  1. I realise things are not quite right when a fellow passenger cries she wants to be left ar the shore because the sea is too rough. Maybe the border official was right in ordering not to travel by boat. The passenger literally throws her little child to the crew at front of the boat, maybe thinking to save his life.

    I'll arrive in Aitape completely drenched after 6 hours of navigation. The money inside my supposedly water-proof waist belt is so wet I have to hang it up to dry. Good thing a fellow passenger takes me to a comfortable guesthouse. I can rest.... but not for long....

  11. New job, new film, new book...Merci Olivier Monod @libe Liberation for summarising my 2025 so far!
    Indeed I accepted a job offer @ Masaryk University in Czechia. They have a programme on regional peripheries that seems perfect to continue my research on the effects of climate change & market integration on indigenous communities in Papua New Guinea (PNG) (among my other research on social cohesion).

    The film "The Researcher" by @produzionifuorifuoco has already been screened in 13 different countries around the world and recently won the award for "Best Educational Pathway Film" @ International Frome Climate Film Festival.

    Finally, my book "A fuoco" (Zooming in) has just been published by @feltrinelli_. It’s the diary of my 28,000 km #NoFly journey from PNG to Europe to reduce my carbon footprint.

    Many people ask me if losing my job was "worthwhile". These outcomes would make one feel that it was. But, honestly, I would have done the same even if no one had talked about my story and I hadn't "achieved" anything. For me, the important thing was to remain true to my "climate conscience". I couldn't have done otherwise.

  12. Highlighting for #SolarPunkSunday:

    @breadandcircuses Let's talk about #Degrowth...

    "Imagine an economy designed to serve the planet and ALL its inhabitants, not just the most powerful. What might that look like?
    ______________________________________

    Countries that have overshot ecological limits would scale back their non-essential production and consumption to lessen environmental impacts and to decarbonise more rapidly by:

    ❇️ Reducing reliance on cheap fossil energy
    ❇️ Reducing the use of material-intensive luxuries like SUVs, private jets, and oversized homes
    ❇️ Stopping unsustainable practices such as the industrial production of meat and the culture of fast fashion
    ❇️ Curbing the wealth excesses of the very rich
    ❇️ Promoting public transportation over private vehicle use
    ❇️ Fostering a culture of durability and repairability in consumer goods

    Simultaneously, the focus would shift toward enhancing social progress and human well-being by:

    🔷 Guaranteeing universal access to high-quality essential public services like healthcare, education, childcare, and transportation
    🔷 Ensuring affordable housing and living wages for all
    🔷 Implementing a public job guarantee; a nationally-funded program where the municipal government provides jobs to those willing and able to work

    Embracing these changes does *not* mean rejecting technology. A balanced approach where technological innovation and efficiency improvements are pursued as long as they are sustainable, safe, and equitable should be encouraged. The focus is on using resources efficiently, distributing them fairly, and scaling down non-essential production to help societies achieve self-sufficiency and justice."

  13. Aviation will be one of the hardest sectors to #decarbonize. We found that electrochemical fuels (e-fuels) will require (much) more innovation to become part of the solution. Absent strong policy signals, it's not likely to take off. ✈️ In the meantime, hop on a train. 🚅 www.rand.org/pubs/researc...

  14. Great 1.000km train travel from Brno to Milan. Truly love night trains by @unsereOEBB. No wonder trains are fully packed. With @Eurail 2 days of travel cost €100.
    ✈️=215kg
    🚗=166kg
    🚌=30kg
    🚄= 5kg

  15. Decarbonization is sound economic policy, says the International Monetary Fund:

    "The economic benefits of accelerating the transition to low-carbon economy vastly outweigh its cost."

  16. "Last year at #COP28, governments committed to transition away from #fossilfuels. The next key step to make good on this landmark energy agreement is rich countries agreeing to a new #climate finance goal of at least $1 trillion annually to make this possible. This will allow countries to deliver national climate plans (NDCs) due in 2025 that phase out fossil fuels." oilchange.org/publications/roa

  17. it is expected to produce around 10TWh every year, all of this with the same water temperature than the orther pressurised light water reactors, a nice performance and a good way to get rid of fossil fuel production.

  18. congrats to the #french #flamanville team for the long expected #divergence of the #EPR !

    This new reactor will produce electricity as much as 1600MW by the end of the year 2024, it will be joined to the #EU electricity network in a few days, when reaching progressivly its max power.

  19. Thanks to #China having done the investing into green tech infrastructure and logistics for manufacturing, something the US should have done and benefited from but stuck to subsidizing #carbon fuels instead, data shows that we could completely #decarbonize global electricity by 2030, five years earlier than Biden's bill called for though thanks to tariffs might take the Us longer than everyone else. This will of course leave manufacturing energy like Steel and concrete, as well as shipping and airlines. With pure carbon batteries we could electrolize manufacturing much faster than expected, After that it will require global agreements to force shipping to go full #electric and airlines have to figure out an alternative to fuel such as hydrogen. The LN2 #energy storage system is a powerful method of storing and releasing energy with new tech and will in the process also pull CO2 out of the air. Its possible we could inspite of everything thanks to China survive the worst of climate change and even start to reverse it.

  26. @breadandcircuses "... hard-to-#decarbonize sectors such as the steel, chemical, and cement industries."

    #Steel #SSAB's first batches of CO2 emission free steel already sold to #Volvo.

    #Concrete, #Carbonaide's concrete is a carbon sink fully compatible with Portland cement mixtures.

    Chemical sector is varied and large and so are the solutions but mainly it's CO2 + hydrogen = complex hydrocarbons.

  32. "avec l'impression du #PTEF (le plan de transformation de l'économie française pour la transition énergétique) on a été examiner chaque candidat à la présidentielle pour voir ce que leur programme prévoit de faire pour faire face à la crise climatique. on a été sympa on leur a donné le corrigé avant de revenir vers nous."
    XD classique Jancovici.

    le livre du PTEF est très facile à lire et montre à quel points tous les changements sont reliés tout en prenant en compte la désirabilité de ces changements, et en ne préconisant de faire des choses efficaces en majorité sans avoir besoin des décisions d'autres acteurs géopolitiques.

    bon au final le Shift a conclu que très très peu de candidats donnent des billes pour rien que le sujet le plus déterminant de l'avenir de l'humanité toute entière. (quelle surprise dites donc)
    il paraît cependant que la neutralité carbone en 2050 est une idée acquise à l'ensemble des partis, ce qui ne transparaît pas du tout dans ce que j'en perçois de leur communication dans mes propres bulles de filtre.
    Pour le Shift suite à l'examen, la France insoumise fait un meilleur score de prise en compte et de réponse adéquate sur presque tous les secteurs du PTEF, loin devant EELV et tous les autres.

    allez jeter un œil aux divers programmes en direct des différents partis vous ne serez pas déçus.

    #EnergyWars

    It's really high-time that the #West #decarbonize so that it can't be blackmailed by authoritarian states.
    This is something for the medium and longer term.
    In the short term, the #G7 should quickly analyze which goods the #OPEC states cannot easily substitute from #India and #China .
    Make no mistake, the #EnergyWars, started by #Russia, but carried on by all of #OPEC+ are in full swing.

    The G7 must...
