Córdoba spends millions on its climate circus: globalist shows and 2030 agenda

Repeating the 2030 script, the event reproduces the globalist narrative with state-funded environmental marketing

With freezing weather and a prefabricated narrative, another chapter of the state climate show began in Córdoba. The International Climate Conference promises "action," but hides the millions in expenses borne by taxpayers. Amid fairs, panels, and empty speeches, useless commitments multiply without oversight, without cuts, and without results.

CCI25 was driven by the Province and the Municipality, with more than 5,300 accredited participants. Governor Martín Llaryora led the opening ceremony alongside local officials. The provincial and municipal governments fund the logistics, transportation, Expo, and international broadcast in three languages.

Plenty of speeches, zero austerity

There was no announcement regarding cuts in state structures or concrete plans for energy efficiency. Meanwhile, the political staff continues to grow, and officials pose as environmental leaders. The contradiction between narrative and reality repeats itself, as in every edition of this type of event.

The main event was a political panel with governors from different political parties. Pullaro (Santa Fe), Ziliotto (La Pampa), Torres (Chubut), Sadir (Jujuy), Llaryora (Córdoba), among others, participated.

The same old alarmist environmental rhetoric

Victoria Flores, provincial Minister of Environment, read the "regional commitment" toward COP30 as if it were a moral manifesto. The absence of the national government was used to play the victim and reinforce the narrative of the progressive summit. However, behind the green backdrop, CCI25 doesn't offer real solutions: only more empty statements and self-congratulations with other people's money.

Representatives from IAE Paris-Sorbonne, Global Footprint Network, and ambassadors from the EU and France spoke. There was also a presence from UN-Habitat, ICLEI, and other organizations from the multilateral ecosystem. The script repeats itself: same actors, same topics, and no proposal for austerity or transparency.

Meanwhile, an environmental fair is taking place with recycled products and grandiloquent speeches about sustainability. CONICET, universities, and NGOs are participating, all with state funding. There is talk of reuse, but nothing is said about reducing political positions or eliminating unnecessary expenses.

Climate and gender: ideological banners

One of the most ridiculous panels was dedicated to debating the impact of climate change on women and girls. The event was organized together with UN Women, ICLEI, and international environmental NGOs. A "gender and inclusion kit" was presented, without explaining who paid for it or what effect it has on the real lives of Córdoba's residents.

CCI25 is broadcast in three languages on YouTube, with technological and human resources from the state. The estimated cost is in the millions, although the amounts and bids were not published. The lack of transparency once again marks this type of gathering: lots of marketing, little oversight.

No announcements, no changes, no adjustment

Tuesday's agenda included talks on planning, gender, universities, and structural change. There was no discussion of public spending efficiency or questioning of bloated structures. These governments preach circular economy, but don't reduce or recycle their own privileges.

The so-called "Federal Political Dialogue" was presented as the kickoff for an environmental agenda from the interior. Governors and officials repeat concepts without questioning the expansion of the spending they sustain.

Participation is free... for some

The event is free for attendees, but funded by all taxpayers. There is no requirement for accountability or publication of audits from previous editions. Córdoba once again hosts a big marketing show, but a useless one.
