Interview mit Mia Mottley, der Premierministerin von Barbados und Hauptvorkämpferin der von ihr ins Leben gerufenen Bridgetown Initiative zur Klimafinanzierung für den globalen Süden. Mottley geht auf die Schuldenkrise in vielen Ländern nach der Pandemie ein und fordert, wie sie sagt, unorthodoxe CO2-Steuern, z.B Abgaben von fossilen Konzernen und Fluggesellschaften. Die derzeit Mächtigen verhinderten eine wirksame Klimafinanzierung, obwohl es Fortschritte z.B. bei Finanzinstitutionen gebe. Dass Finanztransfers vor allem zu einer klimagerechten Transformation nötig sei, werde nicht anerkannt. https://taz.de/Barbados-Premier-ueber-Klimakrise/!5994100/

In recent years, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has emerged as a global leader in sustainable development, embarking on a transformative journey towards environmental stewardship and economic diversification.

Junk Removal companies also play a pivotal role in the UAE's sustainability equation by providing essential waste management services that promote resource recovery and recycling. By responsibly disposing of unwanted items and recyclable materials, these companies help divert waste from landfills and minimize environmental pollution, contributing to a cleaner, healthier environment.

Über 25 Städte haben sich inzwischen dem plant based treaty angeschlossen, darunter Edinburgh Amsterdam und Los Angeles und eine Reihe indischer Städte. Viel ist nicht die völlige Eliminierung von Fleisch und Milch aus der lokalen Küche sondern ihre Klima- und gesundheitsfreundliche konsequente Reduzierung. Vorbild ist die Initiative für den fossil fuel non poliforation pretty. .https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/28/climate/plant-based-treaty-climate.html

Ausführlicher Bericht über die sehr ambitionierte, auf grünes Wächstum ausgerichtete Klimapolitik Kaliforniens unter Gouverneur Gavin Newsom. Dem Artikel zufolge sind die Ziele Newsoms kaum zu erreichen, vor allem weil der Bedarf an Strom nicht klimaneutral gedeckt werden kann. Newsom gilt als potenzieller demokratischer Präsidentschaftskandidat 2028. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/23/climate/gavin-newsom-california-climate-action.html

Bei der Mehrheit der großen Konzerne des Food- und Restaurantsektors steigen die Emissionen obwohl diese Firmen sich zur Dekarbonisierung verpflichtet haben. Diese Ziele lassen sich aber nicht mit den Wachstumsstrategien der Unternehmen vereinbar machen. Dabei ist die Emissionsintensität der Fleisch- und Weizenproduktion der wichtigste Faktor. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/22/business/food-companies-emissions-climate-pledges.html

Bei dem afrikanischen klimagipfel in Nairobi zeichnen sich Konflikte über einen Ausstieg aus fossilen Energien ab. Einige Länder, darunter Nigeria und Senegal, wollen die vorhandenen und zum Teil gerade entdeckten Ressourcen ausbeuten.

In Nairobi findet in dieser Woche der erste afrikanische klimagipfel statt. Ein zentrales Thema sind Funanzierungsleistungen des globalen Nordens. Viele Initiativen besonders der kenianischen Präsidentschaft sind umstritten. NGOs befürchten, dass sie die Länder, die die Klima-Katastrophe verursachen, entlasten und nicht zur Minderung der Emissionen beitragen.

In Hobart treffen sich Antarktis-Forschende zu einem Symposion, bei dem die neuesten Daten zum antarktischen Meereis und den Temperaturen der die Antarktis umgebenden Ozeane besprochen werden. Im Juli nahm das Meereis um die Antarkris 15% weniger Fläche ein als 1981-2010. Die Abnahme begann 2016 und hat wie die Temperatursteigerungen der Ozean ein dramatisches Ausmaß erreicht. Die Abnahme kann schwerwiegende Folgen für das Festlandseis und die Meeresströmungen haben.

Bericht von Bloomberg Green über grüne Investitionen von Venture-Kapitalisten. Im Vordergrund stehen - oft mit öffentlicher Beteiligung - nicht mehr die schon eingeführten Technologien zur Energieerzeugung sondern Elektrifizierung neuer Bereiche und auch das Speichern von CO2. 2022 würden ca. 70 Milliarden USD venture Capital und insgesamt 652 Milliarden in Climate Tech investiert. Der International Renewable Energy Agency zufolge müssen sich die Investitionen jährlich vervierfachen. https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2023-climate-tech-startups-where-to-invest/?srnd=green&leadSource=uverify%20wall

Biocentric includes man and includes him in an appropriately prioritized order. An anthropocentric view should be a biocentric, ecocentric, charitable, human view simply because humans are (among other things) organisms, situated in ecosystems, capable of charity, love, humility and that is in fact what makes us human. What is best for the environment is what is best for humans and everything else.

Interesting idea. The only thing is that the science is not where we would like it to be. Most of the accusing will need to be done in retrospect. In that case, many will have lost culpability due to insufficient knowledge. I just wonder how this will hold up in a court of law for most practical cases. For some large-scale cases, I can see it working, as long as the effects are enormous.

We need to recognize different values and think that people value land entitlements, family and community, the elderly, connectivity. If we value these, we will want to hear these things reported all the time. Marketing will follow suit. Perhaps marketing will be the first to move...
