@quixoticgeek €40 biljon a year allows for quite some lobby apparatus in #TheHague and Brussels. Plus rich rewards for public servants to join the corrupt #fossilindustry after their stint in public office. And don't underestimate the determination in defending the wealth biljonairs enjoy, it is their God given right to rule

Climate denial and the classroom: a review

#FossilIndustry at its best:
Pipeline operators and gas producers are taken to court for conspiring in market price manipulations every year https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4896585-texas-gas-manipulation-lawsuit-uri/
The modus operandi: deprive utilities of gas before winter and when a cold spell or hurricane is forecast. Then, when the forecasted disaster hits, like the cold spell in 2021 during which hundreds died in #Texas, leave the supplier contract with the utilities and up the gas price on the spot market.
If the decision makers had operated like this in Germany, we could sentence them to life in prison for mass murder.If state attorneys weren't all fossil heads, that is.
(German State Attorneys also would have to open murder court cases against the diesel fraudsters. But they don't, because they're fossil heads and deny to see that the resulting elevated NOx lead to deaths, a fact known but shrugged off in favour of profits by the fraudsters/murderers when they manipulated the motor software – to circumvent laws in place precisely to save people from being exposed to lung-killing NOx and ozone.) -
This satellite image is paradigmatic. It shows smoke from huge forest fires over Canada. Smoke from burning swamps can also be seen in the south. In the south of North America there is a heat wave and in the center a hurricane is destroying Bermuda.
And in the north: Greenland is melting.>Thank you #FossilIndustry.

Alles richtig. Aber das kannst Du nicht versichern. Die Rückversicherungen können nicht mal mehr Ransomware
Alternativ die Gewinne des #fossilindustry Komplex abschöpfen und richtig Druck machen.

Die NGO "Transport & Environment", prognostiziert aktuell einen E-Fuels-Preis von 2,80 Euro pro Liter im Jahr 2030. Die "eFuel Alliance", bestehend aus Fossillobby wie Automobilzulieferer, Kraftstoffindustrie und Autoverbänden, spricht von einem Literpreis von 1,45 bis 2,24 Euro allerdings erst 2050
- und sie rechnen mit einer kompletten Steuerbefreiung für Efuels!

Renowned climate scientist Michael E. Mann on what ‘doomers’ get wrong
In his new book, ‘Our Fragile Moment,’ he explains why every fraction of a degree of climate warming is worth preventing.

CLIMATE REPORTING QUANDRY
How to expand on record-setting temperatures without biting the fossil fuel hand that feeds…The Media Has No Idea How to Cover Extreme Heat
https://newrepublic.com/post/174301/media-no-idea-cover-extreme-heat
News outlets are reporting on record-setting temperatures—but telling us little else about this catastrophic inferno we’re living (and dying) through.

We are happy to read that the Board acknowledges that there are businesses that delay or counteract the transition and that they express a willingness to move beyond a project-based evaluation to a partner-based evaluation for collaborations.

We as members of Scientists4Future Wageningen are disappointed with the decision taken after already half a year of dialogues, as it further delays cutting ties with the fossil fuel industry. Ample evidence is available on the lack of commitment from this industry toward meeting the Paris Climate Agreement, as well as their role played in science disinformation, and we therefore advocate for a decision to ultimately cut ties.

Yesterday the executive board of Wageningen University has announced the university will for the moment not break the ties with the fossil fuel industry but will install an advisory group to work on additional criteria for future collaborations.

"A powerful rogue industry has imperiled our planet. Their unrivaled influence in the financial and political arenas means they will be able to protect their pernicious business model for many years to come. […]
The [IPCC] has concluded that acting on climate is not being restricted by a lack of scientific knowledge or technological options, but by politics and fossil fuel interests."

Left: toothbrush of The Humble Co., Material: 100% plant based, exchangable head
Use: 2 months continously twice per day (about 120 uses total till product end life of the exchangable part)Right: Random children's toothbrush
Material: 100% virgin plastic
Use: 1 month, every other day approx., once a day (about 15 uses total until end life)If the #EU can ban plastic straws, it also can ban sh💩t like these plastic toothbrushes. When will there finally be strict regulation on #plannedobsolesence?

"IEA chief slams climate 'contradictions' from oil companies …
The pathway for 1.5 C shows 'no new oil and gas fields approved for development' and 'no new coal mines or mines extensions.' …
… developing new oil and gas fields is 'incompatible' with the 1.5 C target."

@MurmeltHier Wir waren vor Jahrzehnten schon beim 3l Auto. Dann bekam die Ölindustrie kalte Füße. Dann kamen leistungsfähige Batterien. Und die Ölindustrie bekam wieder kalte Füße.
Unsere #Demokatie ist nicht stark genug, um gegen milliardenschwere #Konzerne anzukommen.

#SHELL
From @FollowTheMoney :
Shell knew about climate change even earlier than thought (and was nevertheless fully committed to coal)Not since 1986 (as known until now), but already in the early 1970s, Shell knew that the combustion of fossil fuels plays a role in #ClimateChange.
Nevertheless, the oil company was setting up a new #FossilIndustry at that time: #Coal. Newly unearthed documents show ....Copy n Read:

Research cooperations with the fossil industry on renewable energy is like if you'd do research cooperations for better leg protheses with the land-mine industry.
Dear universities and public research institutions: these industries shouldn't be there in the first place. Don't legitimize them with your reputation. They're not part of the solution. They were, are, and will be the problem. #BreakTheTies

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:

Wouldn't it be interesting if #Anonymous (or actual hackers) could have a look into the #DonorsTrust or the #Heartland Institute and leak some of their money sources (and sinks in case of the Donors Trust)?
