But those claims are false../\..Americans will suffer the consequences in higher electric bills.<br>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."</p><p>"Key members of the Trump administration have disparaged clean energy as a wasteful distraction while praising fossil gas and coal."</p><p>“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.”</p><p>"...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."</p><p>"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."</p><p>"Why clean power is cheaper power<br>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."</p><p>"Over the past decade, solar and wind power have become the cheapest source of new electricity generation across the majority of the world,..."</p><p>"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."</p><p>"That lack of fuel cost, along with lower operations and maintenance costs, make wind and solar a long-run winner financially."</p><p>"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."</p><p>"An ​‘energy emergency’ — false claims versus real solutions<br>... 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."</p><p>"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."</p><p>"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."</p><p>"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."</p><p>"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."<br>"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,"</p><p>"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.”</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TakeCareForLife</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TakeCareForEarth</span></a> <br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopBurningThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopBurningThings</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopEcoside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopEcoside</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopThePlunder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopThePlunder</span></a><br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateBreakDown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateBreakDown</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopRapingNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopRapingNature</span></a></p>

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."<br>Support our work: -&gt; democracynow.org/donate/donate/sm-desc-yt &lt;-</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TakeCareForLife</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TakeCareForEarth</span></a> <br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopBurningThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopBurningThings</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopEcoside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopEcoside</span></a> <br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateBreakDown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateBreakDown</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/RapeOfNature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RapeOfNature</span></a></p>

The Volgoneft tankers were carrying 9.2 thousand tons of fuel oil, as reported to TASS by emergency services. Officials said that one crew member died, but a rescue operation was able to evacuate the remaining sailors.<br>The 136-metre Volgoneft-212 tanker, carrying a crew of 13 and a cargo of fuel oil, snapped in half and had its bow torn away. The second Russian-flagged ship, the 132-metre Volgoneft-239, with a crew of 14 people, was drifting after sustaining damage, the Emergencies Ministry said. Both vessels were damaged while transiting the Kerch Strait waterway. The ministry cited "bad weather in the Kerch Strait" for the damage.<br>The Kerch Strait separates the Russian-occupied Crimean Peninsula from Russia and is an important global shipping route, providing passage from the Sea of Azov to the Black Sea. It has also been a key point of conflict between Russia and Ukraine after Moscow annexed the peninsula from Ukraine in 2014. In 2016, Moscow was taken to the Permanent Court of Arbitration by Ukraine, where it accused Russia of trying to illegally seize control of the area. In 2021, Russia closed the strait for several months. Apart from being a key route for exports of Russian grain, Kerch Strait is also used for exports of crude oil, fuel oil and liquefied natural gas. <br>In 2007, another oil tanker - Volgoneft-139 - split in half during a storm while anchored off the Kerch Strait, leading to more than 1,000 tonnes of oil spillage. According to Natalia Gozak, director of the Ukrainian office of Greenpeace, the effects of the 2007 spillage lasted for years, negatively impacting biodiversity and marine life. She fears the effects of this latest disaster could be just as bad, if not worse. <br>Commentators pointed out that the oil products, if spilled into the Black Sea, would cause serious ecological damage to a marine environment already badly affected by war.<br>While there haven’t been details on the extent of the spill or why the first tanker had sustained such serious damage, the ministry said that rescue teams were in contact with the ship. Russia said that more than 50 people and equipment, including Mi-8 helicopters and rescue tugboats, had been deployed to the area."</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TakeCareForLife</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/TakeCareForEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TakeCareForEarth</span></a> <br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopBurningThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopBurningThings</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/StopEcoside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StopEcoside</span></a> <br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateBreakDown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateBreakDown</span></a></p>
