about

COP28 host: United Arab Emirates (oil and gas accounted for 30% of GDP). President: Sultan Al Jaber, CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company

COP29 host: Azerbaijan (oil and gas accounts for more than 90% of Azerbaijan’s export revenues and provide 60% of government spending). President: Mukhtar Babayev, Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources, 26 years working at Azerbaijan's state-owned oil and gas company Socar. The country is expected to increase fossil fuel production by one third in the coming decade.

And don't forget, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, the US and Canada all export more oil than UAE or Azerbaijan. The US is the world's largest oil producer.

lyrics

Someone do something, someone be first
Everything’s turning to ashes and dust

The crows are lining up along the side of the road
What did you think would happen?

Head in the clouds
Head in the sand
Head up your arse
Head in your hands
What did you think would happen?

Done with your talking, run out of trust
Cos everything’s turning to ashes and dust
What did you think would happen?

Money won’t help you, you’re in it with us
Now everything’s turning to ashes and dust

The crows are lining up along the side of the road
What did you think would happen?

The crows are lining up along the side of the road
