2020 We need to (find a way to) talk about … Eco-anxiety
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/02650533.2020.1844166?journalCode=cjsw20

Eco-anxiety may not be new, but could now be seen as an emergent phenomenon attracting increasing attention as public awareness about the climate and bio-diversity crisis grows. There may also be some generational differences in how we respond emotionally, with children often talking about feelings framed by their experience of adult misunderstanding or inaction.

What often scares children the most is how they see the ‘adult world’ failing to take sufficient urgent action on these threats, whilst at the same time dismissing, criminalising, pathologising and patronising their feelings and voices. Children and young people are increasingly taking centre stage in protests about the need to take urgent action, whilst simultaneously often being the focus of society’s anxieties about the psychological impact of the crises; ‘we mustn’t frighten the children’.

This paper focuses on children and young people’s perspectives; introducing eco-anxiety, drawing on clinical practice examples, research findings and finally offering conceptual frames to help us broaden and deepen our understanding of this evolving syndrome.

TADEAS: budes prednaset? :)

SHEFIK: jj TADEAS

LINKOS: je to pro me naprosto pochopitelny.

TADEAS: ono je taky dost pravděpodobný, že to množství masa co sníme si nebudem ani moci dovolit až ho začnou jist národy co teď bohatnou. Nechápu proč je pro tebe tak nepochopitelný, že jej jíme nejvíce v historii a je to špatně

LINKOS: stejne jako je ma elektrina. mame snizovat spotrebu elektriny, protoze neumime zmenit zpusoby vyroby? hned.

a ne, neodpustim si to, protoze je to fatalne mylny mysleni s tragickejma dusledkama.

LINKOS: prosim jestli chces byt soucasti reseni, nepouzivej formulace ze maso nebo ml. vyrobky jsou nejak narocne. jsou takove nebo makove dle zpusobu produkce (managementu ekosystemu). jsou ruzne zpusoby produkce.

The Rough Road of Rising Up | Stephen Jenkinson & Roger Hallam

What happens when a revolutionary activist meets a spiritual activist to speak about living in the time of the Anthropocene? In this captivating discussion we navigate the topics of truth, integrity, death, hope, and the action required to respond to the urgency of these times. How can we become ancestors worth claiming, and how can we support and mobilise our young people who are fighting for their futures on a dying planet?

“Activism is saturated with the cult of hope… what happens over and over again is…burnout...rooted in this occultic attachment to hope in our culture. We are looking at a new way of thinking in terms of how we should act in this world and how we should act in this revolutionary fashion that we are now called to do given the extremity of evil that we face.” – Roger Hallam

We discuss the weight of what it means to be an adult and our relationship to young people. What do we tell them? What is our responsibility towards our youth and future generations “to come?

“As soon as you demonstrate the capacity to carry weight, you get weighted down. See that’s fate for grown ups. When there’s finally no hope left you try leave a scent in the air of what some people did in a time of trouble. The people to come they’ll need that. They’ll need to know that they came from people who were worthy of coming from. And you don’t hope you’ll be worthy. You get worthy now. That’s what time it is.” – Stephen Jenkinson

“The two main mentors of the 21st century I think are mainly Martin Luther King and Ghandi who more than any other historic figures…in recent history show that fusion between moral purpose and spiritual maturity and how that manifests itself is in civil disobedience.” – Roger Hallam

TADEAS: ten metan by se uvolnil/uvolnoval i na pastve ne?

ja chapu, ze to z tvyho pohledu neni uzavrenej regenerativni cyklus, nicmene dokud budou kravy produkovat metan, tak ani pastva nebude 100% climate-friendly proces

2020: Europe's Energy Transition in 5 Trends | Greentech Media

By the end of 2020, all of Europe’s oil majors had made long-term climate commitments. 

In terms of investments, BP is aiming for $5 billion a year of low-carbon investment by 2030. Equinor expects to invest $11.6 billion just in renewables by 2030. Shell has been loath to put a figure on its plans, but in addition to venturing efforts, the company will co-develop the ~€1.4 billion ($1.71 billion) Hollandse Kust (noord) offshore wind farm and has started early work on a series of major hydrogen projects. These are big numbers, but they don’t by any means eclipse the investments being made by major multinational utilities like Iberdrola. The Spanish utility has committed to increasing its annual renewable investment to $11.8 billion.
In terms of how active the majors might be in the renewables sector, BP has the most ambitious target. Its 50 GW target for 2030 is the same as French utility giant EDF.

#BP provides a blueprint for a net-zero carbon IEC. BP’s target of 50 GW by 2030 is impressive. Spend in clean energies will increase from $0.5 to $5 billion pa. Its ambitious net-zero carbon targets needed a strategy that can deliver. BP leaves its Euro Major peers way behind.
