Ruští hasiči už celé dny svádějí boj s rozsáhlými lesními požáry na Sibiři. Nejhůře oheň zasáhl Jakutsko, kde hustý dým mimo jiné zastavil i provoz na letišti. S hašením více než tří set požárů přitom pomáhají právě letadla. A spolu s nimi tisíce lidí na zemi. Požáry se na východě Ruska pravidelně opakují, rok od roku jsou však horší.

Zajimavy info o rustu vetsiny atolu (pres rust hladin oceanu)...

"You can still see an island grow at a time when most people and most models would suggest they should be eroding," said the study's co-author Murray Ford, an expert in Pacific reef island systems from Auckland University.
Ford and Paul Kench, from Simon Fraser University in Canada, compared the island's land mass in aerial photos from 1943 and 2015. They also radiocarbon-dated sediment deposited on the island to find out when the coral remnants were alive, and discovered that sediment on parts of the island had been deposited after 1950, suggesting the island's growth is relatively new.
At the same time, global sea levels have been rising. Satellite data shows waters around the Marshall Islands have risen about 7 millimeters (0.3 inches) each year since 1993, according to a Pacific Climate Change Science country report. That's more than the global average of 2.8 to 3.6 millimeters (0.11 to 0.14 inches) per year.

TUHO: Fatih Birol, executive director of the IEA, slammed what he characterized as the hypocrisy of rich governments that promised a green recovery from the pandemic but have thus far refused "to put their money where their mouth is." Research published last month revealed that between January 2020 and March 2021, the governments of wealthy G7 nations poured tens of billions of dollars more into fossil fuels than renewable energy.

tak z postcovid recovery se stava dalsi promarnena prilezitost a spektakularni manifestace kolektivni demence.

The International Energy Agency warned Tuesday that global carbon dioxide emissions are on track to soar to record levels in 2023—and continue rising thereafter—as governments fail to make adequate investments in green energy and end their dedication to planet-warming fossil fuels.
In a new report, IEA estimates that of the $16 trillion world governments have spent to prop up their economies during the coronavirus crisis, just 2% of that total has gone toward clean energy development.

KEB: Transformací myslíš výstavbu nabíjecích stanic a posílení rozvodné soustavy a výroby elektřiny? Lusknutím prstů samozřejmě ne, ale ten vývoj by měl jít rovnoměrně s rozvojem elektromobility. A to jak na straně provozovatelů nabíjecích stanic (stimulem ze strany státu), tak i na straně státu. Pokud stát (a nadstátní organizace - EU apod.) udělá A, tedy podporuje elektromobilitu a hází klacky pod nohy výrobcům aut se spalovacími motory, tak musí udělat i B, tedy podporovat nabíjení.

Deep crisis: Deep adaptation… | Polity – Blog
https://politybooks.com/deep-crisis-deep-adaptation/

https://www.wiley.com/en-cz/Deep+Adaptation%3A+Navigating+the+Realities+of+Climate+Chaos-p-9781509546855

As we begin to emerge from a dark period of history dominated by the devastating Covid pandemic, many of us are therefore taking this opportunity to reassess things we previously took for granted: What parts of society really matters? How important is stuff? Love? Life itself? How should we work? How can we respond to future challenges? It is due to this new moment of reflection and re-consideration that I don’t think there could have been a more fitting time to release Deep Adaptation: Navigating the Realities of Climate Chaos, the new book I have co-authored with the originator of the deep adaptation concept, Jem Bendell. This will be the first book on the controversial subject of Deep Adaptation, and will advance from Bendell’s 2018 article “Deep Adaptation: A Map for Navigating Climate Tragedy” which has been downloaded more than a million times.

Deep adaptation is an emerging philosophical and social movement that is concerned with how to prepare ourselves to minimise the damage of the potential (and increasingly likely) social, political, and environmental collapse the future threatens us with. As I see it, it by no means constitutes us giving up on trying preventing these calamities, but it is a reasonable and necessary philosophical and practical exercise to undergo when we are honest with ourselves about the pretty desperate situation we are in.

2021 is a critical year in the future of the human race, and one that we are now almost halfway through. If the post-Covid ‘reset’ is not green, if it does not seriously confront the challenges and take swift measures to curtail the worst of pollution, emissions, and environmental destruction, then we accelerate toward collapse. With this in mind, how do we begin to talk to each other, reorganise communities, and learn to live under the shadow of the all-too-realistic possibility of societal collapse? This is quickly becoming one of the most important questions to ask, and humanity must come up with an answer. The conversation that our book attempts to spark is one that will deal with these issues head-on.

Deep Adaptation is a growing school of thought, and the idea of adaptation is creeping steadily up the international agenda (it is a headline item at the autumn’s COP, for the first time ever). Despite this, it is still being taken nowhere near as seriously as ‘mitigation’/prevention. Why?: because once we start talking about or even doing adaptation, we can no longer deny how bad the situation is. And that is what most people are still uncomfortable doing. This failure to engage seriously with adaptation, let alone deep adaptation, risks being a form of tacit/soft climate-denial in action.

Let me be frank: It’s time to prepare for the worst. But that is because, if we don’t prepare for the worst, we could get burnt the worst. I’m not giving up on the fight to stop our society undermining its own future existence, far from it! On the contrary, when I contemplate the likelihood of collapse, and the need therefore for deep adaptation, it makes me all the more determined to try to stop collapse, even if the chances of succeeding in doing so seem slim. But: not being willing to be honest enough to contemplate it isn’t going to help us.

...

This book is systems-thinking for our time. It opens up a space for a debate that has been avoided for too long. We hope deeply that you will take up the invitation it offers.

2021 Green Moral Hazards

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/21550085.2021.1940449

Moral hazards are ubiquitous. Green ones typically involve technological fixes: Environmentalists often see ‘technofixes’ as morally fraught because they absolve actors from taking more difficult steps toward systemic solutions. Carbon removal and especially solar geoengineering are only the latest example of such technologies. We here explore green moral hazards throughout American history. We argue that dismissing (solar) geoengineering on moral hazard grounds is often unproductive. Instead, especially those vehemently opposed to the technology should use it as an opportunity to expand the attention paid to the underlying environmental problem in the first place, actively invoking its opposite: ‘inverse moral hazards’.

Blow for CCS: Chevron's giant carbon capture project falling short of targets
https://www.upstreamonline.com/energy-transition/blow-for-ccs-chevrons-giant-carbon-capture-project-falling-short-of-targets/2-1-1041696

US supermajor Chevron has failed to meet its emission reduction targets at its Gorgon liquefied natural gas project in Western Australia after a troubled start to the carbon capture and storage (CCS) facility.

Chevron confirmed on Monday that it was not going to meet its promised injection rates, with the project only capturing a fraction of the carbon dioxide expected during its first five years of operation.

...

“It’s a shocking failure of one of the world’s largest engineering projects. But, given the lack of rigour and testing around the technology that was used, I cannot say it is unexpected,” chairperson of Sustainable Energy Now, WA, Ian Porter said.

“Chevron needs to face significant fines and be forced to offset the more than 6 million tonnes of unauthorised legacy carbon dioxide releases. Gorgon’s failure poses a major problem for any oil and gas company betting on CCS to meet net zero.”

Porter added that he believed oil and gas companies were being “overly optimistic” in their assumptions for the potential success of CCS in order to argue for the expansion of oil and gas extraction.

“CCS simply does not work at the scale and at the price needed to undo the damage that will be created by these projects,” he claimed.

“I sincerely hope CCS does work one day. Ultimately, we need it. But until that time, it is reckless and disingenuous for the industry to keep pretending that it can expand operations and reach net zero.”

Tracking sustainable recoveries – Sustainable Recovery Tracker – Analysis - IEA
https://www.iea.org/reports/sustainable-recovery-tracker/tracking-sustainable-recoveries

Objem emisí skleníkových plynů dosáhne v roce 2023 opět na dosavadní maximum a poté bude dál narůstat, odhaduje v nejnovější zprávě Mezinárodní agentura pro energii (IEA). Důvodem je zotavování ekonomik po koronavirové krizi a to, že státy investovaly do čisté energie pouze dvě procenta pandemické pomoci.

Loni se kvůli protiepidemickým opatřením snížila globální produkce oxidu uhličitého související s energií na 31,4 miliardy tun. Letos to však podle nejnovější studie IEA vypadá na druhý nejvyšší meziroční nárůst produkce v historii, kvůli ekonomickému zotavování. Emise vzrostou i napřesrok a v roce 2023 pak překonají dosavadní rekord z roku 2018, odhaduje agentura.

Ani tam se však podle ní nárůst nezastaví a v následujících letech bude pokračovat, což významně ohrozí snahu o uhlíkovou neutralitu v roce 2050, k níž se hlásí drtivá většina států. Prohlášení vlád z celého světa, že po pandemii bude budoucnost „čistější”, tak podle šéfa IEA Fatiha Birola zůstala pouze u slibů.
