Viendo las noticias sobre el desabastecimiento de GLP (butano y propano) en la India, recuerdo a mi abuela insistiendo en mantener la caldera individual de carbón con cocina económica porque el carbón iba a ser (según Franco, y repetido en la propaganda del sector) la única fuente de energía que se podía garantizar en España sin recurrir a importaciones.

(A pesar de que ella había vivido el "se acabó el carbón" en el tercer "año triunfal").

#Meat & #dairy dominate the environmental #footprint of diets in Italy—adding >50% to the #carbon footprint and >40% to the water footprint—whereas low-impact foods like #legumes contribute very little.

"The 10 biggest emitters generate roughly two-thirds of the world’s annual #carbon output, and many of them are also responsible for exports of #fossilFuels... the current shock is only a blip. A far bigger crisis looms that will put the cost of living and recessions into an entirely new perspective. If we reach 2C above preindustrial levels... the economic impact of #climate breakdown will be the equivalent of having a new #oil war every single year." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/apr/07/iran-war-global-dependence-fossil-fuels-biggest-emitters-reaping-rewards

As Iran war exposes global dependence on fossil fuels, the biggest emitters are reaping the rewards

Worst polluters hold world’s future in their hands as they benefit from higher fossil fuel prices, but global trends favour renewables

Potentially of interest for non-Somerville residents as well as SomerPoli folks, you can also go to the EPA website and calculate your household's carbon footprint, so you know what the federal gov't thinks is impactful for carbon tracking: https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/carbon-footprint-calculator

(I did this, and had some feedback on things that people in Somerville might do that the EPA doesn't look at, tbh.) #carbon #ecology #SomervilleMA #SomerPoli
