President of the World Bank David Malpass committed a horrific environmental crime last Tuesday. Asked about his views on climate change, he replied: “I am not a scientist.

The saga started earlier when Al Gore called Mr. Malpass a “climate denier” and urged President Biden to fire him. It is unclear why Mr. Gore was so furious with Mr. Malpass. Regardless of his personal beliefs, the World Bank, under Mr. Malpass, gave a record $31.7 billion in fiscal year 2022 to “climate-related” initiatives.
