The shadow of consulting firms (and #TonyBlair) on climate negotiations

by Emanuele Bompan, 04 APR 2024

"Tony Blair has a long history of support for #FossilFuel projects, especially in Central Asia (in 2014 he became an advisor to the consortium for the #TransAdriaticPipeline - #TAP, to bring Azeri gas to Italy), and a green-wash with wind turbines on TBI website is not enough to clarify where he currently stands for. The same can be said for all the consultancy firms that made billions of euros through contracts with the oil and gas sector, deals that are perfectly legal but can raise concerns when the same consultancy firms become agents and advisers to governments should serve the interests of citizens, not private companies."

    Manchester Monday 3 25th November 2024.
N961R, Douglas DC8-73CF, Emery Worldwide, but operating in DHL colours, taxiing out to Runway 24 at Manchester Airport, some time in the early 1990s.
The blimp in the background could possibly help narrow down the date.
Side view of a white, 4 engined jet airliner flying from left to right at a low altitude. There are flaps extended from the rear of the wings, and the undercarriage is lowered, suggesting the plane is about to land. The plane has a pair of red stripes running along the body, the upper of which covers the passenger cabin windows, with black "Air Gambia" titles on the upper fuselage. The tail is red, with a vertical white band next to a small white circle. Bright but hazy sky fills the rest of the frame.
Side view of a white, twin engined jet airliner taxiing from right to left, turning to it's right following a yellow line marked on the ground. There are green and red letters "TAP" on the forward fuselage, with vertical white "Express" titles overlaid on the long stroke of the "P", a dersign repeated on the tail. There are black "Air Portugal" titles on the upper fuselage just aft of that, with "FlyTapDotCom" at the upper rear. The upturned wingtips are also red and green. Grey concrete apron fills the rest of the frame.
Side view of a very long, very thin, red and white 4 engined jet cargo plane taxiing from right to left. There are red "DHL" titles on the upper forward fuselage, outlined in white, a design repeated on the tail. A white dirigible with black "Renault" titles along the body, with smaller black "A certain flair" on a yellow background below, is tethered to a mobile tower in the background. Trees line the airport perimeter in the distance, under grey skies.
