#mitigation

Governments only look to the next election and not the next generation. They would rather save pennies today and let the net (or the one after that) government deal with the increased costs of mitigation. The word investment is a nasty smell.

A damning report on the preparedness of the UK for the impact of climate change - not least the likely impact on food production.

The Guardian · Labour not protecting people, economy and homes from climate crisis, watchdog saysBy Fiona Harvey
Continued thread

"Modern civilisation has a number of extremely delicate and highly interconnected components whose graceful degradation is effectively impossible."

It is "much easier to break things than to build them up. The government administrations of Britain, France and Germany for example, were set up at a time in the nineteenth century when the rising middle classes demanded a properly functioning state[…]. It took perhaps a generation for professional, neutral public services to fully emerge."

"Forty years of globalised neoliberalism have broken our societies, our economies and our political systems, and we no longer have the ability to put them back together."

Sometimes I get very, very annoyed with my fellow countrymen 🇳🇱 when it comes to solar !
Money seems to be [have been] the primary goal for solar.
Should that goal not have been to contribute to the solution to the #ClimateEmergency.
#Mitigation, the ultimate solution.

"Apr 13, 2025
Rooftop solar PV is THE best way to reduce your household energy bills (alongside good insulation of course!). But the technology is woefully underutilised on a global basis, especially in regions that have the best sunshine, like Africa. Now a new report has crunched some numbers and calculated the climate mitigation potential of all those unused roofs around the world. And it's quite the impact!"

Correlation or Cause?

European State of the Climate report ‘lays bare’ impact of fossil fuels on continent during its hottest 12 months on record

The fossil fuel burners are slowly backing down from science (they established) many years ago, but still cling to the fable that if we keep extracting, the taxes will pay for mitigation. Like fuck.
