Home ━ The European Conservative [Unofficial]Berlin Doubles Down on Costly Green Policies with Stricter Emissions Law
Eric Maugendre about carbon"Why are the targets for reducing emissions not being met or now even agreed? The answer is money. Despite the harm, the world’s governments provided $956bn in direct fossil fuel subsidies in 2023."

Since 2021, China coal sends more carbon in the air than NATO equities and Arab states combined. The China coal sector is increasing capacity and is delivering 12.7 GtCOe in 2024.

"Wielding the power of #credit, commercial banks get to determine the allocation of investment and therefore determine what gets produced."
Sovereign states can easily "impose rules that limit the quantity of finance that commercial banks can invest in problem sectors."

Credit guidance: how we achieve degrowth — Jason Hickel
Degrowth scholarship calls for reducing less-necessary production in rich countries to enable faster decarbonization and reverse other ecological pressures. But how can this be achieved? What is the mechanism? For many years ecological economists advocated setting “caps
Financial institutions should have stopped supporting #coal companies years ago. So far, only 88 top financial institutions – less than 23% – have adopted a coal policy including an explicit restriction for coal developers

I agree that our language should be plain.
• Nation-states do not reimburse debt. (They restructure it.)
• Nation-states can obtain funding by issuing they own money (or credit).
• Nation-states invest or spend as much as they want by issuing they own money (or credit).

Mapped: Donald Trump’s Transatlantic Anti-Green Network
As Donald Trump takes his oath of office to become the 47th president of the United States, his second term comes at an ever-more critical time for climate change. Climate scientists have warned that 2024 was the hottest year on record, and without dramatic action to cut greenhouse gas emissions, global pledges to limit warming […]

There is no #transition:
Climate policies reduce annual GHG #emissions by about 1 Gt/year (0.6 to 1.8 giga-tonnes of CO₂-equivalent/year): https://www.inet.ox.ac.uk/publications/climate-policies-that-achieved-major-emission-reductions-global-evidence-from-two-decades
So, policies of climate change #mitigation achieve 2% of the requirements. Emissions continue at around 50 times more: http://data.yt/projections/2024-results.html#overview-chart
