How COP and green ideology broke the Western World | Former EU Commission energy official

For 30 years, COP summits have promised salvation and delivered nothing but slogans, moral posturing and declining European industry. At COP30, the same ritual repeats: frightened rhetoric, impossible targets, and yet more pressure on ordinary Europeans to pay for an ideology that refuses to face physics. Jacob Reynolds sits down with Samuel Furfari, engineer, former senior Commission official, and author of The Truth About COPs, 30 Years of Illusions, to dismantle the green mythology that Brussels treats as holy writ. Why have CO₂ emissions risen 65% since COP began? Why do China and India thrive while Europe de-industrialises? Why is “renewable energy” a fairytale built on fossil fuels? And why is the COP system, after three decades, little more than a travelling theatre for globalists who preach sacrifice while flying private? If you want to understand why Europe’s energy policy is collapsing, and what should replace the climatist dogma, this conversation is essential.
