Appreciate the endorsement of this article from @jeppjournal.bsky.social. If you would be interested in a novel and long-missing approach of how adopted domestic policy influences the design of other policies, do take a look. Further work will also be presented at the COPPR conference, Bern, in Jan!

Since National took NZ Govt office with ACT Party and NZ First, my friends and I have all lost work. Prices have gone up. Env't protections have been removed. Politicians have attacked #PayEquity, safer roads, and trans rights. I don't trust that lot an iota. 🔬

National makes economic pitch after Trump tariffs setback

As the cost of living continues to loom large, the Prime Minister tries to convince voters his party can best tackle the issue – but global headwinds are hardly helping

Hvorfor klarer ikke Norge sine klimamål? Det er et viktig tema nå når vi har fått oppdaterte, men like uklare mål for klimaomstilling. Erlend Hermansen og jeg viser at mangelfull politisk styring som en viktig årsak. Se hvordan vi kan velge å gjøre det bedre her.

Det kan man lure på - og det ser det ut til de fleste i UH-(og instituttsektoren gjør også, dessverre. Men at det er en annen retning og vilje til å satse enn i Sverige er klart. Også at dette er både uttalt og villet:

Imports continue to be a fairly big part of how Ireland meets its electricity demand. But looking at overall numbers for 2024, it's quite similar to 2023, but domestic generation mix became cleaner, leading to a 8.5% drop in average grid carbon intensity, which is certainly welcome news.

Green Collective @greencollective.io · Jan 3

Irish electricity also slightly cleaner in 2024 than 2023 (making 2024 the cleanest ever). Preliminary 2023 v 2024 stats:
Low-carbon sources/generation: 42.2% v 42.4%
Low-carbon sources/demand: 38%v 37.5%
(Low-carbon+imports from GB)/demand: 49.5% v 50.2%
Grid carbon intensity (gCO2/kWh): 280 v 256

UK electricity cleanest ever in 2024, with record 58% from low-carbon sources

UK has more than halved amount of electricity generated from fossil fuels but gas still had largest share at 28%

Her har vi (dessverre) en sterk kontrast til Norges såkalte "satsning" på forskning i nåværende periode: Sverige ser ut til å gjøre en reell innsats. Det er vanskelig å forstå hvorfor Norge sakker akterut i denne konkurransen - tilsynelatende en villet politikk.

Sveriges forskningssatsing vekker oppsikt: — Vi skal ikke være det «passe bra» landet

— Vi skal konkurrere med de beste i verden, sier Sveriges minister for forskning og høyere utdanning, som øker forskningsbudsjettet med 6,5 milliarder svenske kroner.

Horizon Europe's overall budget is 95.5 BILLION euros. The gov't has decided that NZ's access to the portion of those $ that relates to humanities & social sciences isn't worth pursuing.

Horizon investment in our researchers would cost the NZ taxpayer next to nothing for huge investment & reward

Changes to MBIE’s Horizon Europe Top-Up fund scheme

Tēnā koutou

MBIE is providing an update on the Horizon Europe Top-Up funding scheme.

Change to Top-Up fund eligibility for projects in Cluster 2 

From 1 February 2025, projects in Cluster 2, Culture, Creativity & Inclusive Society, will no longer be eligible for funding through the MBIE Horizon Europe Top-Up funding scheme.

This change is being made to align the Top-Up fund settings with the Government’s priorities for Science, Innovation & Technology investments, and direction outlined in the Catalyst Fund investment Plan. Research organisations who have submitted a proposal for a Cluster 2 project which opened before 1 February 2025 and who registered for Top-Up funding with MBIE within 10 working days of the European Commission (EC) call for proposals closing will still be eligible for Horizon Europe Top-Up funding.

Men jeg antar du heller ikke mener at slike innlegg ikke skal kritiseres av meg eller andre, her eller andre steder?
