Communications ConCOPtions
The UN COP30 Climate and COP11 Tobacco Control conferences were criticized for ineffectiveness and wastefulness. COP30 focused on blaming the fossil fuel industry for lack of progress, while COP11 discussed tobacco harm reduction. Both events faced challenges and backlash from various parties. Despite ambitious aims, the UN quietly pushed through demanding climate goals. The FCTC, on the other hand, emphasized nicotine control over tobacco control. These conferences continue to face criticism for their narratives and agendas, leading to doubts about their effectiveness and impact on real-world issues. The focus seems to be more on maintaining a cycle of failures rather than achieving tangible results.
