How expensive is #climatechange?
Very expensive, according to this paper:

[Simon Evans @DrSimEvans]

Climate damages are "6X LARGER than previously thought", says new NBER working paper

– every 1C wipes out 12% of global GDP
– every tonne of CO2 causes >$1,000 of damages

@GernotWagner tells me: "Assuming nobody finds a flaw in this paper, it is going to truly change things"

[CleanTech_SP @CleanTech_SP]

Amazing! Pure electric plus Hybrid sales now 50%. And pure EV rising fast

Shocking: record heat in #June:
#ClimateCrisis

[Zeke Hausfather @hausfath]

BREAKING: June 2023 has blown away all prior records for the month of June, coming in at a staggering 0.16C above the prior record set in 2019.

It was around 1.46C above the typical temperatures we saw in June in the preindustrial era (1850-1899).

#Journalism or #Propaganda?
What's really suspicious is that all these journals line up on the "same side": the #fossilfuel industry.

[Jan Rosenow @janrosenow]

This isn't evidence-based and balanced journalism.

It is an editorial line against anything to do with net zero.

Likely to catch fire? #ICE mostly

[Sawyer Merritt @SawyerMerritt]

ICE cars are 19x more likely to catch fire than EVs, argues the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency, which has compiled the statistics for car fires in 2022.

In 2022, 24 electric or plug-in hybrid cars caught fire in Sweden, which accounts for approximately 0.004% of all electric and PHEV cars in Sweden. Of the entirely fossil fuel-driven cars, around 0.08% caught fire.

The number of fires in electric cars has remained around 20 per year for the last three years, even though the number of electric cars has almost doubled to nearly 611,000, MSB points out.

#Lithium: plenty needed, but not scarce. Mining footprint dwarfed by other metals we already consume. #EV #ElectricVehicle

[Prof Ray Wills @ProfRayWills]

Lithium is now a tier 1 resource,
pivotal to the global economy

(But still a small footprint compared to iron ore - all the metals we mine @VisualCap)

Ah... those were the days!

@BBCWorld British license payers often tell the BBC that paying their bill is even more painful!

#EV #batteries are lasting well - far better than expected:

[Sawyer Merritt @SawyerMerritt]

NEWS: New data from Recurrent Auto show that used EV batteries are lasting far longer than critics claim.

Recurrent surveyed just over 15,000 EV owners. Only 1.5% had replaced their batteries outside of a recall or warranty period. Most of those were older Nissan Leafs lacking liquid battery temperature control systems.

Wonder how a @Tesla #CyberTruck handles? Here's a clip:

[Electrek.co @ElectrekCo]

Tesla Cybertruck spotted testing steering, Elon Musk hypes turning radius

[Ben Franta @BenFranta]

Wow. This is a huge, HUGE deal.

A Dutch court just ORDERED Shell to change its business plan and become Paris-aligned.

THIS will be a judgment heard round the world. A profound legal victory.

[CleanTech_SP @CleanTech_SP]

The rapid growth of #CleanEnergy:

[Simon Evans @DrSimEvans]

WOW

The @IEA just published a new forecast for renewable growth

It is…

* 25% higher than Nov20 forecast
* 40% above May 2020

The IEA says it's "exceptional" – but also the "new normal"

It means renewables will account for 90% of *all* new capacity

#Bitcoin mining is not clean. Faster miners get rewarded - which is part of the problem. Should be cleanest get rewarded. #BTC

[CleanTech_SP @CleanTech_SP]

Yes indeed! #CarbonTax

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

It is high time there was a carbon tax!

#ClimateChange gives extreme swings in weather: not a gentle warming.
Our food supplies are at risk.

[Scott Duncan @ScottDuncanWX]

One extreme to another in less than one week!

Beauvais, France 🇫🇷 broke its monthly heat record on March 31 with a baking +24.8°C and then went on to beat its monthly cold record on April 6 with a chilling -6.9°C.

This violent season flip is brutal for flora and fauna.

#SUV's are bad: consume too many resources and clog busy city streets.
#FossilFuel-powered #SUV's are unacceptable.

[Everything Electric @Everyth1ngElec]

Finally, someone other than me and my mates suggesting that buying a massive, heavy, inefficient petrol or diesel SUV when you live in a city is probably a good example of extreme human stupidity.

[Carbon Brief @CarbonBrief]

How do emissions from meat, dairy and other foods compare?

The climate impact of beef and lamb dwarfs that of other foods.
But producing beef is more than twice as carbon intensive as producing lamb (@_HannahRitchie @OurWorldInData)

We wouldn't have expected that just 5 years ago!

[Herbert Diess @Herbert_Diess]

Impressive plans, @POTUS! Combining economic, social and climate goals is the right way towards decarbonization! Congratulations, America once again takes leadership for the world. Very happy to be able to contribute with our #EV‘s and @ElectrifyAm.
