carbonica emessa oltre le soglie specificate, segnando la prima tassa globale di questo tipo sui gas serra (#GHG). Il quadro normativo, la cui elaborazione ha richiesto anni e che attende ancora l’adozione formale a ottobre, dovrebbe entrare in vigore nel 2027.

➡️Una volta entrato in vigore, si applicherà alle grandi navi oceaniche di stazza lorda superiore alle 5.000 tonnellate, responsabili di circa l’85% delle emissioni di #CO₂ della flotta marittima. 2/2

📌In una mossa storica volta a limitare l’impatto climatico del trasporto marittimo globale, l’Organizzazione marittima internazionale (#IMO) ha ottenuto un accordo su un nuovo quadro radicale per ridurre drasticamente le emissioni di gas serra (#GHG) delle navi.

✅️Dopo intensi negoziati a #Londra, molte delle principali nazioni del settore marittimo mondiale hanno concordato di introdurre una tassa minima di 100 dollari per tonnellata di anidride 1/n

If you are forced to fly, you will find the number of flights appear to be fewer, and most of the flights are still jammed full - because it is a smaller airframe with fewer seats.

So, yes, there may be less #GHG #emissions over-all. And it certainly appears there are fewer planes (or smaller) in the air. Boeing is having corporations refusing deliveries, apparently, though that may be for other reasons…

Finally!

Climate experts expressed shock and dismay at the move. “It would be a bit like unplugging the equipment that monitors the vital signs of a patient that is critically ill,” one said.

Companion animals - a reason for living

For many dog owners the companionship of dogs is often
“literally the only reason to survive,
to get up, to still keep going.
It gives them a reason to get up,
a reason to get out,
a reason to move around and
be in contact a little bit with the world outside."

Pet dogs have ‘extensive and multifarious’ impact on environment, new research finds

Scale of environmental damage attributed to huge number of dogs globally as well as ‘lax or uninformed behaviour of dog owners’

The Guardian

Pet dogs pose significant threat to wildlife and ecosystems

"Many owners simply don't realize the environmental damage dogs can cause, from disturbing wildlife to polluting ecosystems...Others may feel their individual actions won't make a difference, leading to a 'tragedy of the commons' where shared spaces like beaches and woodlands suffer cumulative degradation."

Study finds pet dogs pose significant threat to wildlife and ecosystems

New Curtin University research into the overlooked environmental impact of pet dogs has found far-reaching negative effects on wildlife, ecosystems and climate.

The environmental impacts of man’s best friend
We give a free pass to dogs and their owners

Study "highlighted the impacts of the world’s “commonest large carnivore” in killing and disturbing native wildlife, particularly shore birds."

A "study of animals taken to the Australia Zoo wildlife hospital found that mortality was highest after dog attacks, which was the second most common reason for admission after car strikes."

"The researchers attributed the extent of the environmental impacts to the sheer number of dogs globally, as well as “the lax or uninformed behaviour of dog owners. A lot of what we’re talking about can be ameliorated by owners’ behaviour... pointing out that low compliance with leash laws was a problem."

“If nothing else, pick up your own dog shit."
