DAVOS: The rich and powerful are in Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum’s 50th annual meeting, and the gathering is being closely watched to see how the global elite aims to tackle problems they helped create, above all climate change.
Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, who called a climate strike for Friday (Jan 24) near the forum, slammed delegates for failing to treat global warming as a crisis and that her calls to the corporate elite meeting in Davos to disinvest immediately in fossil fuels had been ignored .
