Greenhouse gas emissions continue to decline in the EU!

From 2013 to 2024, greenhouse gas emissions from the EU economy decreased by 20% while its gross value added increased by 20%. 

The biggest reductions came from:
⬇️ Energy sector: -49%
⬇️ Mining and quarrying: -37%
⬇️ Manufacturing: -18%

We’re moving in the right direction and showing that climate action and economic growth can go hand-in-hand.

@Lydie @lucien probably costs more than a new one, right? Although eventually it might pay off.

I was a bit sad that lifepo4 isn't an option yet, unless you're willing to pay ~3x as much

@lucien @Lydie similarly, I fixed old school hdds in the freezer, allowed my to get almost all the data off.

Also tried to revive my frozen car battery by putting it on the central heating inside, went from 2V to 8.5V, so ultimately still dead :/

@jmaris so I thought, well to make it fair you would need to count the discovery with seats down. Turns out with all the seats down, it's still only 2.4 m3

About a year ago I modded my espresso machine but I finally managed to write a post about it!

Even the right-wing Cato Institute is sounding the alarm about the Trump regime's headlong race into fascism. That's more than I can say for Big Journalism, which mostly continues to ever-so-politely do both-sides stenography.

For god's sake, journalists, take a stand. Now.
