The EU needs to increase its 2030 #ParisAgreement goal. New #renewables & #EnergyEfficiency targets take it beyond 47% below 1990. A step in the right direction, but faster and deeper decarbonisation is needed. @EU_Commission https://t.co/4XgEWIK3rY

1/2: If the #US rolls back its 2022-2025 car standards & the fleet stays at the 2021 level, US #emissions could increase by 22 MtCO2e in 2025, and 76 MtCO2e in 2030 above the CAT current policy scenario. #climate #EPA #decarbonisation

How can various sectors decarbonise to meet the #ParisAgreement temperature limits? We’ve now looked at 7 sectors: #freight, #appliances, #agriculture, #industry (steel, cement), #gas, #buildings and #transport. Full series here: https://t.co/erQdKWgWeN

Reluctant #climate leader? #India’s renewables taking off, needs no new #coal generation after 2022, its own plan confirms. Any new coal plants cld be #StrandedAssets. Its #NDC, rated “2˚C Compatible,” almost already met. https://t.co/Y0aYQE77sM

@RedsforNamesake If you phase out nuclear you either have to increase RES or your emissions increase. New nukes don't make economic sense.

[Andrzej Ancygier @Ancygier]

@ApusNL @DrSimEvans Yes, they can and significant progress has been made.Intergation will be a challenge but doable without CCS and nuclear

[Andrzej Ancygier @Ancygier]

@JvDorp Trying to make nuclear competitive since the 1960s. Instead it's getting more expensive. Also too inflexible to match renewables.

[Andrzej Ancygier @Ancygier]

@ApusNL @DrSimEvans Offshore wind energy is not the only alternative. Solar, onshore wind, geothermal and bioenergy could do the trick.

[Andrzej Ancygier @Ancygier]

@RedsforNamesake @DrSimEvans @CA_Latest Due to its inflexibility nuclear is not an optimal match for renewables.

@MoMorawiecka Isn't the state of the PGE a sign of bad governance, both at the national and company level? https://t.co/rB1a637Fb4

@Oliver_Geden @jpjmarti @BillHareClimate Reducing the emissions fast to avoid need for too much negative emissions is #DontLoseTheBigPicture

@jpjmarti @Oliver_Geden @AncygierP @BillHareClimate Indeed: 44 pages long. The focus and length of the article were different.

[Andrzej Ancygier @Ancygier]

@Oliver_Geden @AncygierP @jpjmarti @BillHareClimate Yes, you can. Never assumed 1.5C will be easy. But possible if the will is there.

[Andrzej Ancygier @Ancygier]

@Oliver_Geden @jpjmarti @ConversationEDU @BillHareClimate. We didn't mention a few other things as well. It's an article not IPCC Report.
