#removals — Public Fediverse posts

Large polluting industries (#biomass, #aviation, #fossils, #Microsoft etc) are lobbying the most to weaken UN rules for permanent carbon removals. These are activities supposed to remove CO2 from the atmosphere, but it is expensive to do it for real so they are lobbying to be able to pretend doing it rather than actually doing it.

14.36 min mark Lies are SERIOUS! A Judge and 2 lawyers explain.

Dave discusses the unfair goal post shift, changing #immigration rules

As this is Mastodon, let me pre-emptively point out that, yes, these scientists are aware that >90% of teaching Climate Neutrality is about emissions reductions, not removals.

The IPCC is also aware of this, as am I at the European Commission.

All these people already wrote reports on that, this one is about land sinks and technological removals.

EU Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change comes out with new report on carbon removals.

They recommend, i.a.

“Separate targets, stronger innovation support and environmental safeguards…

Integrating permanent removals into the EU carbon market over time for a cost-effective deployment…

Reversing the EU’s land sink decline”

UK Tooters

Is there anyone here who has used self-storage units for storing furniture during a protracted house / flat move?

Any advice on how to choose and pitfalls to look out for would be appreciated.

Boosts very much welcomed.

Here is what will happen on day one of Trump’s presidency, according to Project 2025

With Republicans now holding bare majorities in both chambers of Congress, the gloves come off.

As Trump utters the last phrase of the oath of office
– “so help me God”
– the first phase of what #Project2025’s authors call
“the playbook” begins.

❌First come the firings.
Thousands of federal, non-partisan civil servants
–environmental and food safety regulators;
authorities in disaster relief coordination;
attorneys overseeing anti-discrimination policies in housing, education and employment;
medical and scientific researchers
– receive #immediate #layoff notices.
💥Many will not be replaced, as entire federal programs and agencies are shuttered.

The new personnel that do arrive come from conservative thinktanks, or are 💥rightwing activists who applied through the Project 2025 application database.
🔥Political #cronyism is now the official hiring policy of the US federal government.

❌Next come the #roundups.
As drafted by the Maga nativist-in-chief #Stephen #Miller,
a broad range of law enforcement, from the national guard to state and local police are deputized
for a new #deportation #army.

Sweeps of neighborhoods and businesses take aim at blue states and cities,
but general terror is their intended goal.
#Detention #centers are established on military bases and federal facilities with quick access to airfields to execute #mass #removals.
Nearly a million lawfully present immigrants are stripped of their legal protections, subjecting them to immediate deportation.
🔸An end to Daca and a return of the Muslim ban follow.
In the following months other parts of the agenda unfold.

🆘Cuts in corporate taxes so generous they would make the robber barons blush.

An end to federal funding for public television and radio that forces many local stations to shutter.

The termination of Head Start programs leaves hundreds of thousands of parents and guardians without preschool or childcare.

The elimination of the Department of Education and programs like Title I halt funding and many protections for students with disabilities, English learners and students from low-income households.

Pornography is criminalized.

Ditto for abortion rights, emergency contraception and many reproductive health programs.

Adiós also to most public sector unions, labor organizing rights and anti-poverty programs.

⭐️It can be difficult at times to distinguish the hyperbole of Trump and the Maga movement from actual governing plans.
“Build the wall” was always more of a campaign performance and fundraising stunt than a policy blueprint.

But after attending several rightwing conferences and rallies for research in the last year, I have little reason to doubt their intentions this time around.

🔥I’ve heard Miller at CPAC describethe deportation plans in chilling detail.

I heard speaker after speaker at a Turning Point USA conference promise #violence and #retribution against political opponents,
the dismantling of nearly all public goods,
and plans to bring a shrill #Christian #nationalism to the center of governance and civic life.

❌I’ve listened to unapologetic defenses of #eugenics and scientific #racism on rightwing media channels with millions of followers.

And perhaps most frighteningly, I’ve observed growing numbers of
young people,
people of color and others outside of the traditional conservative base
join the #Maga faithful and embrace the #cynicism and #demonization that is the heartbeat of the contemporary right.

Conservatives often celebrate the unity of their governing philosophy, rooted in small government, entrepreneurship, faith and family.

But there is nothing coherent or rational about these policies.
#Plunder is the prevailing principle.

And these ideas are 👉not limited to the #Heritage #Foundation or Trump alone.
🩸They have been embraced across a network of rightwing formations, some with agendas even more extreme than Project 2025.‼️

#forestry #removals

Important distinction: if human activity were to cease, #energy #emissions would fall to zero, but #land emissions (#agriculture, #forestry, other #LandUse) would become net-negative as nature regenerates.

Our global #climate challenge: maintain human activity (increasing #prosperity and #equity) while minimizing #GHG emissions and maximizing #carbon #removals.

#COP27 🧵

#COP27 is already backtracking on any hope of real climate progress, although #lossanddamage discussions are huge.

A key part of the early negotiations are #removals and #offsets - can countries get credits for geoengineering (HOLY SHIT THAT WOULD BE BAD) or planting forests (good)

In short, a lot of various solutions that aren't actually decreasing carbon emissions.
