Meanwhile in Scotland, the Orkney Isles offer a model for publicly owned wind power schemes that retain profits in the locality.
If the green transition is to be accelerated then this model of green development looks like a viable way of pushing on with the move to renewables.
Energy *should* be a publicly owned utility as its privatisation has demonstrated - so, make the green transition a transition in ownership too?
Thank you so much for clarifying the difference between growth and amount @ashwinvis

Attached: 1 image Xi is pushing climate, study shows Enabling climate acceleration are economic sectors such as land use, China coal, Saudi Aramco, Coal India, Gazprom (Russia), National Iranian Oil — in that order. 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.

Some institutions gain attention by pleasing!
The person who stated that "it is clear multi-lateral action on climate has helped to slam the brakes on global emissions growth" is spinning a COP-compatible narrative. He is "Net Zero Tracker Lead".
The Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit #ECIU issued the report entitled "global emissions growth in sharp decline".

Attached: 1 image NATO countries are forcing #climate, study shows Many activities continue to send carbon in the air. #CO2 output forces climate change. The Greenhouse Forcing project has just calculated the amounts in 2024. Energy is extracted notably by investor-owned companies based in NATO countries at 5.6 G/year. The biggest corporate contributors are ExxonMobil, Shell, BP. Following The Paris Agreement, countries should decrease #carbon #emissions by 2% year on year. http://data.yt/projections/ @climate@a.gup.pe
@peterdutoit Thanks for sharing!
For the #Netherlands I found 21%.
And I observed the stark impact of fiscal measures ("bijtelling") around year's end.
Plus many countries have a large share of non-plugin hybrids while some others negligible (#NL).
En what happened in #Latvia where all new non-plugin hybrids seem to have become petrol (perhaps no longer counting them as a separate category for fiscal reasons)?

From protest to profession. 🌍
At the Youth4Peace Final Conference in Lisbon, Youth Climate Leaders showed what the next phase of climate action looks like — education as infrastructure, employability as activism, and systems thinking as civic intelligence.
Born in Brazil and thriving across the Lusophone world, YCL is training a generation to build the green transition from the inside out.
