"Unsere Aufgabe: von der Politik Rahmenbedingungen zu fordern in denen wir uns für klimaschonendes Verhalten nicht verbiegen müssen.

Denn die Politik muss jetzt endlich handeln. #COP26

The #G20 poured record levels of public money into #fossilfuels last year despite having promised to reduce some of it, a report has found.Public money is still flowing into industry despite agreement to phase out ‘inefficient’ subsidies despite #Cop26 pledges, thinktank says. The amount of public money flowing into #coal, #oil and #gas in 20 of the world’s biggest #economies reached a record $1.4tn(£1.1tn) in 2022! https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/aug/23/g20-poured-more-than-1tn-on-fossil-fuel-subsidies-despite-cop26-pledges-report #climatechange #climatecrisis

Two years after objecting to being frozen out of the #COP26 UN climate conference in Glasgow, the #oil & #gas industry is expecting a v different reception at #COP28, with host UAE 🇦🇪 stressing importance of #FossilFuel producers having a seat at the table https://www.argusmedia.com/en//news/2481311-big-oil-gets-its-place-at-the-climate-table

A plan outlining some #climate solutions, by Prof. @jasonhickel - published years ago, after #COP26 :

https://www.currentaffairs.org/2021/11/what-would-it-look-like-if-we-treated-climate-change-as-an-actual-emergency

"The single most important intervention is the one that so far no government has been willing to touch: #cap #fossil #fuel use and scale it down, on a binding annual schedule, until the industry is mostly dismantled by the middle of the century. That’s it. This is the only fail-safe way to stop climate breakdown"

During #cop26, Sunday hours were extended to 8-22:00. Delegates received passes allowing for free transit within Glasgow & Edinburgh.

Ordinary folk can buy ZoneCards (seasonal tickets which aren’t smart-integrated) for trains, subway & some busses n ferries. Pay per zone, to cover Glasgow city is £75 a month & all which include coverage to #Ayr, #Garelochhead & #Carstairs would be £270 monthly - excluding night busses too.

#firstBus trying to wriggle out of providing night busses, shambles.

The UK has gone backward on energy transition since COP26, says outgoing NZTC boss. Despite pledging to phase out coal by 2024, the UK has recently increased its reliance on fossil fuels. This could undermine its credibility as a global leader in climate action and jeopardize its net-zero target by 2050.

It’s been a long time since I took an exam as opposed to marking one but inspired by Climate Fringe at #COP26 I enrolled for a #Permaculture Design Certificate as CPD

Last night I passed my final assessment.

I am all certified. 😁

Sanctuary-making for restorative living.

Karishma Mehrotra: In #India, ‘phase down’ of #coal # actually means rapid expansion of mining

"At the 2021 global climate forum in Glasgow known as #COP26, India publicly promised a 'phase down' of coal. But that doesn’t actually mean that India will use less — only that it will gradually generate a smaller proportion of its overall energy with coal. In absolute terms, the country expects its coal production and consumption to expand dramatically as its energy needs skyrocket in the coming decades because of economic growth."

With great fanfare, the world agreed at the #COP26 climate change summit in 2021 to "phase-out [...] inefficient fossil fuel subsidies"

A year later, spending in fossil fuel consumption subsidies climbed to a record high of more than $1 trillion, according to new @IEA estimates

Here's a thought: let's stop electing politicians who use tax dollars to subsidize our executioners.
