WEF's message is backfiring. But here's its essence:

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. He only *looks* like he eats babies, and just stepped off the set of Bad Taste.
He's a deeply caring individual, who has selflessly put the world before his own interests.

"Nature" could quite easily be debated and its role in national and local policymaking contested democratically.... e.g. "do we want this development, or should we keep the land as it is?"
But "biodiversity" makes the parameters of such choices intangible.
The Conservative Environment Network is an anti-democratic front organisation for the European Climate Foundation, which has lobbied politicians behind closed doors, using funds from a small number of billionaire's "philanthropic" foundations.
