Must Watch: Guyana President Lights Up BBC Host Who Tries To Climate Shame Him Over Extracting Oil

I'd like to introduce you to Mohamed Irfaan Ali, President of Guyana.

What he did in the face of climate activism being thrown at him has now gone viral (almost 3 million views on the video below) and it isn't hard to see why.

BBC host Stephen Sackur essentially asked him during an interview isn't it a bad thing for you guys to extract $150 billion of oil and gas off your coast because of the carbon emissions that would ultimately be released into the atmosphere?

Ali's response is just pure gold.

He stops Sackur cold and then just rips him a new one.

First, Ali tells him they have a huge forest in Guyana that basically makes them carbon neutral because of how large it is, "a forest we have kept alive." Sackur says, "Does that give you the right to release all of this carbon…" Ali interrupts him, "Does that give you right to lecture us on climate change?"
