War: You'll live bad, but good news is that it won't be long life

    Wind and solar power could meet around 85 percent of US electricity needs, according to a paper published in Nature Communications. Batteries, capacity overbuilding and other storage options could increase that figure.

    A blend of wind and solar power should be enough to meet most of the current energy needs in "advanced, industrialized nations," according to the study. Researchers from the University of California, Irvine (UCI), China’s Tsinghua University, the Carnegie Institution for Science and Caltech looked at 39 years of hourly energy demand data from 42 countries to determine whether there's enough wind and solar resources to meet requirements.

    This "science" guys are totally nuts as they write stuff that is requested from them according to the grant they got.

    • 1st small issue. They casually write about 12 hour accumulation, but such thing will cost much more than any sun and wind generation and no one know how to make even this.
    • 2nd small issue. 12 hours is tiny. As in case of long cloudy days and sudden absent of strong wind you can have WEEKS where generation will be from 1 to 10% of normal values. Manufacturing can't work with such unstable power also.
    • 3rd big issues. They view electricity as something autonomous. But this guys also plan to move all cars to electricity and also close of lot of coal supply to manufacturing, so they will need 4-5x times of current electricity demand. And all construction that is already from fairy tales goes to burst mode.

    On Saturday, the participating countries formally reached agreement at the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, ending the two-week global conference.

    The agreement calls on countries to increase their climate change ambitions by strengthening the pursuit of climate targets. In particular, the agreement requires that by 2030, global carbon dioxide emissions are reduced by 45% compared to 2010 levels.

    It'll be miserable life.

    Germany plans to phase out coal use by 2030, eight years earlier than previously planned, as part of its latest climate pledge. That same year, the country wants 80 percent of its electricity to come from renewable sources. Per the BBC, Olaf Scholz, the leader of Germany’s Social Democratic Party, announced the plan on Wednesday as part of a deal that will see the former vice-chancellor govern the country at the head of a three-party coalition made up of the Greens and Free Democrats.

    People in Germany are already suffering a lot, may companies closed, but this morons keep their hard work.

    The Swiss Credit Suisse calculated how a European would have to live with a "developed green agenda" in order to meet the initial emission of 2.9 tons of CO2 per person per year (the norm established by the Paris Agreement):

    Hygiene and nutrition:

    • shower 3 times a week or less, no more than 8 minutes each;
    • machine wash 2 times a week, 1 hour each, using 40 degrees or below water;
    • cheap chicken 2 times a week, less than 100 grams (10.4 kg per year);
    • cheese only once a week 25 grams or below (1.3 kg per year);
    • coffee is fully prohibited as source of too much CO2.

    Sports and entertainment:

    • classes on a treadmill in the cheap gym - 3 times a week, 30 minutes each;
    • watching mass media on TV or reading big sites on Internet - every day, for 2 hours;
    • computer / video games are prohibited (?)

    Buying clothes:

    • 2 pairs of jeans
    • No more than 3 cheap shirts annually.

    Trips:

    • 1 air flight annually without back ticket, in economy class;
    • 5000 km of annual travel by electric transport.
    • travel on gasoline cars will be considered as slaughter

    According to a pact of projects published by the future government of Germany, formed by the coalition of Social Democrats (SPD), the Union 90 / Greens and Liberals (Free Democratic Party, FDP) party, the country has committed to stop selling new cars with internal combustion engines by the end of this decade and to achieve the appearance on the roads of at least 15 million electric vehicles.

    This guys lead country to genocide.

    Apple, Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Netflix, Tesla, Paypal, and Salesforce are among the companies that filed a brief yesterday asking the Supreme Court to uphold the agency’s authority to regulate the pollution causing climate change.

    “Both corporate action and EPA regulation are needed to reduce emissions at the rate necessary to avoid the worst impacts of climate change,” the brief says. The companies say they are “united in their efforts to combat this threat.”

    This guys want big population reduction.
