    Global shift towards clean electricity could trigger ‘cascade’ of progress, helping reduce air pollution, cut waste and revive oceans

    Excerpt: "The report, produced by the University of Exeter with the Earthshot prize, applies tipping point science to 51 priority areas across five environmental goals: protecting nature, cleaning the air, reviving oceans, eliminating waste and tackling the climate crisis.

    "Smith said positive tipping points could be understood as the beneficial counterpart to dangerous climate thresholds, such as the collapse of ice sheets or the death of coral reefs.

    " 'Tipping points can also work in our favour,' he said. The rapid growth of solar power, wind power and electric vehicles, as well as the recovery of some natural systems, showed beneficial change could accelerate after reaching a critical threshold.

    "However, the transition to clean power is being impeded by slow planning and grid expansion, particularly in wealthier economies, and a severe lack of investment elsewhere. Africa receives less than 2% of global clean energy investment despite possessing 60% of the world’s best solar resources, according to the report.

    "Research cited in the analysis suggests coordinated policies supporting clean power, transport and heating could bring forward tipping points in those sectors by between two and eight years. Progress in one sector makes the others easier by increasing demand for clean electricity, encouraging investment and driving costs down further.

    "Transforming global commodity supply chains is identified as another high-impact intervention. A relatively small number of #companies, #banks and regulators control trade in commodities including #beef, #soy, #PalmOil, #timber, #cocoa and #coffee, which together drive much of the world’s tropical #deforestation."

  10. @jeremycorbyn london.gov.uk/who-we-are/what-

    If you are #young and can not afford #house #home #family and wonder why everything becomes more #prices #expensive this is no1 reason:

    number of empty #homes in #London has risen by 81 per cent from 58,096 in 2016 to 105,138 in 2025.

    #why ?

    #bank print #money buy #realthings = #price up, does not care #makesense or not

    what #banks need to be forced to by #law instead : give #cheap #gov backed #loan to #young people with #ideas for #product and #services #startup #startups #innovation = real #labor that ideally makes #paper #money worth more, #fuckthisshit #realestate #emptyprivateproperty #property

  11. "AI" is WordCoin

    - @burnitdown #Quote

    #Quotes

    My comment / comparison :

    A Bank is also quite the same
    - investing your #savings in #war,
    - giving it to bad / profitable people
    - lending so it dilutes all existing money to cheapen it etc

    I don't agree with #Banks either (give them something but take away much more from people).

    Happy to hear what you think about my comment about AI vs. Banks. And I like the #WordCoin name you mentioned.

  12. - #Bank accounts can be shut down anytime (people kept it under their mattress because it's self-managed)

    - #Banks lend out your savings to #bad #projects / #people) for big profit:

    #War / #Guns / #Genocide / #Tanks

    Lending devalues all money:

    1 - the face-value of all other money dilutes when people repeatedly pay loans

    - as we pay fees, all money devalues

    Re-lending our earned money to bad people behind our backs is terrible loss of #values.

    We have to quit banks and use something else.

  13. Idag ska jag hjälpa min 80-åriga mamma att flytta Mobilt Bank-ID till sin nya telefon.

    Be för mig.

    Be för den telefon jag kommer hålla i handen när jag pratar med supporten.

    Be för alla som har godkänt denna process.

    Detta är 3e dagen jag arbetar med samma uppgift.

    Gud hjälp mig!

    Edit: 5tim senare och problemet är inte löst. Fortfarande på ruta 1. Banken uppmanade henne att starta om mobilen, och återkom om 24tim om inte löst.

    Read the pinned post on my profile.

    There are a few institutions that work in collusion to run people’s lives, and form the basis of the #Matrix.

    1. #Schools
    2. #Churches
    3. #Governments
    4. #Corporations
    5. #Media
    6. #Banks

    Once I became a #whistleblower against the system, in 2023, #WellsFargo #bank would not give me my own money. They still have not.

    ( Details: whistleblower.lovestoblog.com/ )

    It’s time for the biblical prophecy to come true, and the money lenders to be kicked out.

    Here’s how:

    AlohaCoin v2 redistributes wealth, and brings about #degrowth

    With full bellies, people have the courage to break free of the Matrix, and #disobey leaders. Political, religious, military, corporate leaders etc.

    Little incentive for #crime, #war, #violence.

    So even doctors (seen in your pic) should / could do things for free* / not put need money* and that could be the nature of all work?

    *= if you can also assume #true that:
    1- all #money and #banks are bad powers of people mixed in to all our good lives as we use / transact / let them use the money behind our back for bad things incl #war
    2- at the same time we make a #paygate for everything?
