E-Fuels mehr Gewissensberuhigung als Lösung?
Synthetische Treibstoffe würden es ermöglichen, die bestehende Infrastruktur beizubehalten, sie lösen das Energieproblem aber nicht. Bei Fahrzeugen gilt inzwischen direkter Elektroantrieb als deutlich effizienter und kostengünstiger. Da Batterien zu schwer sind, könnten E-Fuels für Langstreckenflüge eine Rolle spielen. Es ist aber wenig realistisch, das derzeitige Flugvolumen damit beizubehalten.

Wie gelingt es mächtigen Akteuren, den #Klimaschutz systematisch zu verzögern?

Mit rhetorischen Tricks, falschen Hoffnungen und strategischem Pessimismus werden #Klimaschutzmaßnahmen blockiert und Verantwortung verschoben. Die bekannten Argumente sind vielfältig, aber wiederkehrend und dadurch erkennbar.

#Greenwashing isn’t excluded from poorly designed #CarboOffset schemes in Australia and a lot more needs to be done to make them work as they are intended to. I know that. But some people are just dead set against leaving a planet that can be habitable to future generations, to satify their short term self-interests and political agenda.

Opposition to a projct which involves native reforestation alongside reduced grazing land (and in this case other ‘agricultural’ production) on whatever grounds sure seems like cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Government handouts to make #ClimateAction happen isn’t a zero sum game. In our current #NeoLIberal economic climate, that is what govt have to do to lower emmissions and save ecosystems for the greater good. It would be better if govt declared whole swathes of Country off limit to exploitation forever, but some nutters would bring up #cultural (whose culture?) and #historical (whose history?) loss as well as loss of productive agricultural land (whatever that means if clearfelling, pesticides, herbicides and fertilizer are all required to make it so). I won’t even talk about the economic and ecological folly of growing meat on the hoof at industrial scales.

@blindcoder Das versuchen wir ja mit #Millions4earth.

https://millions4.earth/m/ATZM4X727Y?lang=de

Es gibt dort einerseits Empfehlungen, was man im persönlichen Bereich tun kann, aber viel wichtiger ist der politische Bereich. Wir werden beides laufend ergänzen.

Heute in der Abschlussrunde haben zwei Frauen gesprochen, die darauf hingewiesen haben, dass kommunale Prozesse extrem wichtig sind, denn da werden Dinge getan. Egal, wer Kanzler ist, da unten laufen Verfahren und Bürger*innen können sich beteiligen und wirken!

Wenn Ihr bei Millions4earth mitmacht, bekommt Ihr zusätzlich zum Erfolg noch Punkte. =:-)

Übrigens: Ein erstes Ergebnis ist, dass nicht alle, die unterzeichnen, #Ökostrom haben. Das ist nun wirklich einfach. Man braucht dazu nur seine letzte Stromrechnung und maximal eine halbe Stunde Zeit. Hinterher spart man viel Geld und trägt zum #Klimaschutz bei.

Pro-Tipp wenn man Genossenschaftmitglied wird, wirtschaftet man praktisch in die eigene Tasche und man bekommt noch einen Rabatt. Ich habe bei sehr geringer Stromrechnung noch 140€ im Jahr weniger Stromkosten bei einem Wechsel von einem Ökostromanbieter zu einem anderen, genossenschaftlich organsiertem.

Bei der Liste von @robin_wood gibt es auch nicht viel Auswahl. Diese Liste sollte man verwenden, weil andere Anbieter nur #greenwashing betreiben.

Greenwashing, now available in your local grocery store..

"More than 27,000 packaged foods sold at Coles, Woolworths, Aldi, IGA and Harris Farm supermarkets in Sydney were assessed by researchers from the George Institute for Global Health.

Nearly four in 10 products carried some sort of sustainability claim, the study in Public Health Nutrition found.

Associate Prof Alexandra Jones, the institute’s program lead for food governance, said the majority of claims were self-declared by the manufacturer, without independent verification.

“Consumers are increasingly trying to make food choices that are good for the planet, and manufacturers know it. What we’re finding is that the labels designed to guide those choices are largely unregulated and that creates real risks of greenwashing.”

Out of 69 different environmental claims identified by the researchers, “natural” and “vegan” appeared most often. Some, like “sustainable” or “natural”, were so broad as to be almost meaningless, she said.

“There’s no legal meaning of ‘natural’, but we know that people associate it with being better for you, or being better for the environment,” she said. “But many things are natural that are not good in a health context. Sugar is natural – that doesn’t mean it’s good for you.”"

“As sustainability loses its allure, brands are reframing their messaging around use of natural fibres or avoidance of chemicals to appeal to customers.”

The Forbidden Film #BigOil Tried to Erase

Rollie Williams von #ClimateTown hat einen verschollen geglaubten 17-minütigen #Propagandafilm aus den 1990ern aufgetrieben, der von der US-Öllobby für Schulen produziert wurde, und zerlegt ihn genüsslich spöttelnd.

Der Film stellt fossile Brennstoffe als unverzichtbar und umweltfreundlich dar und leugnet die eigene Verantwortung doppelt: Auf der einen Seite preist er Umweltfortschritte als eigene Leistung an, die in Wirklichkeit durch staatliche Regulierung erzwungen wurden und die die fossile Lobby vorher vergeblich zu verhindern versucht hatte. Auf der anderen Seite schiebt er die Verantwortung für Veränderung auf das individuelle Verhalten.

Fazit: Die dunkle Seite des Klimaschutzes: Daniel Harrichs Film "#Verschollen"

"Wir decken … den mutmaßlich größten Klimabetrug der Gegenwart auf, …der noch viel weiter führt als nur die Frage nach CO₂-Zertifikatehandel.
Wir decken auf, dass genau diese Aufforstung, über die dieser Film berichtet: … Bäume, die gepflanzt werden, um angeblich CO₂ zu speichern, genutzt werden dafür, sie zu verbrennen und daraus sogenannten grünen Stahl herzustellen, der beispielsweise in #Hamburg in der #U5 verbaut wird. Mit grünem Siegel und auch Steuergeldern."

ESP: EL RECICLAJE ES UNA MENTIRA

" Durante años, muchos de nosotros hemos separado obedientemente nuestros residuos plásticos, creyendo que nuestros pequeños esfuerzos contribuían a un mundo más limpio. Pero resulta que la realidad es mucho menos esperanzadora. Un informe reciente del Center for Climate Integrity, titulado "The Plastic Recycling Myth", revela que menos del 9% del plástico se recicla realmente. El resto acaba en vertederos, en nuestros océanos e incluso en nuestros cuerpos en forma de microplásticos."

#Kerala fishermen up in arms against #DeepSeaMining proposal off #Kollam coast

March 22, 2025

"The fishermen in Kerala have already launched several protests against the proposed plan to open up the sea to private mining companies as part of the Union Government’s ‘Blue Economy’ initiative.

"All the fishermen’s associations stand united in their protests against this proposal, alleging that it would bring an end to the fisheries sector in the country, not only in the #ArabianSea but also in the #BayOfBengal.

“ 'The mining, according to the scientific report we have, can disturb the seabed and completely destroy fish spawning habitats. It can also release poisonous gases trapped on the #DeepSeaFloor, causing severe #environmental issues,' Kerala Minister for Fisheries, Saji Cherian, told PTI.

"He said that deep-sea mining requires huge investments and heavy machinery, meaning only #multinational #corporations will be involved, making these areas completely inaccessible to poor fishermen.

"The Kerala government, which is strongly opposing this project, passed a resolution in the Assembly urging the Centre to withdraw it.

"The Minister said the proposed site, off the Kollam shore in Kerala in the Arabian Sea, is very rich in marine resources and serves as a lifeline for fishermen from Kerala and other states.

“ 'We have a highly diverse and extensive fish population in this area. The mining will completely wipe out this habitat, severely affecting the livelihood of fishermen in our region,' Saji Cherian said."

#FirstNations chiefs shouldn’t be duped by the ‘#nuclear-is-green' deception

by William Eric Altvater, February 6, 2025

"Some First Nation Chiefs are victims of shenanigans, not unlike the swindle behind the purchase of Manhattan. The federal government needs the support of #Indigenous peoples to expand nuclear power generation capacity in #Canada.

"For millennia, the cornerstones of the Indigenous people that inhabit Turtle Island, now known as North America, held all that is essential to life, in reverence. Every decision considered the next 7 generations. These cornerstones are crumbling.

"Newcomers, armed with the #Colonizing tool, 'The #DoctrineOfDiscovery' and their mentality of superiority, invaded the land of those they called 'Savages,' almost totally exterminating #Skicinuwok, People of The Earth.

"Determined to bestow Christianity and civility to this wild untamed population, old growth forests were cut, rivers and streams were dammed to power sawmills, roads and railroads were built, bridges erected. All to create an infrastructure for #capitalism, a system to make a #profit, that morphed into #greed, a word of foreign root. This unbridled desire for progress has ruined what was once called Paradise.

"Now most water is not fit to drink, clean air is scarce, #deforestation is rampant, #biodiversity loss out of control, plants genetically modified, food manufactured with unpronounceable chemicals, caged fish starved of oxygen while being fed chicken feathers and pig parts, cancer cases in the millions, the list goes on.

"As the population increased over this continent the available sources for power generation have not been able to satisfy the insatiable desires of the 'bigger, better, faster, more is never enough' mentality. Some have finally acknowledged the fact that #FossilFuels are not the golden egg they were once deemed to be.

"So-called '#GreenEnergy' is required to slow the blind drive to extinction of man; man, who is considered by some to be the most intelligent creature to ever roam Earth. Unfortunately, the lure of riches and the corruption of self-serving purposes have led man to stray from practices that nurture everything required to sustain life on this tiny blue marble floating through the universe.

"#NuclearPower is now being touted as being 'Green.' It is not. Big money corporations are lobbying legislators to convince them and the public that it is. They are also lobbying to convince the public that they should foot the bill in the form of taxes and rate hikes, for a process that pollutes from the day it starts. Water is life. As soon as #uranium is mined from the earth it begins to contaminate the water in surrounding aquifers.

"When the uranium is processed sufficiently, it is used as fuel for reactors where it generates heat while delivering electricity, not just for essential needs, but also for many things once considered luxuries. This fission generated heat is then dumped into nearby waters where it kills thousands, if not millions of small beings that form the basis of life itself.

"After this radioactive fuel is depleted, it is stored in various containers where it will stay radioactive for eons. Indigenous #Grandmothers have labelled it 'Forever Dangerous.'

"The power generated during the fission process benefits only those who exist today as the process occurs, not those born tomorrow or next week or next month. All the #RadioactiveWaste and the inherent danger it creates is left to future generations, kicking the can down the road.

"What better place to dump this waste than in an area with a population that has witnessed Newcomers enrich themselves for hundreds of years? Yes, what better place than a population that has been targeted for assimilation, suffered theft of lands, witnessed the taking of naturally bestowed rights? A population that has been subjected to racial Indian Act legislation essentially stripping away all that sustained this population for thousands of years.

"Yes, let us give the Indians some more shiny beads and trinkets so that they willingly agree to care for our radioactive garbage. How do we do this? Let’s talk to the Chief and Council. Let’s wine and dine them. Let’s give them some money, take them to dinner, buy some drinks and make them feel all festive and most of all make them think we are looking out for their best interests. Some Chiefs have taken the bait.

"Egregious as it may be, this is exactly what is happening in some Indigenous communities contrary to the will of the majority. Elected Chiefs are continuing the deception as they are blinded and professing the 'Nuclear is Green' mantra. They have lost connection with the Spirit of Ancestors and traditional values. They need to have a serious introspection and realize that looking forward, we need only look back at what has sustained us to this point in time. We need not do any more than that."

#FirstNations chiefs shouldn’t be duped by the ‘#nuclear-is-green' deception

by William Eric Altvater, February 6, 2025

"Some First Nation Chiefs are victims of shenanigans, not unlike the swindle behind the purchase of Manhattan. The federal government needs the support of #Indigenous peoples to expand nuclear power generation capacity in #Canada.

"For millennia, the cornerstones of the Indigenous people that inhabit Turtle Island, now known as North America, held all that is essential to life, in reverence. Every decision considered the next 7 generations. These cornerstones are crumbling.

"Newcomers, armed with the #Colonizing tool, 'The #DoctrineOfDiscovery' and their mentality of superiority, invaded the land of those they called 'Savages,' almost totally exterminating #Skicinuwok, People of The Earth.

"Determined to bestow Christianity and civility to this wild untamed population, old growth forests were cut, rivers and streams were dammed to power sawmills, roads and railroads were built, bridges erected. All to create an infrastructure for #capitalism, a system to make a #profit, that morphed into #greed, a word of foreign root. This unbridled desire for progress has ruined what was once called Paradise.

"Now most water is not fit to drink, clean air is scarce, #deforestation is rampant, #biodiversity loss out of control, plants genetically modified, food manufactured with unpronounceable chemicals, caged fish starved of oxygen while being fed chicken feathers and pig parts, cancer cases in the millions, the list goes on.

"As the population increased over this continent the available sources for power generation have not been able to satisfy the insatiable desires of the 'bigger, better, faster, more is never enough' mentality. Some have finally acknowledged the fact that #FossilFuels are not the golden egg they were once deemed to be.

"So-called '#GreenEnergy' is required to slow the blind drive to extinction of man; man, who is considered by some to be the most intelligent creature to ever roam Earth. Unfortunately, the lure of riches and the corruption of self-serving purposes have led man to stray from practices that nurture everything required to sustain life on this tiny blue marble floating through the universe.

"#NuclearPower is now being touted as being 'Green.' It is not. Big money corporations are lobbying legislators to convince them and the public that it is.

#KleeBenally's on his cover of the #TomWaits song "Earth Died Screaming."

"#Climatechange is a consequence of the war against #MotherEarth.
The #greenwashing of #capitalism and #colonialism perpetuates the nightmare of #ecocide and #genocide of #IndigenousPeoples.

"#LithiumMining is intensifying to meet demand of 'green' #EV cars. This means further targeting and destruction of #Indigenous #SacredLands and water. Support #Hualapai & #Shoshone (and beyond!) resistance to lithium mining.

From mining, transport, milling, and waste, 'clean/green' #Nuclear energy is a deadly lie. There are more than 10,000 abandoned uranium throughout the so-called US that have been left to permanently contaminate our communities with deadly #radioactive pollution. There is also no permanent plan to deal with the highly radioactive waste from nuclear power generation. #YuccaMountain, a sacred site for #WesternShoshone, is still being considered for a national nuclear waste repository.

"For wind turbines, solar panels, and electric vehicles, #ResolutionCopper proclaims that they desperately need to mine the copper beneath #OakFlat, a sacred site for #SanCarlosApache.

"We can't ignore the brutal impacts associated with the sourcing of necessary metals and minerals needed to
'sustain' unsustainable ways of life.

"#GreenCapitalists and #colonizers dream, while the Earth dies screaming."
