XR Nijmegen has protested yesterday at the citiy council meeting against plans to grant energy firm ENGIE to construct a new gas power plant at the outskirts of the city. ENGIE says the plant will be powered with so called green hydrogen.
While green hydrogen is a highly inefficient energy storage medium as such, the power plant can be used with fossil gas (often euphemistically called 'natural' gas) as well. Activists fear that this a greenwashing scheme of ENGIE that allows to construct yet new fossil fuelled infrastructure in the midst of the looming #climatecatastophy.#nijmegen #xr #extinctionrebellion #climate #climatecris #ClimateEmegency #nederland #netherlands @extinctionrebellionnl

Brigitte Wear and Vatan Hüzeir in the Q&A session after their amazing talks today at our symposium on "mapping fossil ties" at #Wageningen University.
Maybe Vatans talk will be made publically available soon - I keep you posted!
After their talks the rougjly 60 participants were distributed to workshops on how to gain critical information on the influence of the fossil lobby on universities, e.g. by freedom of information acts📄.
The outcomes will be documented by these cool guys here:

Former Australian PM Tony Abbott Joins UK Climate Denial Group
https://www.desmog.com/2023/02/06/former-australian-pm-tony-abbott-joins-uk-climate-denial-group/Ex-Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott has joined the UK’s main climate denial group saying: "We need more science," and in the next breath, "No, not like that."
The Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) has consistently injected anti-science, climate change denial, shonky politics, and outright lies into climate change discussions.
