Käsittämätöntä: Sakatin kaivokselle on myönnetty 150 miljoonan euron verotuki, vaikka kaivos on ristiriidassa nykyisen lainsäädännön kanssa eikä kaivoksella ole lupia toiminnalleen.

ICYMI: Meeting China's Paris Agreement commitments for 2030 requires keeping CO2 emissions falling, which in turn requires that current wind&solar targets are exceeded by a wide margin. The good news is that every single previous wind&solar target has been overachieved.

After a big fall in coal-fired power generation in November, the CO2 emissions from China’s three largest emitting sectors - power, steel and cement - are almost certain to fall in 2025.

The Trump regime wants to dismantle a world leading climate research center. Why? Because the US has become a petrostate where the government has been captured by fossil fuel interests.
They’re calling climate science “green new scam research”, in full denial of reality. 🤯

A recent study by Dutch colleagues shows that a shutdown of the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC could bring extreme drought to Europe for centuries.
That is a thus far underappreciated risk of climate change.

There are many reasons I feel as if lack of capability for strategic thinking is an entry requirement among the far right.

This is one.

Finland ages at near record rate AND borders a predatory Great Power. Its young - who'd have to fight for it - are increasingly the children of immigrants.

And:
This government is arguably the most right-wing government in the history of independent Finland, and the far right party and its supporters make it clear that they don't consider anyone with a darker skin a real Finn.

In a rapidly aging country, this is not just evil, but stupid in so many ways.

Most young people are worried, as they should be, about the impact that AI will have on their lives and their ability to earn a decent living.

Our job is not complicated. We must make certain that AI and robotics improve life for all, and not just make billionaires even richer.

Heavy-industry sectors like cement have long struggled to decarbonise because their processes require very high temperatures.

That’s why the new Rondo Energy heat-battery project in Thailand is such a big deal - powering a cement plant with low-carbon steam.

Clinker production, the main ingredient in cement, is the primary source of CO2 in cement manufacturing.

By replacing clinker with other materials like fly ash, slag, or other industrial byproducts, the need for this energy-intensive and carbon-releasing process is significantly decreased.

Now that we are likely to cross 1.5°C, there is increasing discussion on "overshoot".

There is a lot of uncertainties on overshoot, but there is one thing that we are 100% sure about:

GHG emissions need to go down >90% in decades for overshoot to be a reality.
