But those claims are false../\..Americans will suffer the consequences in higher electric bills. So finds a report released Thursday by think tank Energy Innovation warning lawmakers of the costs of repealing the clean-energy tax credits created by the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, the Biden administration’s signature climate law.""Key members of the Trump administration have disparaged clean energy as a wasteful distraction while praising fossil gas and coal."“We looked at a state-by-state level at energy bills as well as jobs and economic growth,” said Robbie Orvis, Energy Innovation’s senior director of modeling and analysis. “Across the board, repealing the IRA is going to make it more expensive for the average household — and in some states, dramatically.”"...Under the “repeal” scenario, annual consumer energy bills would be more than $6 billion higher for U.S. households in 2030 and more than $9 billion higher in 2035. Translated to individual households, energy costs would increase by an average of $48 per year in 2030 and $68 per year in 2035, and continue to rise in future years.""Republican leaders have committed to slashing federal spending to pay for the cost of extending the multi-trillion-dollar tax cut passed during the first Trump administration, which primarily benefits corporations and wealthy individuals.""Why clean power is cheaper power The reason repealing these tax credits would drive up costs is simple, Orvis said. Solar and wind energy can supply U.S. power grids with electricity at lower long-term cost than alternatives such as coal, gas, and nuclear power plants.""Over the past decade, solar and wind power have become the cheapest source of new electricity generation across the majority of the world,...""A study from think tank RMI found that portfolios of solar, wind, and batteries paired with utility energy-efficiency investments can serve grid needs at a lower cost than newly built gas-fired power plants.""That lack of fuel cost, along with lower operations and maintenance costs, make wind and solar a long-run winner financially.""Energy developers and utilities are following the money. Last year, solar, batteries, and wind made up more than 90 percent of the 56 gigawatts of power capacity built in the U.S.""An ‘energy emergency’ — false claims versus real solutions ... It [Trump admin] has also declared a “national energy emergency” that casts renewable energy as a threat to grid reliability and calls for expanded use of fossil fuels as the solution.""And while the variability of wind and solar power generation is intimately tied to weather, traditional power plants have proven to be far less reliable than their backers have claimed, particularly during winter cold snaps like those that led to massive grid outages in Texas in 2021 and across the U.S. Southeast in 2022.""As for clean energy’s relationship to rising electricity prices, an Energy Innovation report last year highlighted that surging electric utility costs in recent years are linked not to renewables but other factors, including spikes in fossil gas prices following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the increasing cost of expanding and maintaining utility power grids.""Other states with aggressive clean-energy mandates, such as California and Massachusetts, also have some of the country’s most expensive electricity, the report says. But those costs are more closely driven by aging infrastructure, “expensive imported fossil fuels” in the case of Massachusetts, or in California, “natural disaster damage” — namely, the massive costs of wildfires, many caused by utility grid failures, and the investments meant to prevent more of them.""Wright [Trump admin] also mocked the idea that wind, solar, and batteries could completely replace fossil fuels for providing reliable round-the-clock generation capacity." "The U.S. is experiencing a first-in-decades boom in demand for electricity, driven by new data centers and factories in the short term,""New solar, wind, and battery projects can be built in roughly half that time, making them a vital near-term solution to rising power demand, NextEra Energy CEO John Ketchum told The New York Times at CERAWeek, adding that “if you take renewables and storage off the table, we’re going to force electricity prices to the moon.”<a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TakeCareForLife</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TakeCareForEarth</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopBurningThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopBurningThings</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopEcoside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopEcoside</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopThePlunder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopThePlunder</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateBreakDown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClimateBreakDown</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopRapingNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopRapingNature</a>

Not only is this a very gross violation of the sanctions against Russia's oilboycot, but it's also very dangerous for the environment. The old ships avoid all kinds of international and EU obligated safety rules. Labour rules don't exist. Month ago in a moderate storm two of these ship got in trouble, one of them broke and Russian environmentalists are still cleaning the occupied Crimm coast.Moreover the isolation of the Russian economy and the consequential collaps of its economy is undermined because some all ready very very rich people wanted to make more quick money. This makes me so mad.... Here am I, skimping on my groceries in order to donate to NAFO-trucks.

German, Norwegian, British and above all Greek businesses profited from exceptionally high prices for old, rusty and unsafe tankers. These ships are now used to transport Russian oil, circumvent sanctions, and fund Russia's war in Ukraine.""The shadow fleet is used to transport Russian oil above the price cap introduced by Western countries. This indirectly provides the Russian state with billions of dollars in revenue to fund the war against Ukraine.""Paris Kassidokostas-Latsis is no stranger to wealth or headlines. The 42-year-old film producer, once engaged to American socialite Paris Hilton, is an heir to one of Greece’s richest families and has built a reputation that bridges the worlds of Hollywood glamour and the maritime world. The entrepreneur who looks more like a rockstar than a businessman made headlines once more last autumn when his company Marla Tankers sold two oil tankers for a reported 84 million dollars.""A total of more than 6 billion dollars has flowed into the coffers of Western shipping magnates since the start of the war in February 2022""Avoiding EU bans The European Union banned the direct sale of ships to Russian companies in late 2023 – but that didn’t deal a big blow to the shadow fleet. That’s because almost all of the vessels are, on paper, not owned by Russians – instead, they’re registered with companies in India, on the Seychelles, in Hong Kong, or Vietnam. Selling to these third countries is not illegal.""With Russian demand for old tankers hiking up prices, shipowners around the world saw a chance to sell a tanker for good money, tankers which in many cases would have been destined to be sold for scrap.""One of them is Belgian marine transport company Euronav – which recently changed its name to CMB.TECH – received 135 million dollars for five vessels that ended up in Russia’s shadow fleet in 2022 and early 2023. Spokesperson Katrien Hennin said it hadn’t known the vessels would be used for that purpose. “We have no insight into what happens to the ships after the sale and that is not our responsibility. To whom the buyer resells a ship or how he operates the ship legally or illegally is beyond our control,” Hennin said.""A ship broker, who requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the discussions, said it ultimately came down to profits. “An investor is only interested in one thing, and that is money. I think the ethical line is very thin,” the broker said. “If it's allowed, they'll do it.” Overall, Greek shipowners sold ships worth almost 4 billion dollars, UK-based companies sold 22 tankers to the tune of 590 million dollars in total, and German shipowners raked in 190 million dollars.""Part of the reason why the EU has been slow in ramping up its sanctions regime for ships is because of internal resistance. Greece, alongside other maritime countries like Cyprus and Malta, has at times frustrated any attempts to ramp up sanctions.""At the end of January, the Fos Picasso docked at the Indian port of Mangalore, where the oil has been unloaded and processed. Similarly, the second tanker Fos Da Vinci is currently cruising on the Indian Ocean. It seems to be heading to India as well, where it is likely to unload the oil worth millions of dollars that it is transporting."<a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/SlavaUkraini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SlavaUkraini</a> ! <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/HeroyamSl%C3%A1va" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HeroyamSláva</a>! <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/RussiaIsATerroristState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RussiaIsATerroristState</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopEcoside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopEcoside</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopRapingNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopRapingNature</a>

Multiple neighborhoods have been completely burned down, including in the town of Altadena, where our guest, climate scientist and activist Peter Kalmus, lived until two years ago, when increasing heat and dryness pushed Kalmus to leave the Los Angeles area in fear of his safety. "I couldn't stay there," he says. "It's not a new normal. … It's a staircase to a hotter, more hellish Earth." Kalmus discusses an op-ed he recently published in The New York Times about the decision, which he says was toned down by the paper's editors when he attempted to explain that fossil fuel companies' investment in climate change denial and normalization has only accelerated the pace of unprecedented large-scale climate disasters. "This is going to get worse," he warns, "Everything has changed."

As of January 1, every single one of them — including 98 fire stations, two international airports, and two of the largest water treatment plants on the planet — is running on renewable energy, thanks largely to Illinois’ newest and largest solar farm."“It’s a plan that gets the city to take action on climate and also leverages our buying power to generate new opportunities for Chicagoans and the state,” said Angela Tovar, Chicago’s chief sustainability officer. “There’s opportunities everywhere.”"Swift Current began construction on the 3,800-acre, 593-megawatt solar farm in central Illinois as part of the same five-year, $422 million agreement. Straddling two counties in central Illinois, the Double Black Diamond Solar project is now the largest solar installation east of the Mississippi River.""Chicago alone has agreed to purchase approximately half the installation’s total output, which will cover about 70 percent of its municipal buildings’ electricity needs. City officials plan to cover the remaining 30 percent through the purchase of renewable energy credits." [ so it's NOT really renewable if you're buying 'credits' JdeB]"Deputy Chief Sustainability Officer Jared Policicchio [. He] added that he hopes the city’s demand for 100 percent renewable energy will encourage additional clean energy development locally, albeit on a much smaller scale, which will create new sources of power that the city can then purchase directly, in lieu of credits.""More than 700 other U.S. cities and towns have signed similar purchasing agreements since 2015, according to a 2022 study from the World Resources Institute. Only one city, Houston, has a larger renewable energy deal than Chicago, according to Matthew Popkin, the cities and communities U.S. program manager...""Chicago also secured a $400,000 annual commitment from Constellation and Swift Current for clean energy workforce training, including training via Chicago Women in Trades..."“Cities and other local governments just don’t appreciate their ability to not just support their residents but also shape markets,” said Popkin [U.S. program manager]. Chicago is demonstrating directly how cities can lead by example, implement ambitious goals" "Alex Dane [World Resource Institute’s senior manager for clean energy innovation and partnerships in the U.S. energy program], said many cities have set two renewable energy goals: one for municipal operations and a second goal for the community at large. Even though the latter is “a little bit harder to get to, and the timeline is a little bit further out,” “That is an imperative thing to know, that state, city, county action is a durable pathway, even under the next administration, and [it] needs to happen,” said Dane. “The juice is definitely still worth the squeeze.”<a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TakeCareForLife</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TakeCareForEarth</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopBurningThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopBurningThings</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopEcoside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopEcoside</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateBreakDown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClimateBreakDown</a>

Here’s why they’re suing." by Anita Hofschneider for Grist [Aug 08, 2024] [Audio included]<a href="https://grist.org/indigenous/indigenous-youth-are-at-the-center-of-major-climate-lawsuits/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://grist.org/indigenous/indigenous-youth-are-at-the-center-of-major-climate-lawsuits/</a>Quotes: "If I don't do it, who will?""On August 8, 2023, 13-year-old Kaliko was getting ready for her hula class at her mother’s house in West Maui../\..Within hours, Kaliko learned this wasn’t a normal fire, and that her dad’s house was gone.""This summer she was part of a group of plaintiffs who forced the state of Hawaiʻi to agree to decarbonize its transportation system,..""Now 14, she has spent the past year going to protests and testifying at water commission meetings to defend Indigenous water rights.""Across the country and globe, young people are filing lawsuits to try to hold governments and companies accountable for their role in promoting climate change.""In May, eight Alaska residents age 11 to 22 — half of whom are Alaska Native — sued the state to block a liquefied natural gas pipeline project that’s expected to triple the state’s greenhouse gas emissions.""In June, Indigenous youth and environmental groups in New Mexico won a key initial victory in a lawsuit challenging the oil and gas industry.""In July, the Montana Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Held v. Montana, a lawsuit brought by Montana youth challenging the state’s law that forbids agencies from considering climate change in their environmental reviews.""In 2022, Indigenous youth in Australia won a major victory against a destructive coal project.""A few years earlier, Indigenous youth in Colombia joined a broader youth lawsuit that affirmed the rights of the Amazon to protection and conservation.""The lawsuit Kaliko helped bring wasn’t centered on Indigenous legal rights but most of the plaintiffs were Native youth like her, and they collectively secured one of the most successful outcomes in the history of U.S. climate litigation.""To Katy Stewart, [Aspen Center’s Center for Native American Yout], the willingness of Indigenous youth like Kaliko to take the lead in these cases makes sense.""For teenagers like Kaliko, litigation offers an opportunity to force change in a political and economic system that has long resisted calls to climate action. It also feels like a necessary step to protect her home." “It’s really important to me that other kids don’t have to go through what I’ve experienced and that’s what drives me to do this stuff,” Kaliko said. “But it’s really just like the thought of, ‘If I don’t do it, then who will?’”"Randy Yellowman [killed in an explosion in 2019] had been on the job 17 years when he was killed. Johnny Juarez, an enrolled member of the Pueblo of Laguna, knows Native families whose parents and grandparents worked in the oil fields and see it as a viable career for themselves and their children.""“What a just transition looks like to us is centering those families that are going to be most impacted and making sure that they get the support they need,”"Juarez’s family left the reservation because of the uranium pollution, and Juarez grew up in Albuquerque, where he was raised by his grandfather, a former sheepherder and graduate of a federal Indian boarding school."“This was actually a fight that I was really born into,” Juarez said. “The fossil fuel industry and fossil fuel extraction and fracking and oil and gas exploration is really just the next chapter in colonial extractivism in New Mexico.”"That’s exactly how Beze Gray of the Aamjiwnaang First Nation in Canada feels. In 2019, they joined a group of seven young people, three of whom are Indigenous, who sued the government of Ontario for weakening its climate goals.""Even though Juarez’s lawsuit passed its first legal hurdle, it’s far from clear whether it’ll be successful." "Gray’s case, too, has faced setbacks and is awaiting a ruling on appeal." "Many climate lawsuits don’t go anywhere — a court decides..""Those disappointments have taught plaintiffs to be persistent. Our Children’s Trust [ -> ourchildrenstrust.org/ <- is an Oregon-based nonprofit that has spearheaded many of the youth-led lawsuits in the U.S., including the cases in Montana and Hawaiʻi. When their attorney Andrew Well talks about their Alaska case, he clarifies that their current litigation is called Sagoonick v. State of Alaska II."Sagoonick was just 15 when the first lawsuit was filed. Over the past 10 years, climate change in Alaska has accelerated, with the state warming twice as fast as the rest of the country. Permafrost is thawing, salmon are disappearing from the Yukon River, and crabs are missing from the Bering Sea.By the time this next case resolves, the Alaska that she grew up with may not exist."Kaliko: “I want to mainly be advocating for my community,” she said. “I don’t think I can imagine myself doing anything else.” <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TakeCareForEarth</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopBurningThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopBurningThings</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopEcoside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StopEcoside</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateBreakDown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClimateBreakDown</a>
