Europe’s ‘staggering’ clean power gains undermined by failure to phase out fuel-burning machines

The EU’s reluctance to replace petrol cars and gas boilers keep it hooked on foreign fuels, say industry groups

The Guardian
@ai6yr a great explainer. Sadly the people who need to be reached don’t appear to read these types of articles. It’s been pretty obvious to me, once I got past the FUD of the fossil lobby, that the greenhouse effect was big trouble. We need to be teaching the greenhouse effect and its ramifications in schools, units and trade schools as a matter of urgency! Simply the facts, what the effect is, what causes the imbalance, the current solution-get off fossils and electrify everything. Make mandatory teaching.

@davidho every new combustion vehicle, furnace, cook stove, water heater etc. will likely burn for another 20 years

Just small decisions individuals can make, most aren’t building a LNG terminal in their backyard but in the absence of a functioning government perhaps it’s the best we can do.

@petergleick

The crazy rhing is that #electrifyeverything and #renewables have brushed by price parity some time ago and financially, they are all lower cost.

#Fossilfuels like large SUVs and Detroits supersized pickups are propelled by a legacy marketing triumph, and now, pure disinformatiom by market players and their thinktank operatives.

" #ElectroStates are the exact opposite of #PetroStates. Electrified economies powered by renewables rely less on territorial control & more on technology, grids, manufacturing capacity & finance. #EnergyTransition is therefore not just an emission strategy, but a peace strategy."

"Oil dependence creates incentives for regime change, military occupation & erosion of international law. #PetroStates don't just extract energy. They export volatility resulting in a global system where climate & geopolitical breakdowns reinforce one another. #ElectroStates are the exact opposite."

🔌🚗 Electric mobility in Germany: Untapped Potential!

Electric mobility has been slow to take off, but there are positive trends. I summarize them in the new #DIW Berlin Weekly Report, based on data collected on the #OpenEnergyTracker. (English version of a report first published in 🇩🇪 in February)

DIW Berlin: Electric Mobility in Germany: Untapped Potential

A rapid transition from combustion engines to electric vehicles is essential for climate protection in road transport. This report highlights current trends in electric mobility in Germany based on data from the Open Energy Tracker platform. Although new registrations of electric passenger cars and commercial vehicles have recently increased, overall, electric mobility is still developing slowly. Newly ...

"Oil is not just an energy source. It's a geopolitical accelerant that rewards coercion, undermines sovereignty and normalises permanent crisis. The Venezuela invasion illustrates #Petrostate logic at its most extreme. This is not an aberration, but a pattern."
