You cannot increase fossil fuel production AND address climate breakdown at the same time

This is not just opinion; it has been objectively concluded in reports by the Independent Panel on Climate Change, by the United Nations and by the #UK Government's own Climate Change Committee. Across the world, thousands of independent, forensically peer-reviewed scientific studies spanning a period of decades also agree

It is increasingly evident that high levels of meat consumption are associated with a rapidly deteriorating climate. Livestock farming accounts for around 20 percent of all human-caused greenhouse gas emissions — that’s more than the exhaust emissions from the world’s cars, trucks, planes and ships combined. Large swaths of rainforest are being cut down to create cow pastures or soybean fields for feed

As the climate in the studied grassland became drier and warmer, resource-acquisitive plants responded rapidly to limited water and declined their species richness and functional diversity, leading to community-level diversity decreased. In the meanwhile, resource-conservative plants, the dominating species in this grassland community, remained relatively stable, contributing to the stable productivity

If this buildout continues, and if you counted the emissions from this gas against America’s totals, it would mean that American greenhouse gas emissions would not have budged since 2005. Under the arcane rules of global carbon accounting, exported hydrocarbons don’t count against our total—they’re the problem of the country that eventually burns them (in this case mostly in Asia). But the atmosphere doesn’t care; once burned

The new regulations come in response to the Environmental Justice Act, legislation Gov. Polis signed into law more than two years ago. It requires the industrial and manufacturing sector to cut climate-warming emissions 20 percent by 2030 relative to 2015 emissions levels and limit releases of associated toxins known to harm human health

Coalition at odds over transport sector measures in Germany's Climate Action Law reform

“If goals are being missed, there must be an automatic mechanism that guarantees that they are being abided by,” SPD parliamentary faction deputy leader Matthias Miersch said. Green Party member Lisa Badum argued the transport sector should not be allowed to freeride on the emissions reduction efforts in other parts of the economy

Several years ago, AT&T embarked on a forward-looking study of the changing climate-related hazards facing our network footprint. Working with researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory, models were built for projecting locations at risk of flooding, drought, and wildfires 30 years into the future. These maps now help identify areas to safely place cell towers and harden existing infrastructure for potential hazards.

The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, focuses on the naming and shaming mechanism built into the Paris Agreement’s Enhanced Transparency Framework (ETF). The ETF requires nations to publicly report their goals and progress towards meeting those goals. The study indicates that this mechanism is most effective in motivating countries that are already committed to slowing climate change

La Métropole de Lyon veut donner un coup d’accélérateur au plan climat

L’exécutif écologiste à la tête de la Métropole de Lyon veut renouveler son plan climat air énergie territorial (PCAET), précédemment adopté en 2019. Ce dernier fixait les objectifs jusqu’en 2030 & 2050. Le nouveau plan climat accélérerait la réduction des émissions de gaz à effets de serre et l’adaptation du territoire au changement climatique

Ambient air from the room is pumped into a tank containing the algae; this supplies the CO2. The algae are then harvested and transferred to a second tank that stimulates calcium carbonate production. This process is complete when all the algae sink to the bottom of the tank, where they’re then collected, dehydrated, and mixed with other natural binding agents. The result is a bio-cement; it’s then ready to be mixed with aggregates to create concrete
