Insult and slander are part of the panoply of far-right propaganda, as is the harassment of people and the suffocation of their words by flooding. Here it is incessant.
The slander targets both contributors to this forum, that the defamation of the cited scientists when they do not blow in the desired direction.

The subjects of this forum are not ecology or health, but their instrumentalisation by some activists against the governments in place. The more the elections approach, the more we see these virulent bigots against Macron and against those here too moderate in relation to the power in place.
Are these hidden bigots fans of Marine Le Pen or Florian Philippot, the future will undoubtedly tell.

I do not know if the extreme right has drowned this forum or if it emanates from the editorial line, but this extreme right is starting to be heavy.

Considering the time he spends trying to piss off the ruling power, this last quote seems like a half-word admission that he is an infamous fascist who thinks he is telling the truth. But have we ever seen the truth coming from the fascists ?!

Australia affirms its desire to continue mining coal for export

AFP published on Sep 09, 2021

Australia will continue to extract coal for export amid rising demand, Prime Minister Scott Morrison said on Thursday, rejecting a study calling for leaving 95% of the country's resources untapped to slow global warming .

According to this study, published this week in the journal Nature, 89% of the world's coal resources and 95% of Australian coal must be sanctuarized to have a 50% chance of meeting the goal of limiting global warming to 1,5 ° C. compared to the levels of the pre-industrial period.

The Prime Minister has estimated that Australia's energy resources are necessary for developing countries and he wants to believe that eventually the technology will allow coal to be burned "in a much more climate-friendly way". "We will continue to extract the resources that we can sell in the global market," added Mr. Morrison. "We of course anticipate that the global demand for these things may change over time," he said.

The recent fires, drought and cyclones of rare intensity that have hit the country are, according to scientists, made worse by climate change. Defenders of the environment assure that inaction on this issue could cost the country's economy billions of euros. But Australia has refused to set a zero carbon target and remains one of the world's largest fossil fuel exporters.

Coal exports brought in 50 billion Australian dollars (31 billion euros) in one year and the industry represents 50 direct jobs, underlined the Australian Minister for Resources, Keith Pitt. They are the country's second export product after iron ore. "The reality is that global demand for Australian coal is increasing and should continue to increase in the next ten years at least", assured the minister in a statement, promising employees of the sector a "long-term commitment "from the government.

Leaders from 196 countries will meet from October 31 to November 12 in Glasgow (Scotland) for the World Climate Conference (COP26). This meeting, the most important since the Paris conference in 2015, is seen as a decisive step in setting targets to slow climate change.

China remains heavily dependent on coal

Posted on: 23/09/2021 RFI

Beijing will stop funding the construction of coal-fired power plants abroad. This is what Chinese President Xi Jinping said before the United Nations General Assembly. An announcement that is far from signifying the end of coal in China, the country is still the first consumer and is struggling to get rid of this very polluting fossil material.

Coal provides energy security for China. This fossil material is abundant and cheap to fuel the Chinese industrial machine, which is running at full speed in a context of strong economic recovery. And to meet its energy needs, the Middle Kingdom commissioned new coal-fired power stations and even reopened closed mines.

Another reason explains the dependence on coal: clean energies, such as solar or wind power, are mainly installed in the west of the country. While the most economically dynamic regions are in the east. Problem: China lacks high-voltage lines to deliver green electricity to these more energy-intensive regions. Significant investments are also planned to remedy this imbalance.

Carbon neutrality difficult to achieve
The carbon market in China is another obstacle to getting rid of coal. Launched last July, it sets pollution ceilings for businesses. But its price, considered very low, does not encourage manufacturers to reduce carbon emissions and invest in innovative technologies.

Employment is another factor pushing Chinese authorities to turn to coal. Mine closures have lost jobs to nearly 2 million of the 6 million miners in the sector, according to a study by the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. The authorities therefore do not wish to question social stability in the name of the energy transition.

In this context, Beijing's commitment to carbon neutrality before 2060 seems a very difficult goal to achieve.

Portugal is closing its last active coal plant.

The 628-MW Pego power station was shut down on Nov. 20, 10 days ahead of schedule, marking the end of coal-fired power generation in Portugal. The country joins Belgium, Austria, and Sweden, as the fourth European nation to discontinue the use of coal.

The one you want, I don't want to impose anything on you.
You type "Pego power plant", then you click on "news", you will have only the choice, with the photo which you like.
