  • Barbadian Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley, who has emerged as a fierce critic of the international community’s inaction on the climate crisis, warned that the urgent climate risks facing island nations like hers are also affecting big nations like the U.S.
    “While we in the islands are the canaries, you are soon going to be the victims of that. Which country is hit by a hurricane every year, do you know? The United States. Every year, it’s just different states,” Mottley told TIME CEO and editor in chief Edward Felsenthal Tuesday June 7 at the TIME100 Summit in New York City.

      She talks about climate change as though it is a developed world issue, yet the developing world is emitting far more green house gasses than the developed world. The developed world does not have the resourses to stop that from happening.

      @@caltheodore4201 If you listen to her speeches, everything is about her people, her group and what victims they are from the other people who oppress her people.
      That's why her speeches are a waste of time and will be fruitless but it is why so many people who identify as her people love her because she says the stuff they want to hear.

    I would move my family to Barbados because of this person.
    So tired of Western politicians and their inability to speak, their denial of reality and responsibility, and most of all their corruption with regards to lobbyists, corporations and special interest groups such as religion. And I’m living in a tiny little country - how it must be for those with conscience and awareness in the USA or the UK, I just don’t know…

    When English Captain, John Powell arrived in 1625, the island was uninhabited and as a result he claimed it for King James I of England. What wealth did the British take from Barbados? The sugar cane was theirs.
