The EU's #CBAM came into force in January, with the intent of reducing #CarbonLeakage.....Good timing!

But, considering that fuel costs are now globally higher (I.e. not just in traditionally carbon intensive regions), CBAM could be seen simply as a revenue-generating tool for renewables. Is there any indication that it could develop in this way?

I must say that I'm completely satisfied with how the climate denialists are crying and wailing right now.

In the future, I'll be calling this time peroid the Squeeze of Hormuz and the sounds the oilheads produced in response the Squeal of Hormuz.

I just got my feed in tariff payment for the winter (mid august to mid march)

It covers my total power bill for the same period

Summer is going to be even better

At every step on our low-carbon journey there have been lots of people saying it won't work.

This tech is so good that the subsidies keep getting reduced - which is fine - the tech keeps getting cheaper and better.

Given the continued discussion of the problem of growth for climate change, the ability to manage some level of economic growth while still attaining Net Zero looks like the holy grail for Liberal greens (those who see a de-growth strategy as too politically dangerous).

While we are already seeing relative de-coupling, to achieve net zero Farooq Sher (NTU) argues an absolute decoupling must be achieved!

But, this doesn't look easy!

Why ‘decoupling’ energy emissions from economic growth underpins the green transition

Net zero isn’t just about renewables. Decoupling shows how smarter energy systems, efficiency, and technology let economies grow while cutting emissions.

Ugh, not this thing again...

Look, there will always be people who believe that 2+2=5. There will always be "groups" that are impossible to "reach" because they never want to hear the truth.

Instead of wasting our time and resources on trying to speak with those who actively insulate their false convictions from the reality, how about we focus on building our movement, strengthening our momentum and helping our activists?

In the next week or so, shipments of Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) will reach their destinations marking the end of supplies from the Middle East now halted by the US/Israeli attack(s) on Iran & the Iranian response.

After that (given the damage to LNG facilities in the region of the war), there will be between three to five years of constrained supply & higher prices.

Essentially exactly what's needed to drive an accelerated green transition (ironic, huh?)

Not quite how I imagined the green transition would go, but I suppose it is one way to "keep it in the ground"

Iran vows to destroy Middle East water and energy facilities if US attacks power plants

Tehran’s response to Trump’s threat signals a potentially dangerous escalation as both sides menace sites relied on by millions
