    Ochrana klimatu musí být součástí plánu pro zotavení evropské ekonomiky, shodují se premiéři EU – EURACTIV.cz
    https://euractiv.cz/...si-byt-soucasti-planu-pro-zotaveni-evropske-ekonomiky-shoduji-se-premieri-eu/

    Ochrana klimatu a digitalizace evropské ekonomiky jsou mezi šesti hlavními prioritami Evropské komise pod vedením Ursuly von der Leyenové. Přestože koronavirová krize zásadně ovlivnila práci unijních institucí, podle premiérů a prezidentů členských zemí by Unie neměla na své původní plány zapomínat.

    Vyplývá to ze čtvrtečních závěrů videosummitu Evropské rady. Šéfové vlád ve společném prohlášení uvedli, že boj proti koronaviru a jeho bezprostředním následkům je naléhavý, EU by však měla začít připravovat opatření, která umožní „návrat do normálu“. Opatření by podle nich měla zajistit udržitelný růst a zohlednit „aspekty ekologické a digitální transformace“.

    Antarctica: what it means when the coldest place on Earth records an unprecedented heatwave | World news | The Guardian
    https://www.theguardian.com/...ans-when-the-coldest-place-on-earth-records-an-unprecedented-heatwave

    This summer, Casey Research Station, in the Windmill Islands oasis, experienced its first recorded heatwave. For three days, minimum temperatures exceeded zero and daily maximums were all above 7.5C. On 24 January, its highest maximum of 9.2C was recorded, almost 7C above Casey’s 30-year mean for the month.

    The arrival of warm, moist air during this weather event brought rain to Davis Research Station in the normally frigid, ice-free desert of the Vestfold Hills. The warm conditions triggered extensive meltwater pools and surface streams on local glaciers. These, together with melting snowbanks, contributed to high-flowing rivers and flooding lakes.

    By February, most heat was concentrated in the Antarctic Peninsula at the northernmost part of the continent. A new Antarctic maximum temperature of 18.4C was recorded on 6 February at Argentina’s Esperanza research station on the peninsula – almost 1C above the previous record. Three days later this was eclipsed when 20.75C was reported at Brazil’s Marambio station, on Seymour Island east of the peninsula.

    Ledovce tají rychleji, než se čekalo. Velký korálový útes opět masivně vymírá - Radek Kubala

    Klimatičtí výzkumníci zároveň upozorňují, že současné restrikce zavedené vládami v důsledku pandemie ztěžují pokračování výzkumu dopadů klimatické krize. Kvůli šíření nemoci Covid-19 se ruší konference a vědci nemohou studovat v terénu.

    Například jen výše zmíněný grónský ledovec navštíví ročně tisícovka vědců, kteří zkoumají jeho proměny. Ruší se i výzkumné cesty do Arktidy a omezit se musela i největší výzkumná polární expedice MOSAiC, na které se podílí vědci z dvaceti států. Vědci upozorňují, že pokud budou restrikce pokračovat ještě několik měsíců, tak ztratíme cenná data o vývoji nárůstu hladiny oceánů.

    „Nejistota v rychlosti nárůstu hladiny oceánů může být potenciálně velmi nebezpečná, protože nebudeme schopní varovat vlády a ostrovní státy, jak rychle se mají připravit na hrozící krizi,“ uvedla pro Inside Climate News dánská paleoklimatoložka Dorthe Dahl-Jensenová. Právě její dlouho připravovaná expedice nazvaná EastGRIP měla prokázat, jak mořské proudy ovlivňují rychlost tání. Kvůli restriktivním opatřením musela být prozatím zrušena.

    Vědci se také obávají, že současná krize zastíní dopady změn klimatu. Na konci letošního roku se má ve skotském Glasgow konat klimatická konference, která má opět patřit k těm důležitějším. Státy by totiž na ní měly přinést nové závazky ke snižování emisí skleníkových plynů.

    For those that thought the #COVID19 lockdowns would effect CO₂ concentrations, well, last week CO₂ had a big spike!

    CO₂ is still being emitted, at a slightly lower rate, so CO₂ concentrations will continue to grow (with variability superimposed).

    TADEAS: No, na tohle jsem zvedavej. Ty spekulace kolem zadluzenosti frackovaciho byznysu jsou uz nejakej patek, ale zatim se mu podarilo ustat i dost velky cenovy soky. Na druhou stranu, kdyby shale industry padl, tak to (jeste v dnesni situaci) bude slusny domino, pro ktery by asi byla 2008 krize takovy maly cviceni...

    The real catalyst of the shale revolution was the 2008 financial crisis and the era of unprecedentedly low interest rates it ushered in,” he wrote in a recent report. Another investor put it this way: “If companies were forced to live within the cash flow they produce, US oil would not be a factor in the rest of the world, and would have grown at a quarter to half the rate that it has.”
    Worries about the financial fragility of the fracking revolution have simmered for some time. John Hempton, who runs the Australia-based hedge fund Bronte Capital, recalls having debates with his partner as the boom was just getting going. “The oil and gas are real,” his partner would say. “Yes,” Hempton would respond, “but the economics don’t work.”
    Thus far, the fracking industry has been more resilient than anyone would have dreamed. But questions about the sustainability of the boom are no longer limited to a small set of skeptics. Those doubts now extend to the boardrooms of some big investors, as well as to the executive suites of at least a few of the fracking companies themselves. The fracking boom has been fuelled mostly by overheated investment capital, not by cash flow.

    US crude oil price falls below $20
    https://www.ft.com/content/bc938195-82d3-43eb-b031-740028451382

    Analysts have calculated that the US oil industry, which expanded in the last decade to make America the world's top oil producer, could contract as much as 2.5m b/d by the end of 2021, from around 13m b/d of crude output now.

    The world already has too much oil. But now it’s running out of room to store it.
    As the oil sector faces down decimated demand resulting from the coronavirus as well as the oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia, which has unleashed still more oil, prices have plunged more than 50% from their recent high in late February. That price drop now threatens untold numbers of jobs, and even the financial fate of whole companies and regions reliant on revenue from the sector.

    In a warming climate, more diseases are likely to emerge and spread, making climate change action an important part of addressing future health crises. Moreover, the perception that climate change isn’t as urgent as other crises may rely on misunderstandings about how climate-related changes will happen. The rate isn’t constant: Instead, there’s reason to believe everything from Arctic melt to Amazon deforestation might experience what’s known as “tipping points,” where small changes in nature shift into rapid and irreversible damage.

    Revealed: Monsanto predicted crop system would damage US farms | US news | The Guardian
    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/mar/30/monsanto-crop-system-damage-us-farms-documents

    The US agriculture giant Monsanto and the German chemical giant BASF were aware for years that their plan to introduce a new agricultural seed and chemical system would probably lead to damage on many US farms, internal documents seen by the Guardian show. Risks were downplayed even while they planned how to profit off farmers who would buy Monsanto’s new seeds just to avoid damage, according to documents unearthed during a recent successful $265m lawsuit brought against both firms by a Missouri farmer.
    The documents, some of which date back more than a decade, also reveal how Monsanto opposed some third-party product testing in order to curtail the generation of data that might have worried regulators. And in some of the internal BASF emails, employees appear to joke about sharing “voodoo science” and hoping to stay “out of jail”.

    hm, zajmavej nazor, cet sem i z jiejch zdroju, ze alternativni energeticky projekty muzou ze soucasny situace tezit, ze 2 duvodu:

    1) cena ropy je tak nizka, ze navratnost novejch projektu je srovnatelna s alternativama, nebo dokonce i zaporna

    2) vykyvy ceny ropy (nezavisle na cene) samy o sobe zpusobuji nejistotu v ziskovosti projektu, tedy schopnosti splacet pujcky/naklady techto projektu. diky tomu pak banky radi tyhle projekty do rizikovejsi kategorie, kterou bud nechteji financovat, nebo navysuji adekvatne uroky... coz ma zas dopad na ziskovost

    sem zvedavej. treba nakonec nedojde k takovymu utlumu

    Rare ozone hole opens over Arctic — and it’s big
    https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-00904-w

    Cold temperatures and a strong polar vortex allowed chemicals to gnaw away at the protective ozone layer in the north.

    A vast ozone hole — likely the biggest on record in the north — has opened in the skies above the Arctic. It rivals the better-known Antarctic ozone hole that forms in the southern hemisphere each year.

    Record-low ozone levels currently stretch across much of the central Arctic, covering an area about three times the size of Greenland (see ‘Arctic opening’). The hole doesn’t threaten people’s health, and will probably break apart in the coming weeks. But it is an extraordinary atmospheric phenomenon that will go down in the record books.

    “From my point of view, this is the first time you can speak about a real ozone hole in the Arctic,” says Martin Dameris, an atmospheric scientist at the German Aerospace Center in Oberpfaffenhofen.

    What does climate change have to do with the coronavirus?
    Climate change is not increasing the geographic range of COVID-19. And the novel virus did not come from the permafrost or the soil, like other infectious diseases that climate change is spreading.
    So where did it come from? How is it spreading? And what's the connection to climate change?
