Jude S. Ngu'Ewodo's Climate Crisis Unmasked Blog

Jude S. Ngu'Ewodo is the Author of: Climate Crisis Unmasked: Unraveling the web of Betrayal and Greed available in Amazon and all online stores . In 2025, history has come full circle. The United States, under its new president, has once again announced its withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord (Here we go again!). The decision, draped in rhetoric about protecting American jobs and sovereignty, lands with a dull thud on a planet already smoldering. The ice caps are melting faster than ever, California wildfires have become an annual multi-billion-dollar catastrophe, and global insurance payouts for climate-related disasters surpassed $300 billion in 2024 . Yet here we are, walking away from the one table where the world gathers to address the problem. The Critics’ Case: Flawed from the Start The critics’ perspective isn’t new, but it hasn’t aged well. They argue the Accord is a raw deal, shackling the U.S. economy with draconian emission cuts while letting developing coun...

Author: Jude S. Ngu'Ewodo YESTERDAY WAS DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY. HERE IS ONE OF HIS PROFOUND REFLECTIONS, WHICH I HOPE MANY TOOK TIME TO REVISIT, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO CHAMPION "CIVILITY NO MATTER WHAT": Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. often critiqued the role of white moderates and liberals in the struggle for civil rights, particularly in his seminal work, "Letter from Birmingham Jail" (1963). Here is the relevant quote: "I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to 'order' than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: 'I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action'; who paternalistically feels that he ...

  California Wildfires: A Grim Warning for Us All 🔥 Whether you believe the wildfire catastrophe in California is linked to climate change or not, I don’t really care. You can spin it however you want—landscape effects, “Kamine-Effekt,” or any other theory. The brutal truth is this: with just a little help from our friend called rain, this disaster could have been far less devastating. But there hasn’t been rain in California for nine months. And drought is inextricably linked to the climate crisis. The worst is yet to come. This isn’t just about scorched earth or lost homes—it’s about your wealth, your future.Catastrophes like this will strip you of your security. Insurance premiums will skyrocket or disappear altogether. One day, you might become a refugee in your own country, fleeing from one ravaged region to another.   💥 The cost of disasters has exploded—from 2000 to now, billion-dollar losses have become the norm.   For deeper insights into the unfolding climate ...

Nuclear Power: The Trojan Horse of Energy Economics Let me jog your memory. Remember that post where I dismantled the myth that nuclear power is an economic savior compared to wind energy? Oh, how we laughed at those “cost-efficient” calculations that conveniently left out key details. Well, buckle up—because it gets worse. The nuclear negative list is uglier than even my conservative analysis suggested.   The Flamanville Saga: A Case Study in Nuclear Nightmares Take Flamanville, the infamous 1600 MW nuclear power plant. Originally budgeted at €3.3 billion, it’s now clocking in at a staggering €19 billion—and it’s still counting! That’s not just mission creep; that’s mission  disaster .   But wait, there’s more. Over its entire lifecycle, my latest analysis shows that the real market (not the shady dictator-dealing kind) cost of the feedstock required—uranium or plutonium—could skyrocket to an eye-watering  $5 billion . Yes, that’s billion with a “B.” And if you thin...

 As per this video ( https://youtu.be/Jo8Lo1-ebRE?si=Yu8BJqVQCHlV1yyc ), France's president suggests Africa has forgotten to thank France for its "good deeds." Allow me, with utmost humility, to rectify this oversight with a heartfelt letter of gratitude A Letter of Gratitude to Monsieur le Président Emmanuel Macron From Your Ever-Grateful African Siblings Cher Monsieur le Président, On behalf of the billions of ungrateful Africans across this vast, sunburnt continent, allow me to extend our sincerest apologies. We are ashamed. Truly ashamed. How could we, in our infinite folly, forget to thank La Grande Nation for its unparalleled acts of benevolence? Thank you, France, for gracing the shores of Africa with your glorious "civilizing mission," a noble endeavor that turned proud kingdoms into obedient vassals. Without your enlightened guidance, we might still be speaking our barbaric tongues, dancing to drums, and governing ourselves in ways far too complex for e...
