[Prof Michael E. Mann @MichaelEMann]

Such pernicious technophilia has infected our public discourse over climate change in the wake of @BillGates book & his dismissive take on the potential to decarbonize w/ existing (renewable energy) technology (see: https://t.co/9hZFWBlabo )

"50% of the carbon reductions needed to get to net zero will come from technologies that have not yet been invented"

Great news! I spoke to Harry Potter and he said he will team up with Gandalf, Sherlock Holmes & The Avengers and get started right away!

In other words 50% of #US emission cuts will be deferred to a point in time were we invent and scale some silver bullet technology that we don't know of yet in a market that does not even exist today and all in time to avoid a #ClimateCrisis - sound plan 🤡

#EuropeDay
🎂🇪🇺

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

Today is #EuropeDay! 🇪🇺

On this day in 1950, the Schuman Declaration proposed the creation of a European Coal and Steel Community, the European Union’s ancestor.

Only through unity and solidarity are we able to maintain the European project.

Together we are stronger.

With large inflows of capital into funds that "claim to have a #Sustainability objective" the need for #transparency and robust governing standards that move beyond claims becomes apparent

WIR HABEN GEWONNEN!!! Unserer #Klimaklage vor dem #BVerfG wurde zugestimmt. Es ist riesig. Klimaschutz ist nicht nice-to-have, Klimaschutz ist unser Grundrecht. Jetzt kämpfen wir weiter, für eine 1,5 Grad Politik, die unsere zukünftigen Freiheiten schützt, statt sie zu gefährden.

"The longer we pretend that an incremental greening of finance-as-usual will be sufficient to get to net-zero, the more painful and destabilising the necessary adjustments will be when they come."

The #EU could have prevented #greenwashing with an ambitious #EUTaxonomy & #EUClimateLaw but instead current proposals ensure that EU looses chance to be on the frontline of #ClimateAction
➡ a bitter pill in light of today's #BidenSummit & #EarthDay

#EarthDay2021

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

The EU can ensure the transition in finance and prevent greenwashing with:

✅ a clear EU taxonomy
✅ proposal for a Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive
✅ 6 amendments on sustainability preferences in advice and fiduciary duties

#SustainableFinanceEU #EUGreenDeal

[Greens/EFA in the EU Parliament 🌍 @GreensEFA]

Today could be the last negotiation round on the #EUClimateLaw.

We must save the #EUGreenDeal - we need an ambitious emission reduction target!

E3G's @byfordt spoke to @RHarrabin @BBCEnvironment about how U.S. will want action on China's domestic #coal use for upcoming #climate summit. "China is operating half the world’s coal capacity – and it’s still been expanding despite the pandemic.”
