Today’s Energy Robber Barons How a Renewables-based Grid has Created a New Generation of Green Capitalist Exploitation

The green energy grid is creating opportunities for those with means.
My latest shows how government incentives and market manipulation have turned me into an energy robber baron profiting from price gaps while my neighbours suffer.
#GreenCapitalism at its worst.

Two articles show accelerating global heating and Trump's rejection of climate science.

The pretences of #greencapitalism were only a passing phase. The dominant strategy now is to maintain dogged #climatedenial in the face of an increasingly dreadful reality for as long as possible.

How Carney’s first budget impacts the environment | The Narwhal Prime Minister Mark Carney’s first budget scales back many Trudeau-era environmental programs and creates a youth climate corps

"Prime Minister Mark Carney’s budget scales back rules around greenwashing, and hints an oil and gas emissions cap is unlikely."

Opinion | Biden Left Us With a ‘Prius Economy.’ It’s Time for Something Different. (Gift Article) Climate impacts are fueling the cost-of-living crisis, especially for the poor and working class.

Why I as a #climateactivist was not excited by the #IRAlegislation. Myself and many other #workingclass people have been left out by this type of #climatelegislation. We need a new economy, that meets our basic needs while protecting the environment - not #greencapitalism.

Green capitalism and the electric vehicle Fossil-fuel capital wants to accelerate a transition to private electric cars, but these are by no means a sustainable solution.

The role of the #electricvehicle within the false and destructive agenda of #greencapitalism.

Nissan, Honda announce merger, creating world’s third-largest carmaker Plans, which include Mitsubishi, announced as Japan tries to gain foothold in electric vehicle market.

This merger is driven by the need to compete in the #electricvehicle market with its massive retooling and vast mining projects. #Fossilfuel capitalism threatens our existence but #greencapitalism may finish us off.

What's a unit of nature? And can it be sold in a biodiversity credit market? Scientists question whether these credits can deliver lasting conservation.

#Greencapitalism is fertile ground for scammers.

SWR-Feature zu #Fosen #Windpark #GreenCapitalism Gestern im Energieministerium, dann nochmal im Gericht, heute ein Gespräch mit einer Klimapsychologin und morgen noch eines mit 1 aktivitschen Expertin für #Widerstand gegen #Windturbinen besonders in #Fosen
Und außerdem jede Menge #Sámi Kultur

Making friends in #Oslo
März Recherche für das SWR Feature über #Fosen #Windenergie #GreenCapitalism
Zuerst bemerken wir in Oslo, die Stadt könnte ganz bestimmt mehr Bäume vertragen
Dann hören wir, dass sie fehlen. Man nennt es wohl auch Hartschallraum, laut, grell, für gute Atmo muss du laufen

#Oslo #Fosen #Windkraft #GreenCapitalism

Auf der Recherche zu den Protestaktionen der #Sámi und anderer #Umweltschützer in #Norwegen begegnen wir weitgehend friedlichen Menschen.

Aber nicht alles ist Friede Freude Eierkuchen. Heute waren wir im Haus der Sámi und sahen merkwürdige Friedenstauben

Danach folgt ein Workshop zu Pensionskassen & Klima von Eva Gelinsky und Ueli Gähler von @multi_watch bis dann am Abend zwei Aktivisten*innen aus Mexiko und Kolumbien über den indigenen Widerstand gegen Megaprojekte des #GreenCapitalism berichten. 6/x

#GreenCapitalism requires vast amounts of resources & by turning nature into financial assets, it violates territorial sovereignty in Global South. The excuse: 'Yes, I do all this but it's green & sustainable!'
