En plein “backlash écologique”, il y a quand même des victoires et des bonnes nouvelles 👉 Bye Bye les projets puits de pétroles du bassin d’Arcachon 👋
Les mobilisations ont payé ! Bravo aux activistes et à toutes les formes de mobilisations citoyennes 💚

"So, if we want to transition away from fossil fuels to renewable energy, it's going to require our manufacturing an enormous number of PV panels and wind turbines. We're going to have to make that transition something like 10 times the current rate at which we're introducing renewable energy infrastructure."

<<…the Australian government continues to push fossil fuels with the zeal of a drug lord. They brush aside resistance at the supply end, weaken resolve at the demand end, and keep state and territory governments hooked on the money.

Woodside’s motives are clear: keep their shareholders happy. But what’s the government’s excuse? More than 80 per cent of Australia’s gas is exported, most of it royalty-free. Japan, our largest buyer, sells more gas to other countries than it imports from Australia.

The biggest domestic user of Australian gas is the gas industry itself, powering facilities that exist only to serve offshore markets. This isn’t just wasteful – it’s unfair. Australians don’t see the benefits but we bear the climate costs. Despite employing relatively few people and paying little tax, the gas industry holds an unhealthy level of control over government decision-making. It’s undemocratic. Policy is being written for the benefit of gas gougers, not Australians… >>

What are the effects of global warming?…

Since the Industrial Revolution—an event made possible by the use of #fossilfuels in everything from power plants to transportation - #Earth has gotten hotter. 2024 was the hottest year on record and the first year Earth's temperature surpassed 1.5°C (2.7°F)... continue reading at National Geographic #globalwarming #climatechange #polarregions

Nein #IEA, Euer neuer Report zum #Investment in #Energie ist alles andere als transparent, und schon gar nicht neutral dargestellt!
❌ Indem Ihr Investitionen in #Erneuerbare als auch #Atomkraft unter "Clean Power" oder "clean energies" zusammenwerft, vermischt Ihr die #ErneuerbareEnergien (als tatsächliche saubere Energie) mit einer schmutzigen, teuren und gefährlichen #Unsicherheitstechnik, die alles andere als 'clean' ist!!! Wie hoch die konkreten Anteile der einzelnen #Energieträger sind, müssen die interessierten Lesenden sich mühsam aus dem Full-Report raussuchen. Und selbst dort wird es nicht für alle Abbildungen aufgeschlüsselt.
❌Dass dann der Anteil der #Atom-Investitionen nur ein Bruchteil der #ErneuerbarenEnergien ausmacht (ganz abgesehen von der geringen installierten Leistung wegen der hohen spezifischen Kosten der #Hochrisikotechnik), macht es nochmal unseriöser, beides undifferenziert zusammenzuwerfen!
Nur am Rande: sogar die Investitionen in #Batteriespeicher liegen vergleichbar mit #Atomkraft!
❌Im Executive Summary bspw. hätte die #Atomkraft in der Gegenüberstellung nicht unter #CleanEnergies gehört, sondern zu den alten #fossilfuels!

So nicht, das ist #Foulspiel und keine gute wissenschaftliche Praxis! #InternationaleEnergieagenturIEA

In grün dargestellt und als "clean Power" bezeichnet werden Atomkraft, Erneuerbare, Wasserstoffwirtschaft, und Energienetze.

Out there on the frontline of the disaster zones:

"This is climate-fuelled precipitation … rivers falling from the sky, rain bombs, annual rainfall in two nights and this is the new world we live [in]."

And Australia has no national climate adaptation plan.

"Approvals for fossil fuel projects need to stop, and a national disaster plan is needed. Scientists and politicians are warning big policy shifts are needed to mitigate extreme weather impacts, following what farmers describe as unprecedented flooding in the New South Wales Hunter and Mid North Coast regions last month."

Woodside’s North West Shelf approval is by no means a one-off.
Here are 6 other giant gas projects to watch
"The science is clear: no fossil fuel projects can be opened if the world is to avoid catastrophic climate change."
