A lot of this is because they see plastics as the way to keep on extracting oil even if countries decide that burning it isn't a good idea.

Saudi Arabia is cancer. I'm sorry to all the people that were born there.
The projects that are getting build there are using labourers from third world country in the most inhumane conditions still going unnoticed.
Same here in case of plastics.Let the world go to hell but the Sheikh s get their coffers filled with cash.
Unnoticed? We have known for years, we are just unwilling to do anything about it.
Its still unnoticed by the world. Meant its open truth but nobody is doing nothing.
Unnoticed implies that it is a problem of informing the public.
The public (the publ8c who cares about issues and reads news) already knows. Our politicians just talk it away and do nothing to address it.
Go on, give 'em a world cup
It started with Qatar .... And then the story continues.
Didn’t the US hold one or two?
Yuh yuh...US has one coming in the nearby future.
Name a country that hosted that isn’t guilty of something past or present.
Brazil ! IMO , there doesn't seem to be any human rights issue as far as I remember.
The indigenous peoples losing their lands to farmers and ranchers might say otherwise.
The root of evil remains the economic system. If there’s profit to be made from suffering it will be made.
Indeed.
Evil is everywhere with capitalism. The point is that where there is a slight bit of chance to reduce the level of evilistic ideas , it should be tried at least.
Qatar is a very rich country with ample of money. It could have properly facilitated with a bit of human treatment for the foreign labourers coming from not so rich countries in order to earn and provide for their family. Was it impossible to do? I have heard that the rules are quite strict in countries like Qatar , Saudi , UAE regarding corruption.
USA , Brazil and etc etc are also evil in the name of capitalism. I agree.
Qatar is a very rich country with ample of money. It could have properly facilitated with a bit of human treatment for the foreign labourers coming from not so rich countries in order to earn and provide for their family.
The universal truth about rich people everywhere, is that they never feel like they have enough money.
Also, no human rights. Except if you believe in brainrot bullshit and are a straight male.
Agree with that ... No-human rights at all
U meant complete cocked male ?
It is the Saudi royal family that is the cancer
As a Saudi who was born and live there, it has always baffled me how, despite the government and royal family being comically evil, the majority will still support them.
Even if you tell them and show them proof of the horrible crimes against humanity that happens daily, they'll either try to justify it, or brush it off saying "doesn't affect me".
يحسبونك مباحث تبغى توديهم ورا الشمس.
If you were Saudi you would have known the answer to this. 🥕🏒
Hypocritical coming from a German -I guess-. You can stop pretending to have any moral authority when your governments are supporting genocide.
I worked for a Saudi plastics company and we had German companies as customers.
Ah yes, and because you worked with some german companies you know exactly that I like genocide. Got it.
