We know that +50% of green claims in the EU are misleading or unfounded. What's the Commission planning to do about it in the #GreenClaims proposal? Some initial thoughts on the proposal and #offsetting🧵1/

🌱 The Green Claims Proposal has recognized the issues with climate-related claims such as "#carbonneutral" and "#netzero". Although it increases transparency, it doesn't do enough to actually tackle the use of misleading claims based on offsetting. 2/
📜In the recitals, the proposal acknowledges that claims relying on offsets outside the company's value chain can be misleading due to inaccuracies, lack of transparency, and double counting and that emission reductions within a trader's operations should be prioritized. 3/

Imagine 1970s energy policy being orders of magnitude better than 2020s energy policy. See any windmills, solar panels, or unnecessary transmission? Me, neither. See Nordstream 1 or 2? Nope.
Do you see France having to mine to the center of the earth? Yea, me, neither.🤷♂️
Do you see any kind of "taxonomy" boondogle? Hydrogen pipelines that can't possibly work according to any material science engineer? Nope. uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/madrid-pa…
The last few months eco-friendly #Bitcoin mining or biomining has been a trending topic. I looked into the opportunity for miners using wasted or stranded #biogas as an input. Making Bitcoin mining a #CarbonNeutral or even #carbon negative operation. 🧵👇
#Biogas is produced through a process called anaerobic digestion. A series of biological processes in which micro-organisms break down biodegradable material in absence of oxygen. Inputs can be:
- Waste crop residues
- Animal manure
- Municipal Solid Waste
- Wastewater sludge
- Waste crop residues
- Animal manure
- Municipal Solid Waste
- Wastewater sludge
The precise composition of biogas depends on the type of feedstock and the technology used to produce it. The main technologies applied are:
- Biodigesters
- Landfill gas recovery systems
- Wastewater treatment plants
- Biodigesters
- Landfill gas recovery systems
- Wastewater treatment plants

Don’t say they never warned us:
IMF warning ban on proof of work for its energy waste.
Major companies’ #NetZero climate pledges largely fail test. 🚨 Our Corporate Climate Responsibility Monitor, launched today w/ @CarbonMrktWatch, finds: Companies have an immense potential for #ClimateAction but pledges lack transparency + integrity. 🧵⤵️ bit.ly/NewClimate_CCR…
2/ Background: Companies are increasingly alert to the #climatcrisis, facing calls to take responsibility for their environmental impact. The companies assessed in the report are major multinationals contributing to roughly 5% of global #GHG emissions.
3/ The #CCRM1 shows: Climate pledges of these 25 corporations on average only commit to emissions reductions of 40%, not ❌ 100% as suggested by their #netzero and #carbonneutral pledges. Collectively, they commit to reducing only <20% of their 2.7 GtCO2e emission footprint.

Yes, it's more than a digital currency.
Blockchain / DLT (distributed ledger technology) provides an immutable, digital ledger that is always updating with transactions happening in real-time. 📖

In 1987, Applied Energy Services (@TheAESCorp) planned on building a ~180 MW coal-fired power plant in Connecticut.
The #coal plant would produce ~14 million tons of CO2 emissions over its lifetime.

Rogers’ "least-cost energy" strategy was revolutionary at the time.

There is no doubt that Legacy Auto businesses might be able to leverage their scale, capital & experience to roll out EVs faster than EV startups..
But does that make them a better investment?

In case of Electric Mobility though, there's one critical factor that's keeping incumbents in the race: POLICY📜
Since EVs are now a necessity to reduce global #carbonfootprint & control the #ClimateCrisis, incumbents have no option but to cannibalize their products.

1/Why?
The global energy demand is growing and so are the associated emissions.
In order to meet goals of Paris agreement, cutting greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) are needed.
Current CO2 concentration in atmosphere: 410 ppm
Target to meet 1.5 deg rise: 350 ppm

2/Carbon Capture
Adopting low carbon and renewable sources of energy along cannot help reach target emissions .
Carbon (CO2) capture at-scale is a bridge as the energy mix shifts.
* CO2 can removed from flue / burnt gases
* Pulling from ambient air, direct air capture
