Nur zu zeigen, dass man (#VW) "könnte, wenn man wollten", reicht halt nicht aus! Dann bleibt es #greenwashing und eine Werbeverkaufsshow. Lasst die #Energieeffizienz-Elemente in ALLE Eure Modelle einfließen, und zwar pronto! Nur bedingt hilfreich wäre es, ein einzelnes (vermutlich noch überteuertes) Modell damit anzubieten. Los geht's, auf geht's, #Effizienzwende, auch bei der #Emobility! Und klar, #Suffizienz, #Verlagerung und #fewerCars wären damit noch nicht abgehandelt.

O que os direitos digitais têm a ver com a crise climática?
América Latina vive nova encruzilhada colonial. Norte busca capturar suas terras raras e controlar, por meio das big techs, seu espaço público. Coesão social e natureza estão em risco, mas surgem alternativas. As decisões políticas, mais uma vez, definirão o destino -
"Bunnings sells timber sourced from NSW Forestry Corporation via a number of local suppliers."
"The state-owned forestry corporation has been convicted of more than a dozen environmental offences and is facing charges on dozens more. A judgment in the land and environment court last year found the agency was likely to reoffend and had poor prospects of rehabilitation."
"But The Wilderness Society (TWS) complaint raises concerns that the agency has retained this certification, despite its convictions for environmental offences."
"Prof David Heilpern, a former magistrate and the dean of law at Southern Cross University who has likened the NSW forestry agency to a “criminal organisation”, said he hoped the TWS complaint would be taken seriously."
“It arises from the unprecedented situation where a government supplier of a product has been convicted of a series of offences relating to illegal activities on public land."

@JackTheCat This project can't work, won't work, and was never intended to work. It was only intended to justify keeping carbon intensive industries going much longer than we could afford. That's why once government actually starts to seem interested, the promoters are bailing out quickly.

#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."

#NPR: The U.S. takes a step toward allowing #mining on the ocean floor, a fragile #ecosystem
by Julia Simon, April 25, 2025
"President #Trump signed an executive order Thursday aimed at making it easier for companies to mine the deep seafloor, saying it would create 'a robust domestic supply for critical minerals.'
"There is currently no commercial-scale deep-sea mining anywhere in the world. But companies have long eyed the ocean floor as a potential source of metals like nickel, cobalt, manganese and copper, which are used in batteries for electric vehicles and other technologies.
"The world has no rulebook for deep-sea mining. One company is pushing forward anyway
"These metals can be found in potato-sized nodules lying on the ocean floor. Many of the nodules are in the middle of the Pacific ocean, beyond the legal territory of individual countries.
"Thursday's order might circumvent ongoing international negotiations to regulate deep-sea mining.
"Those regions have traditionally been overseen by an international organization, the #InternationalSeabedAuthority (#ISA). The ISA has hosted talks for years to try to hammer out a rulebook to govern a potential seabed mining industry. The U.S. did not ratify the treaty that governs the seabed, and is not a voting member of the ISA, though in the past under previous administrations it has respected the ISA process.
"In his executive order, Trump instructed federal agencies to expedite the process for reviewing and issuing permits for mining on the seafloor in both U.S. and international territory. It will use a U.S. law from 1980, the "#DeepSeabed Hard Mineral Resources Act."
"Scientists and environmental groups condemned the order, arguing that opening the deep seabed for mining could disrupt important marine ecosystems, and damage the fishing industry.
" 'This is being planned on some of the least resilient #ecosystems on the planet,' says Douglas McCauley, professor of ocean science at the University of California Santa Barbara. 'It would have #catastrophic biological consequences.'
"Underwater mining can create plumes of sediment that could suffocate marine life, and degrade the #FoodWebs that fish depend on, McCauley says.
"There are also important questions about whether we actually need to be mining the seabed to get enough of these minerals for technologies like batteries, says Micah Ziegler, assistant professor of energy and chemical systems at Georgia Institute of Technology.
"While a couple of years ago researchers were concerned about the limitations of land-based mining for metals like cobalt and nickel, a variety of alternative #battery chemistries have been developed that might reduce the need for those elements, Ziegler says."

I seem to remember BBC promoting this #airlines #greenwashing bullshit only a few weeks ago.
If you burn carbon based fuel you make greenhouse gas. There is no "green" jet fuel.
We need to take a big machete to air travel. Weekend breaks. Flying to business meetings. Cheap holiday on the Costas. It's all too cheap and easy and not taxed nearly enough (if at all).

#DeepSeaMining opponents suffer major setback
by Amélie BOTTOLLIER-DEPOIS
August 3, 2024"Opponents of deep sea mining suffered a serious setback Friday when they failed to take a first step toward an international moratorium on the controversial practice.
"Until now, those in favor of such mining—which would deliver minerals key to the green transition but with a potentially high environmental cost—have managed to prevent the #InternationalSeabedAuthority (#ISA) from even taking up any debate on the subject.
"This time, the debate took place, but a draft calling for a 'dialogue' toward 'the development of a general policy... for the protection and preservation of the marine environment' did not advance after a week of talks in Kingston, Jamaica.
"Numerous delegations, from #China to #SaudiArabia to the #Africa group of member states, said the draft lacked clarity and that the ISA's full assembly of 168 members was not the forum to make any decision on the protection of #marine habitats.
"Instead, those countries said the Council, made up of 36 states, should decide.
"Faced with consistent opposition, #Chile withdrew the draft measure as the assembly's annual session—which makes decisions by consensus—drew to a close.
"'We are somewhat disappointed,' said Chilean representative Salvador Vega Telias. Though he believed he had support from a majority of states, he opted to shelve the discussions until July 2025—a proposal that was not approved either.
"Deep sea mining in international waters involves scraping the ocean floor for #minerals like #nickel, #cobalt and #copper, crucial for #RenewableEnergy energy technology.
"Under the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (#UNCLOS), the ISA is responsible for both protecting the seabed in areas beyond national jurisdictions and for overseeing any exploration or exploitation of resources in those zones.
"Deep sea mining has not yet taken place beyond the experimental and exploratory stage.
"The ISA's Council, which for now only grants exploration contracts, has been drawing up commercial exploitation rules for more than a decade. They are aiming to adopt a mining code in 2025.
"Non-governmental organizations and scientists warn that deep sea mining could damage #habitats and harm species that are little understood, but are potentially important to the #FoodChain.
"In addition, they point to the risk of disrupting the ocean's capacity to absorb carbon emitted by human activities, and the noise that could disturb species such as #whales."

Green finance fighting greenwashing
Making money green: Australia takes its first steps towards a net zero finance strategy"From July 1 2024, large Australian companies and financial institutions will have to disclose information about the impacts of climate on their business, the risks climate change poses to their operations, and how they plan to decarbonise. Successive Australian governments have been slow to grasp this reality, and we are now playing catch-up with many other countries. Australia’s financial system must urgently transform itself to meet the climate challenge."

Me maravilla sobremanera el personal que es capaz de escribir artículos sobre moda sostenible sin citar los criterios de etiquetado ecológico de la Unión Europea para el sector textil. Más ahora que con la Semana de la Moda de Madrid la prensa se llena de propaganda verde de un sector de alto impacto económico, ambiental y social.
Si no sabes qué es la Etiqueta Ecológica Europea o cómo se aplica en el sector textil, te dejo un resumen: https://www.productordesostenibilidad.es/2016/04/28-criterios-que-hacen-tu-ropa-ecologica/ #greenwashing #MBFWMadrid #ecolabel #sostenibilidad #moda

Just Released: "Mining the Sacred: #IndigenousNations Fight #Lithium Gold Rush at #ThackerPass
Watch now:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLO7ClVtlBA"#Cree Journalist Brandi Morin said, 'We are taking back the narrative and this story about North America’s largest lithium mine being constructed while violating sacred Indigenous territories is told from the Native perspective. The 'green' energy revolution isn’t what you think it is!'
IndigiNews Media and The Real News, September 12, 2023
Go watch! @IndigiNewsMedia @TheRealNews @ricochet_en
"Follow Native journalist Brandi Morin, who came from Canada, and covered this powerful story.
"In Nevada’s remote Thacker Pass, a fight for our future is playing out between local #Indigenous tribes and powerful state and #corporate entities hellbent on mining the lithium beneath their land. Vancouver-based Lithium Americas is developing a massive lithium mine at Thacker Pass, but for more than two years several local tribes and #environmental organizations have tried to block or delay the mine in the courts and through direct action.
"The Thacker Pass Project is backed by the Biden administration, and companies like General Motors have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in the project, looking to capitalize on the transition to a 'green energy economy,' for which lithium is essential. While it is a vital component in the manufacturing of electric vehicles and batteries, though, there’s nothing “green” about mining lithium. Ending our addiction to fossil fuels is urgently necessary, but the struggle of the local tribes around Thacker Pass reveals the dark side of a 'green revolution' that prioritizes profit and consumption over everything (and everyone) else."

Die Recyclinglüge
Die #Plastikkrise verschärft sich zunehmend. Bilder von verendeten Tieren und verschmutzten Ozeanen gehen um die Welt. Die #Verpackungsindustrie meint, eine Lösung zu haben: #Recycling. Aber warum wird heute mehr #Neuplastik produziert als je zuvor? Könnte Recycling in Wahrheit nichts weiter als "Greenwashing" sein? Die Dokumentation "Die #Recyclinglüge" nimmt eine #Industrie unter die Lupe, die das Problem lieber verbirgt als löst. Die Autoren Tom Costello und Benedict Wermter spüren Müllmakler auf, die #Plastikmüll illegal im Ausland verklappen, Industriezweige, die sich an der #Verbrennung von Müll bereichern, und #Mafia-Netzwerke, die mit #Abfallschmuggel inzwischen so viel Geld verdienen wie mit #Menschenhandel

Indonesia’s efforts to fight government corruption are being corrupted from within parliament and backed by big business.
At the beginning of the 2000s, Indonesian voters said enough to corruption in politics. The Reform Order (1999) was designed to fight corruption. Then, in 2004, Indonesians elected President Yudhoyono largely on his promises to fight graft and corruption.
People demanded reform. Tools were put in place to attack the corruption endemic in public life that was holding back development.
But the system is failing. Indonesia’s own parliament, backed by big business interests, has succeeded in weakening the very system set up to fight corruption.
The tentacles of the oligarchs have wrapped themselves around the executive arm of government, where several cabinet members have considerable business interests. Indeed, 55 percent of Indonesia’s parliament members have significant business holdings.
“People demanded reform. Tools were put in place to attack the corruption that had become endemic in public life and was holding back development. But the system is failing. Indonesia’s own parliament, backed by big business interests, has succeeded in weakening the very system set up to fight corruption.” ~ Charles Simabura and Haykal, Andalas University, Indonesia.

The marriage between penguasa (the ruler) and pengusaha (business people) is getting stronger in Indonesia’s politics
The Reform Order resulted in the creation of institutions that were expected to be able to free Indonesia from corruption. The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) had powers to investigate corruption. The Constitutional Court acted as the guardian of the constitution. The Judicial Commission was intended to ensure proper behaviour from judges. And the Ombudsman served as the ‘policeman’ of state officials.
But these institutions have failed to meet expectations. The fervour to fight graft that was there 20 years ago has faded. There has even been a revenge attack by corruptors backed by the oligarchs. A 2020 survey by Transparency International Indonesia showed he Indonesian Corruption Perception Index fell from 40 to 37.
In addition, the People’s Representative body was considered the most corrupt institution in Indonesia. The numbers show why. Between 2004 and 2020, 274 members of local and national parliament were arrested. Many MPs consider corruption eradication as a threat.
Sumatran elephants: Surrounded by palm oil and nobody knows how many are left alive! #Boycottpalmoil #Boycott4Wildlife Find out moreThe efforts to undo Indonesia’s anti-corruption framework began with efforts to review the Corruption Eradication Commission Law to the Constitutional Court, where, according to data, more than 20 requests for review have been submitted. At the end of President Yudhoyono’s first term, the parliament succeeded in pushing for a revision of the law. As a result, the Corruption Eradication Commission was weakened and was listed as an institution that the public no longer trusted.
It has since become a toothless tiger. The weakening of the anti-corruption body began with its leadership. There are also questions about the recruitment of commissioners whose commitment to eradicating corruption is problematic.
Other commissioners have repeatedly violated the code of ethics, One chose to resign to avoid being fired. Legislation suspected of being corrupt was successfully passed because it did not receive supervision from the Corruption Eradication Commission.
“The way to stop the erosion of Indonesia’s anti-corruption efforts must come from the top. But president Joko Widodo doesn’t seem to be taking any serious steps. People will remember his legacy as ignoring the Reform Order, unless he takes radical moves before leaving office in 2024.”
There is a pattern of laws being drafted in secret and hastily passed which do not serve the interests of the public. The Anti-corruption body Law, the Mining Law, the Omnibus Law, and the Constitutional Court Law are all examples. The result is demonstrations. Any judicial review is usually rejected by the same people who passed the laws in the first place.
Parliament’s efforts to gain control over anti-corruption institutions have become increasingly evident, especially in the process of recruiting the members of those institutions. MPs replaced one constitutional judge because he was seen to be in conflict with the parliament’s agenda after he helped cancel the promulgation of the Omnibus Law.
The way to stop the erosion of Indonesia’s anti-corruption efforts must come from the top. But president Joko Widodo doesn’t seem to be taking any serious steps. People will remember his legacy as ignoring the Reform Order, unless he takes radical moves before leaving office in 2024.
