"Why are the targets for reducing emissions not being met or now even agreed? The answer is money. Despite the harm, the world’s governments provided $956bn in direct fossil fuel subsidies in 2023."

Thank you so much for clarifying the difference between growth and amount @ashwinvis

"Wielding the power of #credit, commercial banks get to determine the allocation of investment and therefore determine what gets produced."

Sovereign states can easily "impose rules that limit the quantity of finance that commercial banks can invest in problem sectors."

Financial institutions should have stopped supporting #coal companies years ago. So far, only 88 top financial institutions – less than 23% – have adopted a coal policy including an explicit restriction for coal developers

@DrALJONES @AndiiB
I agree that our language should be plain.

• Nation-states do not reimburse debt. (They restructure it.)
• Nation-states can obtain funding by issuing they own money (or credit).
• Nation-states invest or spend as much as they want by issuing they own money (or credit).

There is no #transition:
Climate policies reduce annual GHG #emissions by about 1 Gt/year (0.6 to 1.8 giga-tonnes of CO₂-equivalent/year): https://www.inet.ox.ac.uk/publications/climate-policies-that-achieved-major-emission-reductions-global-evidence-from-two-decades
So, policies of climate change #mitigation achieve 2% of the requirements. Emissions continue at around 50 times more: http://data.yt/projections/2024-results.html#overview-chart

SOTEU: Little new policy but plenty of politics ahead of von der Leyen’s key speech https://www.euractiv.com/section/eu-institutions/news/soteu-little-new-policy-but-plenty-of-politics-ahead-of-von-der-leyens-key-speech/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #climatepolicies #EUmigrationpolicy #StateoftheUnion

@aarnegranlund it sounds like Finland is more conducive to #climatepolicies that work hand in hand with #housing than many other countries. In the UK, housing accounts for more than 1/4 of #carbonemissions. That’s the result of a policy of doing nothing about #insulation or #retrofitting.
Likewise my first post’s point is that the #aviation sector is so #subsided that it undermines the #rail sector. Another policy decisions.
