"The prospects of the world staying within the 1.5C limit on global heating have brightened owing to the “staggering” growth of renewable energy and green investment in the past two years, the chief of the world’s energy watchdog has said.
Fatih Birol, the executive director of the International Energy Agency, and the world’s foremost energy economist, said much more needed to be done but that the rapid uptake of solar power and electric vehicles were encouraging.
“Despite the scale of the challenges, I feel more optimistic than I felt two years ago,” he said in an interview. “Solar photovoltaic installations and electric vehicle sales are perfectly in line with what we said they should be, to be on track to reach net zero by 2050, and thus stay within 1.5C. Clean energy investments in the last two years have seen a staggering 40% increase.” ...
The IEA, in a report entitled Net Zero Roadmap, published on Tuesday morning, also called on developed countries with 2050 net zero targets, including the UK, to bring them forward by several years.
The report found “almost all countries must move forward their targeted net zero dates”, which for most developed countries are 2050. Some developed countries have earlier dates, such as Germany with 2045 and Austria and Iceland with 2040 and for many developing countries they are much later, 2060 in the case of China and 2070 for India.
Cop28, the UN climate summit to be held in Dubai this November and December, offered a key opportunity for countries to set out tougher emissions-cutting plans, Birol said.
He wants to see Cop28 agree a tripling of renewable energy by 2030, and a 75% cut in methane from the energy sector by the same date. The latter could be achieved at little cost, because high gas prices mean that plugging leaks from oil and gas wells can be profitable...
He also called for Cop28 to agree a doubling of energy efficiency. “To reduce fossil fuel emissions, we need to reduce demand for fossil fuels. This is a golden condition, if we are to reach our climate goals,” he said.
Birol stopped short of endorsing the call that some countries have made for a full phase-out of fossil fuels by 2050 to be agreed at Cop28, but he said all countries must work on reducing their fossil fuel use."

The “enormously powerful Atlas Network, a global network of more than 500 member think tanks advocating for “free market” policies.”
Started by Antony Fisher and his Institute of Economic Affairs in the UK. It went worldwide with assistance from the Koch family and Rupert Murdoch, along with funding from big oil companies.

ROTTMNT AU were instead of Lou Jitsu being bitten by a rat, he is hurt by Big mama when Draxum gargoyles guys try to kidnap Jitsu and when the mutageon/ooze thing affects him he becomes a smaller version of a spider Yokai and is 5x painful...
I have a design, but I need to sleep first...

“The IEA was specifically created to counter the post-war social democratic consensus through a re-direction of the narrative. Their tactics from the outset have concentrated on an avoidance of scrutiny. Fisher was advised by his ally, Major Oliver Smedley, to give no indication as to their real agenda and to draft the aims of the IEA in “rather cagey terms”.
Those tactics have not changed, and neither have their aims. Complete deregulation. This obviously attracts a lot of interest from industries that are subject to significant regulation for the public good, such as tobacco, fossil fuel, arms, sugar and construction.”

We've known how to build electric cars since long before Tesla came around. And yet, for more than 100 years, we've largely relied on the internal combustion engine running on gasoline to get us from A to B. But that's changing – faster than we might expect.

We're destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn't need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What we can do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we'll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess.

Atılım Gündemi Raporu: "Net sıfıra ulaşmak için işbirliği şart"
Atılım Gündemi Raporu: “Net sıfıra ulaşmak için işbirliği şart”
45 dünya liderinin talebi üzerine Uluslararası Enerji Ajansı (EIA) ve Uluslararası Yenilenebilir Enerji Ajansı (IRENA) tarafından hazırlanan ilk yıllık Atılım Gündemi Raporu (Breakthrough Agenda Report) yayınlandı.
Rapor, küresel ekonominin üçte ikisini temsil eden hükümetlerin, temiz teknoloji taahhüdünü yerine getirmek için gereken eylemlerdeki ilerlemelerin bir değerlendirmesini sunuyor.…

Depending on China alone for supplies could be “very dangerous” – EU Commission
EU Energy Commissioner Kadri Simson stated in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday (April 17) that the world should ensure supply chain diversity and implement a framework to track the progress of strengthening renewable energy by 2030, according to Euractiv.
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) is hosting countries in Abu Dhabi for its annual two-day meeting for deal-making, technical exchange and planning.
The EU had two key messages, delivered by Simson. The first is that the global COP28 pledge to triple renewable energy capacity to 11,000 GW by 2030 required a more rigorous governance structure.
We propose that there should be a monitoring framework that allows us to follow what is happening.
The idea would be formally presented at COP29 in Baku. Simson added that the concept could potentially be harmonised with IRENA and the IEA (International Energy Agency).

Video : Energy efficiency's time has finally arrived
A great Youtube video by the channel Just Have A Think shows how energy efficiency's time has come. Let's review all the facts and be optimistic for a while.
Over the course of the years I have discovered a few Youtube channels that complement my research and sectorial intelligence work on energy / sustainability / climate. One of my latest favorites is Just Have a Think, by David Borlace. With over 545,000 subscribers at the time of writing, his weekly very well put videos showcase stellar research on new technologies or current topics, with just a…
