Big oil pushed to kill bill that would have made them pay for wildfire disasters
Legislation has new life in wake of Los Angeles catastrophe but US fossil-fuel industry is already mobilizing against it
In the year preceding the devastating Los Angeles county wildfires, big oil fiercely lobbied to kill a “#polluter #pay” bill that moved through the California senate
-- and would have forced major fossil fuel companies to help cover the costs of climate disasters.Fossil-fuel industry lobbying in California spiked to record levels during the 2023-24 legislative session,
-- and the polluter pay bill was among the most targeted pieces of legislation,
a Guardian review of state lobby filings found. -

Should the #polluter always pay?
The answer isn’t as obvious as you might think. It depends on whether your priority is #climate justice or cutting #carbon.

Trump’s win is a tragic loss for #climate progress
His return to the White House puts the world’s second-largest climate #polluter on an #emissions trajectory we can’t afford.
It comes at a moment when the world can’t afford to waste time, with nations far off track from any emissions trajectories that would keep our ecosystems stable and our communities safe. Under the policies in place today, the planet is already set to warm by more than 3 °C over preindustrial levels

Meet the Pipeline Protester Facing 5 Years for Peaceful Action
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FOZWJV6bJY&ab_channel=DemocracyNow%21
We speak with climate activist and water protector Mylene Vialard, whose trial for peacefully protesting the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline began this week in Minnesota. Vialard faces up to five years in prison for her 2021 protest, when she attached herself to a 25-foot bamboo tower erected to block a pumping station in Aitkin County. Vialard, who lives in Colorado, had come to Minnesota to take part in a wave of Indigenous-led acts of civil disobedience to stop the pipeline. Between December 2020 and September 2021, police in Minnesota made more than 1,000 arrests. Mylene Vialard is just the second water protector facing felony charges to go to trial. “We’re destroying our planet. We’re destroying our way of life,” says Vialard. We also speak with Indigenous lawyer and activist Tara Houska, who was also arrested in 2021 for participating in a nonviolent action against Line 3. She says police violence against environmental and Indigenous activists has gotten “exponentially worse” since the 2016 Dakota Access protests at Standing Rock. “The crackdown on environmental protests is nationwide,” says Houska.

An open-pit mine planned upstream of #Boise
Canadian mining company to make another run at exploration for the potential and controversial CuMo Project open-pit mine
by John Robison, March 8, 2023
"In the highlands between Charlotte Gulch and Grimes Creek, Canadian-based mining company CuMoCo is hoping to gain approval from the Forest Service to construct up to 13.3 miles of new roads and drill 259 holes up to 3,000 feet deep for a mining exploration project. This project, called the CuMo Mine Exploration Project, is hoping to find sufficient copper (Cu) and molybdenum (Mo) to justify one of the largest open-pit mines in the world – all within the precious #BoiseRiver watershed.
"In 2011, Canadian mining company Mosquito Gold proposed an extensive drilling plan in the mountainous area in the headwaters of #GrimesCreek. Local and downstream communities were alarmed as mining is the number one #polluter in the United States and even mining exploration can have adverse impacts. The Boise River is a precious resource – it provides more than 25% of Boise’s #drinking water supply and helps irrigate over 300,000 acres of cropland."

#TaylorSwift is the greatest #environmental #polluter among celebrities in 2023 -
"Taylor Swift was already considered the biggest polluter among celebrities last year (2022). This year she has not improved - quite the opposite.
...
Swift's more than twelve flights in the past three months have caused 138 tons of #CO2 emissions. To compensate for this environmental damage, Taylor Swift would have to plant 2,282 trees and let them grow for 10 years. The flights consumed 12,622 gallons (the equivalent of 47,779 liters) of kerosene, which corresponds to a value of 70,779 US dollars - 64,230 euros."I've tried, but I've never been able to warm up to Swift or her music. Now I know why.
...
"When it comes to love, no distance is too far for Taylor Swift - and no tonne of #CO2 #emissions too much. In 2022, the US singer was denounced for having the most environmentally damaging behavior among celebrities. In contrast to her colleagues, she had traveled the most miles in a private jet and thus left the largest carbon footprint. There has been no improvement this year. The reason for this is said to be her relationship.For a few months now, Taylor Swift has been seen alongside football star Travis Kelce. The 34-year-old has been shuttling back and forth between New York and Kansas City for him in recent months. She has also boarded a plane between her tour stops in #SouthAmerica to travel to Kansas City. Several media outlets have reported this, referring to the Instagram channel "Taylor Swift's Jets", which tracks the private jet's routes."

It's less than a joke.
The "industrialized countries" owe the "developing countries (and themselves) USD 170,000 billion (170 trillion) in #ClimateReparations. This is why the world's bigges #polluter, the #USA, has been fighting tooth and nail to negate any financial responsibility for #ClimateChange if the #PolluterPaysPrinciple were implemented: -
"Europe's biggest #polluter is ditching targets in its #climate law to cut #emissions in individual sectors — after mixed progress toward reaching those goals."
