Today and tomorrow, @G7 #Energy ministers meet in #Japan – a country, often considered a “laggard” on #energytransition. What is 🇯🇵’s energy system like and why is it so reluctant to step up #decarbonisation of its economy? A 🧵 1/19

The “usual” arguments by the 🇯🇵 government when confronted with lack of both action and ambition on #energytransition:
1. #Japan is resource-poor
2. Japan’s geography limits #renewables build-out
3. Technologies & Innovation will solve the transition
How true are they? 2/19

Japan is indeed poor in some resources, most notably #fossilfuels. Fossil fuel based, its energy system is 88% dependent on #oil, #LNG and #coal imports. It has one of the least self-sufficient energy systems, dependent on #oil & gas from #MiddleEast & #coal from #Australia. 3/19 
I’m really proud to share a just-published article in @TheLancetPH about our #ChequeDayStudy. It is the culmination of years of work and input from community. I hope it informs policy to improve the lives of PWUD in BC & beyond 1/13 thelancet.com/journals/lanpu…
Monthly synchronized income assistance payments have long been linked in past research to considerable and costly increases in drug use and drug-related harm, including overdose, hospital admission, treatment interruption, and emergency service calls. 2/13
This research suggests an individual signal for increased use from payments themselves and social signals from everyone being paid at the same time, producing calls to vary payment timing and frequency. 3/13 doi.org/10.1111/add.15…
1/x I am logging off for 2020 including from Twitter. Reflecting on a great year for the #EV industry:
1. A global pandemic and economic shutdown couldn't stop the industry. Final numbers TBD but I bet on another year of EV #growth and #ICE decline. Will be watching @rhomotion

2/x The make-up of ownership in the #supplychain continues to change. In lithium, Pilbara/Altura and Tianqi/IGO foreshadow that there is potential for more deals across the full supply chain before prices rise. Will be watching @amiller_bmi for more

3/x Yes, the #battery #chemicals price spikes will happen - my personal prediction is within the next 18 months. See point #1 - another year of not-enough-investment-in-supply isnt going to make demand easier to meet. Will be watching @CDMRawles for more
Es momento de un hilo, para explicar esta coyuntura la cual, tiene diversas aristas:
1. La narrativa de @GobiernoMX y medios afines a @lopezobrador_ quienes mezclan conceptos de tal suerte que crean confusión y un discurso engañoso entre #ReformaEnergetica y @EmilioLozoyaAus

2. Separación de los temas de Corrupción en @Pemex por parte de @EmilioLozoyaAus y su lejanía verdadera como "operador político" en pro de la #ReformaEnergetica
3. La #ReformaEnergetica como un mecanismo de transparencia de operaciones y actividades reguladas.

4. Usar a @EmilioLozoyaAus como un mecanismo para distraer a la opinión pública de las pérdidas criminales y masivas que han generado @rocionahle @ManuelBartlett @lopezobrador_ y ORO al Estado mexicano con @Pemex @CFEmx y @Refineria2Bocas

1/ There has been acute fuel shortages in ZW for period up to 2008 & from 2016 to date.
What are the public policies in operation that have either caused the shortages or have not ended them?

3/ #Petroleum - rock oil, oily inflammable substance occurring naturally in certain rock beds." This is from Medieval Latin petroleum, from Latin petra ("rock") + oleum ("oil").
"Petroleum" word was first used in 1556 by the German mineralogist Georg Bauer (Georgius Agricola).
