Check out the latest publication of the stunning investigative journalism project by @jonathanmoens.bsky.social and @thojbauer.bsky.social in @mongabay.bsky.social, refering to our empirical study on green grabbing for renewable energy in Brazil @naturesustain.bsky.social

Our empirical research on large-scale green grabbing for renewables in Brazil @naturesustain.bsky.social (link here ➡️ www.nature.com/articles/s41...) motivated @jonathanmoens.bsky.social and @thojbauer.bsky.social to dig deeper in an investigative journalism project. Congratulations, fantastic work!

This is a joint collaboration with the @bokuvienna.bsky.social researchers @mklingler.bsky.social, @fionalilith.bsky.social, @daniel-gerdes.bsky.social, Jana Plöchl, Patrick Scherhaufer and Nathalie Spittler, realized within the Horizon Europe project TANDEM (tandem-heu.eu).

In addition, we assess various leverage points co-designed by citizens and stakeholders to promote a socially just energy transition, and discuss options such as reconciling split incentives, expanding rent control and decommodified housing. 5/n

From a systemic perspective, we show how rising rents and energy costs strain disposable income, reinforcing dynamics among income, stress, renunciation and mental health. We highlight policy flaws that may exacerbate energy and housing vulnerabilities, esp. for tenants and low-income groups. 4/n

Based on different stakeholder and citizen perspectives, we identify a variety of local challenges and obstacles to the energy transition that are linked to five dimensions of social justice: distributive, procedural, recognitional, and intergenerational justice as well as intersectionality. 3/n

In the city of Innsbruck rents and shares of fossil fuel-based heating systems are among the highest in Austria. To boost a low-carbon energy transition, policies primarily target the promotion of energy efficiency. However, technology-driven solutions raise a series of intersectional issues. 2/n

Decarbonizing the building sector is a key priority in the European energy transition. We analyze systemic impacts of transition policies, focusing on co-designing potential leverage points to mitigate housing and energy vulnerabilities in Innsbruck, Austria. 1/n

Austria has the ambitious goal of becoming climate neutral by 2040. Until recently, no climate neutrality scenarios were available for the energy sector. Today, our four scenarios and the accompanying analysis have been published. A thread with key insights 1/n

Da draußen kursieren ziemlich viele Missinformationen zu Windkraft. Um den tatsächlichen Stand des Wissens darzustellen, haben wir über 400 Artikel aus der wissenschaftlichen Literatur in einem Reviewartikel zusammengefasst. Im kurzweilig gehaltenen Thread gibt's eine Zusammenfassung:
