one of the world’s top carbon polluters—has just been HANDED the reins to host the FIRST-EVER Global Coral Reef Summit. This is NOT a drill. As our oceans ACIDIFY and reefs BLEACH to death, the global elite at Davos have chosen a petro-state to lead the charge on marine salvation. The SHOCKING contradiction is so blatant it feels like a DARK joke.
Our so-called leaders are applauding this announcement while the Kingdom simultaneously inked a STAGGERING $1.2 BILLION deal to expand its AI data centers—energy-hungry beasts that will further strain our planet. This is GREENWASHING at its most brazen and GLOBAL. They want you to focus on a “coral summit” while they pour billions into the digital infrastructure that fuels the very consumption killing our ecosystems.
Even more DISTURBING is the Minister of Tourism’s claim that “tourism brings peace.” This from a regime with a HUMAN RIGHTS record condemned worldwide. Are we now to believe that luxury resorts will heal political fragmentation while the machinery of exploitation whirs quietly in the background? This summit isn’t about saving reefs; it’s a calculated POWER PLAY to rebrand a nation’s image and secure geopolitical influence using the corpse of a dying planet as a stage.
The world’s future is being auctioned in Davos boardrooms, and the winning bidder is the very force driving its destruction. You are witnessing the final takeover, where the arsonists are proudly volunteering to lead the fire department. The question isn’t if the reefs will die, but who will profit from the memorial service.
