„Die Geschichte einer +3°C-Zukunft“ – Eine Studie über Vergangenheit und Zukunft der Treibhausgasemissionen
Als gründliche empirische Studie zu den Möglichkeiten einer Entkoppelung von Wirtschaftswachstum und Treibhausgasemissionen kenne ich bisher nur die Arbeit der Gruppe um Dominik Wiedenhofer und Helmut Haberl (2020, 2020). Spanische Forschende um Juan Infante Amate haben sich jetzt als Historiker ausführlich mit dem Zusammenhang von Emissionen und Wirtschaftswachstum seit den ersten Jahrzehnten der Industrialisierung beschäftigt. Ihre Arbeit zeigt, wie unrealistisch die Annahme ist, dass sich die Begrenzung der globalen Erhitzung und weiteres Wirtschaftswachstum vereinbaren lassen. […] -

"Capitalist ecomodernist visions require a very rapid and large-scale buildout of zero-carbon energy infrastructure. But, under capitalism, investment and production is organized around whatever is most profitable to capital, rather than what is most necessary for achieving social and ecological goals. This creates a problem for the energy transition, because while renewables are increasingly cheap, fossil fuels are three times more profitable, in large part because they are more conducive to monopoly power (Christophers 2025). So, capital continues to flow to fossil fuels and we get inadequate investments in clean energy. In recent months, several major financial firms have abandoned their low-carbon investments because they are not profitable enough. In other words, ecomodernism’s commitment to capitalism ultimately works against its ecological objectives. This may help explain why ecomodernists tend to promote nuclear power, because an energy grid dominated by capital-intensive forms of energy production with high barriers to entry is more likely to be profitable.
The green transition ultimately cannot be left in the hands of capital. It will require substantial public finance, public works, industrial policy and planning in order to build out necessary renewable energy capacity, as well as to undertake other low-profit or zero-profit activities such as expanding public transit, insulating buildings, and regenerating ecosystems. Furthermore, increasing these activities cannot be done while national productive capacities are already maxed out by capitalist production. It will necessarily require scaling down less-necessary production, to liberate labour, engineers, resources etc to be remobilized for this purpose. Here too, this is not something that can be achieved within capitalism. Capital will not voluntarily scale down profitable forms of production."

Green growth theory posits that we can decouple growth of the real economy - the one that provides goods and services that can lift our standard of living - from growth of energy use, pollution etc. I don't if that's true. But as I pointed out yesterday, financialisation has been pretty good at...
> Decoupling on-paper economic growth from anything that actually lift's our standard or living
So who knows?

An important thread on TwiX by @Peters_Glen
He analyses the allegedly accomplished disconnect of GDP vs CO2 . #IEA had published a SUCCESS story. Glen debunks it: The disconnect is NOT happening.
Look at all the charts Glen created
https://nitter.cz/Peters_Glen/status/1753333579801636953#m
The disconnect is not happening. And where it does a tiny bit, eg Denmark, it is nowhere near enough the rate it would need to be if one wants to desperately cling to the fairy tale of #GreenGrowth & #capitalism . GreenGrowth & #GDP growth – while #CO2 shrinks as fast as it has to – works only in theory. And only if it is done globally, without "exporting" CO2-intensive activities to regions with bad emission laws.
We now need to hit the breaks really hard. Controlled, managed #Degrowth = #PlannedEconomy from now for the next 20 years or so, followed by a #PostGrowth system.
It was simply left too long, too much CO2 accumulated due to decadent #economists spouting fairytales and #BigOil telling lies.

Ecomodernists, the true believers in human ingenuity and technology. They "write with the conviction that knowledge and technology, applied with wisdom, might allow for a good, or even great, Anthropocene." Is that a new type of denialism, painted green?

Peter #Unfried und Boris #Palmer finden, Proteste seien nicht mehr nötig, alle wüssten Bescheid und wir sollten nur mal eben ein paar Firmen gründen und #Energiewende machen. Dann könne alles so weitergehen und wir könnten glücklich bis ans Ende unsere Tage in E-Autos rumbrausen.
Seht Ihr das auch so? Oder kommt Ihr am 3.3. zum großen #Klimastreik von #FridaysForFuture?
Hier Kommentar und Interview zerpflückt. Habt Spaß! Oder auch Wut!

No, the Shift to Renewables Will Not Be the End of Toil
Energy derived from sources like the sun, air, and water, on the other hand, is imbued with immense liberatory potential. In principle every house, farm, and factory could free itself from the grid by generating its own power. No longer would power lines and gigantic, leak prone tankers be needed for the transportation of energy; no longer would workers have to toil in underground mines or remote deserts or rough seas; there would be no need for the long supply chains required by fossil fuels. (Amitav Ghosh, The Nutmeg’s Curse, p. 102, emphasis mine)
Context makes it clear Ghosh is thinking of coal mining, oil fields, and offshore platforms when he dreams of a world where workers no longer toil. But in his reverie, Ghosh neglects an important and undeniable feature of renewable energy: it is mining intensive.
The IEA sees demand for critical minerals surging from 2020-2050 even as the demand for and value of coal drops. In green growth scenarios, workers will likely have to keep toiling in mines as they now do in Chile’s Atacama desert, the cobalt mines of the Democratic Republic of Congo, or the copper and nickel mines of South Asia, South America, or Siberia. The list of potential sacrifice zones will grow and could someday extend from American public lands to offshore oil platforms converted to deep-sea mining.
This observation is not an argument against the transition from fossil fuels. It’s just to say that right now there are no signs the shift to renewables will undo the resource curse. Extraction for global markets continues to exact a local toll: serious human rights violations, unremediated (or irremediable) environmental destruction, conflicts over water (which Ghosh himself mentions briefly in a list of “conflicts that global warming will create or exacerbate,” p. 127), and social division. And for the foreseeable future, mineral supply chains will be nearly as long as those required by fossil fuels, strung across the globe and fraught with geopolitical tension.
A decisive shift from fossil fuels could see the end of the petro-dollar and the toppling of “global hierarchies of power,” as Ghosh imagines: “The liberatory potential of renewable energy has a very important international dimension as well: if adopted at scale it could transform, indeed revolutionize, the current global order” (p. 103). It could also precipitate another set of crises – environmental, humanitarian, and military — and it’s worth considering that eventuality.
Postscript, 20 January 2022: For more on the geopolitical risks of the energy transition, see Jason Bordoff and Meghan L. O’Sullivan, “Green Upheaval The New Geopolitics of Energy,” Foreign Affairs, January/February 2022.
