Cette source d'énergie est responsable, dans le monde, de 43% des émissions mondiales de gaz à effet de serre, rappelle le site de statistiques du gouvernement français"

    What #Midterm election #BlueWave rebuke of #Trump means for #renewable energy

    by Bob Woods
    Sat, Nov 7 2026

    Excerpt: "The Trump administration’s rollback of #EnvironmentalRegulations, elimination of #CleanEnergy subsidies and tax credits, defunding and halting of #wind and #solar projects, and embrace of the #FossilFuels industry accelerated the backlash.

    "But #RenewableEnergy investing remains alive and well, notably among public and private funders of infrastructure projects and clean technology innovation. And following the midterm elections that gave climate-friendly Democrats control of the House and Senate, the prospects of reviving the clean energy agenda suddenly brightened.

    "Clean energy and solar stocks rallied the day after the election results, which 'potentially reduces the risk of further political interference with renewable energy incentives and provides greater protection for the long-term economics of U.S. wind, solar and #BatteryStorage investments,' Barclays analysts led by Peter Crampton wrote in a note."

    They will be voting as early as this week on the Bipartisan Affordability and Jobs Act. This bill scales back major environmental protections in order to speed up the approval process to build #datacenters and mine for #fossilfuels and minerals.

  8. "The Brazilian government will arrive at COP31with the “Roadmap for Moving Away from Fossil Fuels in Energy Systems.”

    The 182-page document is considered one of the legacies of Brazil’s presidency at COP30, held last year in Belém (PA). Presented on November 3, the text proposes an international strategy to gradually reduce dependence on oil, coal, and natural gas while accelerating the transition to low-emission energy sources.

    One of the main criticisms from environmental organizations regarding the Roadmap presented by Brazil is that the document offers a guide for the transition but does not establish binding commitments that require countries to abandon fossil fuels. The strategies also highlight, according to these organizations, a contradiction in the Brazilian government’s proposal for an energy transition roadmap while maintaining investments in oil exploration by Petrobras off the Brazilian coast, such as in the Equatorial Margin and the Amazon Basin."

  10. “There were relationships between [the tech industry and fossil fuel industry] in the past, but now it’s just fully out in the open how simpatico their interests are, because more data centres means more fossil fuel demand.”

    I spoke to DeSmog about Cohere’s plan to use AI to extract more fossil fuels.

  13. Well the NZ election results are shaping up to be pretty repugnant. Another 3 years of divisive far right fossil and tobacco fuel driven divisive nonsense dressed up in nauseating pomposity.

    It took them just hours to ensure teens got a bigger share of cancer likelihood last time. What horrors are in store when they misuse this as a mandate?

    How did any Kiwis buy that a government increasing future cancer rates so immediately will serve the interests of any except dodgy, highly toxic donors?

  14. @Dragofix The uk government has something similar enshrined into law and they just ignore it, its a distraction tactic to make people think they have things under control while they continue to enrich themselves with fossil fuel capitalism
