No Climate Finance from G20? New "Survivaballs" Offer Perfect Alternative for Surviving Climate Catastrophe
G20 failure to address $150 billion climate finance gap creates market opportunity for invididual climate protection units
Pittsburgh, PA, 25 -- With the G20 poised to deliver a resounding silence on the scale of climate finance commitments from rich countries, sales representatives from Survivaball Inc leaped to showcase their alternative, cost-effective approach to protecting human life from climate catastrophe: the Survivaball.
"The rich-country leaders in the G20 apparently don't see a priority in funding global climate action to save millions of lives," said Ben Wikler, a senior account executive for SurvivaBall Inc and campaign director for Avaaz.org. "Now that the wealthiest few people can save themselves with stylish, comfortable Survivaballs, the fate of the world's poorest five billion needn't keep any rich-country leaders up at night?."
The Survivaball Model X7, billed as a 'gated community for one', encases individuals in weatherproof, self-sufficient bubbles that allow them to survive climate catastrophes caused by failures of political leadership.
"The G20 leaders, by failing to even reference the need for $150 billion in annual climate funding, demonstrated their interest in more cost-effective and targeted solutions. SurvivaBall is here for them," added Wikler.
"We are working with the world's most trusted corporations to provide a high-tech, profitable, and, dare we say, beautiful solution to weathering even the worst climate-induced catastrophes," said Lauren Larken from New York, the company’s CEO of strategic marketing and brand management.
