The UN chief accused energy giants of “feasting on hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies and windfall profits while household budgets shrink and our planet burns.” Guterres’ comments, at the UN General Assembly in New York, come on the heels of a European Union proposal to introduce a windfall tax on oil, gas and coal companies, many of which have reported record-high profits as Russia’s war in Ukraine and an energy crunch send prices soaring.
More than 300 people have died in floods in Nigeria this year, disaster management authorities there say. Typhoons and hurricanes have brought floods to Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and Japan this week. Drought is impacting vast swathes of the United States, China and Europe. Record profits, rising inequality Guterres warned that a “winter of global discontent is on the horizon,” with inequality “exploding” and the cost-of-living crisis “raging” while the planet burns.
To the EU and its countries, which have been supporting the PKK, Daesh and Fetö terrorist organizations with terror attacking for forty years and the showing every illegitimate behavior against Türkiye; why would Türkiye be so eager to supply Europe with natural gas? NordStream

Why you give visa to Rayssi
what ever happened to supply and demand, just healthy competition like before 2020, we know what happened but it is reversible
UN chief, please learn and know that any further taxation on Oil companies will negatively impact on ordinary citizens resulting into further economic chaos. Taxes are transferred to the pumps therefore Oil companies do not feel it. Concentrate on stopping the cause ie war.

If Poetin is afread of the West for eventually using Nuclear weapons, although this is not true at all, that the West would, means that Poetin is afread of Nuclear weapons, then I am almost certain thatPoetin is also afread of his own Nuclear weapons in general and will not use..
America has to war with china if it continues to use fossil fuels. The white rich elites must sacrifice some of their investments in China. A one nation policy is racist and against diversity. Wall Street must declare war on 🇨🇳! General Schumer n Bernie will lead wall street army
Yeah, like that tax want be passed on to the pump…
We ought to tax all the rich private planes, yachts and mansions. Should even ground those planes and yachts so they can't waste fuel and pollute.
Ok. Jump in your carbon junky jet and fly home.
A man the world should listen too.
Interesting how 2,500 people each year show up and stay over for a wine and culinary experience at Martha’s Vineyard ! Yet no room for 50 Minority Migrants ! 😢
Absolutely correct! The gas stations are playing daily game “Guess what the Price tomorrow”? It’s complete abuse of subjected customers! It’s like $3,78, next day $3,99, $4,08,$4,19. But Chevron, Exxon it’s $4,99, $5,48 and up!
Idiot
Not a problem he should be devoting any of his time to …
Mahsa_Amini was the 22 year-old Iranian girl who was brutally murdered for what they call Improper Hijab by morality Police. Hear us out. Be our voice. Today it is Mahsa, Tomrrow it can be any of us. مهسا_امینی
Ummmmm you don’t think that tax will be passed onto the consumer?!? How about nailing them on the price fixing they’ve been doing for years!!!! Oh wait, that would cut into the profits the governments already make off the existing taxes!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Democrats main platform: pay us more money to make yourselves feel good
Or....tell the power commanies to cut prices. Let the people keep this money.
If you tax them they just will raise prices exacerbating Shooting oneself in the foot is never a good idea but nice political theater for the ignorant
Power bills soaring because liberal environmentalists won’t allow more power plants. Doesn’t matter how “clean” they are.
Totally agree
The UN serves no purpose.
They will just pass it on to the consumers
People...invest in oil free ESG's...us your pocket book power to change the future.
Just wait for winter … when America cuts back on oil production and they buy from overseas creates a shortage and high prices for other country’s … comon sense , maybe thats why rest of the world dislike Biden
Put aside the planet burning for a second because 1) it’s not, and 2) no one really knows what all causes the climate to change, this genius and his minions are the reason why power bills are soaring, and now they’re trying to make it worse by further increasing costs…brilliant.
The UN is a complete joke.
'Small good word' from Gutetes. The polluters have to pay for destroying the Earth.
Power bills are soaring because of the war on fossil fuels
planet burns ? dont worry a tax will fix it
Orrrrrrrrr ... You could encourage increasing supply? Naah ... that's crazy talk! 😠
Stop subsidizing so much, wouldn't that be an ipso facto tax.
