Our last blast for 2024 was this collaborative output with the #SabinCenterForClimateChangeLaw, a #RenewableEnergyMythDebunking.
One of 33 compact but solidly sourced treatments authored by Sabin and adapted for easy individual access via Skeptical Science.
This particular set of currently accurate facts is highly vulnerable to changing circumstances. Will it need revising over the next few years? We shall see.

"A key and underrated aspect of the recent triad of climate rulings of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) is that the ECtHR has brought to the fore the role of trade-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in states’ carbon footprints...As I will argue, the ruling all but requires Switzerland to adopt a climate-oriented trade policy."

It's too bad that just as with the US Constitution's sloppy language, the clarity of purpose for products of the US Congress often even more resembles the scribblings of drunks commemorating their thoughts on napkins, minutes before last bell.
Here, SCOTUS reading that work, playing the role of another mostly intoxicated bunch.
Congressional reply? After slipping under the bar? Doubtful.

For folks wanting an update on what's being planned for our future, including the specific path to "no you're not allowed to do that, it's too risky."
Leading to more questions, such as how this unpacks in the context of the "nine-dash line" and other currently emerging nose-thumbings at maritime law?

Surprisingly positive findings:
"Solar panels generate energy even in cloudy or cold conditions (Ramli et al. 2016). Although cloudy weather may reduce power generation by as much as 45%, substantial energy can still be generated during those conditions (Ramli et al. 2016 and Makrides et al. 2012)."
From our collaboratively adapted collection of #ClimateSolutionsMyths #debunkings, authored at the #SabinCenterForClimateChangeLaw.

"Stronger together!"
Having just launched our collaboration with the #SabinCenterForClimateChangeLaw, we continue our work with #Gigafact.
"Are most glaciers growing?" Obviously not, but how is the average person to know, in an information environment crowded by fossil fuel funded #ClimateBunk?
One way is by providing news providers and consumers with concise, factual #ClimateMythDebunkings.
Here's the latest ready-to-serve treatment for newsrooms.

Whether we call it #EnergyModernization or #EnergyTransition or #RenewableEnergy, with #ClimateChange becoming undeniable the fossilized parts of our energy industry are adapting tactics to keep us locked in the past-- and ruin our chances for #ClimateMitigation.
We collaborated with the #SabinCenterForClimateChangeLaw to adapt their comprehensive #debunking of #RenewableEnergyMyths for easier access. We're highlighting each of 33 articles, one per week.

Why is #ClimateProgress so slow?
Here's what dealing with our mess looks like down in the weeds, microscopic details of sand in the gears.
Grating friction at #SEC with #CDR rulemaking. And every single similar process must overwhelm an entrenched army of myopically self-interested resistance.

Sabin Center for Climate Change Law publishes summer-fall 2022 activities report. Lawyer boots hit the climate battlefield.
(And yeah, SCCCL needs to think harder about publication distribution channels. One can hear their credibility sizzling and evaporating in "issuu's" torrid terrarium of flaky advertisements. Anybody know somebody at Sabin?)
