Vandaag opnieuw zeer hoge stroomprijzen in NL / NW-Europa.

Voor een belangrijk deel aangejaagd door DE (en DK), die na sluiting eigen back-up bij wind-arm winterweer op hun buurlanden rekenen.
Best gek, dat dit zomaar kan. Vindt u niet?

Operatie Schone Kempen: β€œNiet alleen de gronden, maar ook de Kempense politiek is toe aan een stevige sanering”
Bergen afvalzout, vervallen handgel, bouwpuin en chemicaliΓ«n: de maffia van de Kempen steekt het allemaal in de grond, desnoods op het eigen erf. De lokale politieke machthebbers huilen, maar de vraag is of hun handen wel zo zuiver zijn?

Ukraine is demanding nearly $44 billion from Russia for climate damage caused by the war, Reuters reports. Kyiv says the invasion has produced around 237 million tonnes of extra CO2, from fuel use, destroyed industry and wartime fires. It’s the first claim of its kind. Moscow has offered no comment.

About 1m Ford diesel cars sold in UK with defective emissions controls, court told
Ford denies having created β€˜defeat devices’ in legal action on behalf of 1.6 million owners against five carmakers About a million Ford diesel cars were sold in the UK with serious defects in components supposed to curb toxic exhaust emissions, the high court has been told. The highly polluting vehicles were produced and sold between 2016 and 2018 after Ford’s engineers became aware of the issues, and many were never formally recalled or fixed, lawyers said.

Today is Health Day at #COP30!

When health leads, #ClimateAction follows. WHO is working with countries to:

🌿 Detect and prevent climate-related diseases

πŸ‘₯ Put people's health at the centre of climate action

A colourful graphic with a textured pink, orange and green background. At the top right is the World Health Organization logo. In the centre, white text reads: β€œHealthy people mean a healthy planet.” Below it, a black box with green text says: β€œWatch the Health Day event live from COP 30.”

Aan vooravond van COP30 in BraziliΓ« de CO2-eq. emissie per inwoner volgens de UN.
Rusland is nu koploper. China scoort veel hoger dan EU; vooral door hun kolenaandeel, tevens omdat EU veel productie naar China heeft verplaatst. EU noteert dat als 'klimaatwinst'.

Emissions in the coming decades lock in centuries of sea-level rise. A study in Nature Climate Change with VUB shows current policies add 0.3m by 2300. But strong mitigation can still avoid 0.6m of future rise, protecting coasts like Flanders. @natclimate.nature.com

Vannacht veel wind en weinig stroomvraag, wat resulteerde in een gemiddelde CO2-emissie van slechts circa 80 gram per geleverde kWh.
Gewoonlijk kunt u echter het beste 's middags stofzuigen en de was doen, als u minimale CO2 nastreeft.

It also links to their own previous articles on the studies (common journalistic practice), which in turn also directly link to the studies.

The EU still relies heavily on imported fossil fuels in most sectors.

This does not have to be the case – the EU power sector has relatively low fossil reliance – just 19%.

Electrification can increase EU energy security with homegrown wind and solar.
