#COP28: Die heutige Erklärung von 134 Ländern zu nachhaltigen, widerstandsfähigen Ernährungssystemen und #Klimaschutz ist ein wichtiger Schritt. Darauf muss nun die konkrete Umsetzung folgen. Die EU und Deutschland können und müssen dabei voranschreiten. 🧵
The fossil fuel industry is at the heart of the climate crisis.
The problem is not simply fossil fuel emissions. It’s fossil fuels—period.
Countries must progressively phase them out, moving to leave oil, coal & gas in the ground—and massively boost renewable investments.
You think renewables are "heavily subsidiesed"? Your knowledge is outdate.
Effective subsidy of European offshore wind farms have turned negative.
Offshore farms are not sucking up tax money, they are a source of public revenue.

Two years ago today, we watched the citadel of our republic overrun by an insurrectionist mob, fired up by a defeated president, intent on provoking a coup.
Democracy is not a gift. It's a project.
Let us never forget it!
Wie groß ist die russische #Gaslücke wirklich? Und wie können wir sie verkleinern? @Bundeskanzler Scholz bleibt Antworten auf zentrale Fragen schuldig. Meine Vorschläge, wie diese beantwortet werden sollten. Höchste Zeit für einen seriösen #Prüfprozess: https://t.co/yWcYVMLYuP

The Republicans had no platform in 2020. They ran on no governing agenda in 2022. When there's nothing you want to do legislatively, there's little incentive to stop the cycle of performative outrage which is all that the party has become.
Kernfusion kommt nicht nur zu spät um in der #Klimakrise zu helfen. Sie wird auch langfristig aus elementaren physikalischen Gründen nicht die praktisch unbegrenzte Energiequelle sein, von der manche träumen.
Warum? Das kann jeder nachrechnen. 1/
Der beste Prank des letzten Jahrhunderts ist, dass man es geschafft hat Menschen einzureden dass es an zu hohen Sozialleistungen liegt, wenn sie wenig haben
BREAKING: 🇪🇺VP @TimmermansEU announces here at #COP27 that the EU is ready to increase its emissions reduction target (#NDC) from 55% to 57% by 2030.
“So don’t let anyone tell you, here or outside, that the EU is backtracking.”
That might be important for #ClimateDiplomacy#COP27 : @POTUS Biden and Xi (#China) promise to „work together where our interests align, especially on transnational challenges that affect the international community.“ https://t.co/5NzZr7LL3H
The @4africalliance expresses its gratitude to the UK Government who just announced that they will support our Alliance in expanding our website into a strategic tool for carbon market engagement and capacity building. The total amount to be allocated is 180,000 £. #Cop27
The agreement was made after multiple back & forth, open and & close, larger & small group debates. Hence there were several drafts from both sides. Some being circulated may be earlier versions which may give wrong impression. The following is the agreed and signed one.
Germany is tearing down wind turbines to make way for brown coal. No joke.
The coal from this mine will be 6x more than a 1.5° budget would allow. Also no joke.
This is a policy pushed forward by the Green Party leaders. Still no joke.
