@ethicalfeast @jasonhickel AFIK, DeGrowth policies would address this pitfall but are missing We'll have to curb other economic activity to ramp up global RE infrastructure, its production facilities and its transport – while not increasing but reducing CO2e at LEAST 50% by 2030.
@ethicalfeast @jasonhickel How to meet RE increase reqs and GHG reduction reqs: this sort of practical and very urgent policy proposals are missing from Degrowth lit.
Also missing: proposals of how to quickly & safely (!) steer away from the irresponsible stock/financial market:
@ethicalfeast @jasonhickel I'm fond of this model study Thought-thru, with proposals drawn only from policies already in place in the wild. It's ambitious, while possibly soft enough to gain majorities.
But its gros ff CO2 is really a 2˚C budget. So even this effort doesn't suffice
@ethicalfeast @jasonhickel DeGrowth lit has to address this. Very practically, hands-on.
I lost trust in economists. They ignore physics and / or they sing ballads of a far away paradise where somehow, magically, the current compulsory obsession with growth has vanished. 🦄🪄💫

If #EUGreendeal #GND new infrastructure, its production & transport, adds to current world emissions, and if workers spend earnings on climate sabotage, we're fucked. We've GOT to reduce 50% of CO2e (e !) by 2030.
Stray only a little and the task will fail.eenews.net/stories/106372…
"Irony of Biden's climate plan is that a blitz of construction and manufacturing would almost certainly drive emissions up, at least in the short term"

There's only 1 answer: safely curb global economic activity so 50% less CO2e (e !) by 2030 has a chance.
"Democrats' answer to that paradox is twofold: Clean up American manufacturing and source everything domestically."
The direction of thought is correct. But it's not the thought that counts. CO2e emissions count. And don't forget: not only US and EU are increasing infrastructure

Think about it: With a history of corrupt consulting contracts, VonDerLeyen lets Blackrock write EU's definition on which projects are green energy! Why?! EC has 1000s employees! #CDUkorrupt
And Blackrock got insider knowledge and bought/sold shares accordingly? Same in US
As layperson I'm not sure what it means: "BlackRock ...contract to study how the EU could best integrate environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into its banking supervision." I assume, ESG is EC-wide, not only banking. theguardian.com/business/2020/…. theguardian.com/business/2020/….
Outsourcing sensitive groundwork alone is typical for #CDUkorrupt and must have the correct consequences for @VonDerLeyen: she must step down. She can't be trusted. Her moral compass is totally broken. Typical for CDU CSU.

And on top: deception / greenwashing gas is criminal!

Lesenswert! Den Konsumsektor hat UK 1939-56 erfolgreich & mit Akzeptanz reguliert, indem alles für alle rationiert wurde. So blieb ihr CO2-Ausstoß gleich, während er bei anderen Kriegsparteien stieg. Wegen globaler Jobverluste durch Konsumrationen braucht's aber Degrowth-Politik.
iLike: 1 Hälfte des ProKopf-CO2 liegt im direkten, persönlichen Radius u die andre Hälfte im indirekten Einflussbereich. Das kann bei Menschen das Klima & Massensterben zu ihrem persönlichen Problem machen, um es dann selbst und im System ändern zu wollen.
Es zum eigenen Problem zu machen, to own the problem, ist die Basis für lautstark geforderte Änderung. Solange es im Someone Else's Problem Field bleibt, wie D. Adams die Wunderwaffe nannte, ist man entmachtet und demotiviert. Someone Else soll das Wunder vollbringen, bitte.

Do we have proof? Ja. We can draw from how our elected governments acted in the pandemic: too little too late, always pro-companies not pro-people, corrupt for their own profit in the case of Merkel's CDU CSU, touting voluntary action whereas regulatory enforcement saves lives,..
#2 Do we have proof? Ja. We can draw from their actions in the pandemic.
Although a pandemic is clearly a global and at least a regional rather than national issue, our govts do not act accordingly but leave it to people's voluntary decision not to travel.
#3 Do we have proof? Ja. We can draw from their actions in the pandemic.
Although a pandemic is a global not national issue, our govts do not act like it. In egotistic nationalism worsening the fallout, PPE & vaccines for global medical staff is denied.

@CKemfert @nature Oh. Gut. Aber Du begründest es so, als ob Du nur psycholog. Einwände hast u noch an die theoretische Anwendbarkeit glaubst?
Ich nicht. Rein Carbon-Cycle-mechanisch geht die Rechnung nicht auf, Restemission zu kompensieren.
Hier zT meine Sicht erklärt: threadreaderapp.com/thread/1365506…
1/x
@CKemfert @nature Pflanzenarten haben fossiles CO2 gepuffert u adaptieren sich jetzt an neue Klimaregime =sie sterben und das fossile CO2 bei Feuern oder beim Verrottungsprozess nach Tod wg Wasser- und Käferstress doch noch in die Atmo. Gleichzeitig schrumpft Land Carbon Sink aber aus 2 Gründen
2/
@CKemfert @nature Einmal, weil C3- / C4-Pflanzen nun öfter an die Temperaturgrenze 24˚C/34˚C kommen, bei denen CO2-Respiration ihre Photosynthese überwiegt und sie so zu netto CO2-Quellen werden.
Und 2. weil sich alle Landökosysteme in der Adaption an neue Klimaregime befinden.

Ein Quellen-Thread in loser Fortsetzung zur Nazifizierung der Gesellschaft durch CDU CSU Typen im Amt.

Merkels/ Seehofers Nazifizierung ufert aus! @spdde ist sogar Enabler davon, da sie Überwachungs-Tools legalisiert, die Antifa/Widerstand den Kopf kosten. Und wir halten still?
Wie ein VS-ler aus Horsts Heimatmuseum der Bundeszentrale zur politischen Bildung in die Feder diktiert, was seiner ungebildeten, rrrechten Meinung nach die Definition von Linksextremismus ist.
Heute im Innenausschuss:
"Grüne wollen sich Minister vorknöpfen". Grund ist, dass die Finanzierung von NGO-Projekten zur Bekämpfung des Rechtsextremismus im Umfang von €150mio blockiert ist!

Merkel u #Seehofer? Beides RRechte <hier Schimpfwort einfügen>fr.de/hintergrund/gr…
