    Syllabus Bank | Climate Solutions Lab
    https://watson.brown.edu/climatesolutionslab/syllabus-bank

    The Climate Solutions Lab syllabus bank fosters and improves university-level courses on climate change in the social sciences. At many universities, such courses are scarce – despite student demand on the world’s most important global problem. For potential instructors, developing a new syllabus from scratch can be a barrier to teaching the course. So, we offer some existing syllabi, for free, to anyone in the world. Different courses have different features, like film documentaries or class simulations.

    WPLC Stands with Water Protector, Jessica Reznicek
    https://mailchi.mp/waterprotectorlegal/wplc-stands-with-water-protector-jessica-reznicek

    On June 30th of this year, Water Protector, Jessica Reznicek, was sentenced to 8 years in prison, 3 years of probation, and 3.2 million dollars in restitution in Iowa for the non-violent actions against the Dakota Access Pipeline in 2017. Her lengthy sentence was due to a domestic terrorism enhancement, originated in the Bush-era Patriot Act and rolled out in the Biden administration to combat domestic terror, which the federal judge overseeing her sentencing decided to apply.

    Judge Rebecca Goodgame Ebinger... concluded that a terrorism sentencing enhancement could apply because Reznicek tried to stop the flow of oil, retaliated for decisions by state and federal governments to approve the project and wanted to prevent the government from approving future projects like the Dakota Access Pipeline. "Not only the flow of oil, but the government's continued response were targets of this action," Goodgame Ebinger said. One of Jessica's attorneys, Bill Quigley said after her sentencing, "Unfortunately, actions to protect our human right to water were found to be less important than the profit and property of corporations which are destroying our land and water."

    Recycled concrete and CO2 from the air are made into a new building material -- ScienceDaily
    https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/10/211007122058.htm

    A new way to reduce emissions levels caused by concrete use has been proposed and proven to work by Professor Ippei Maruyama and C4S (Calcium Carbonate Circulation System for Construction) project manager Professor Takafumi Noguchi, both from the Department of Architecture at the University of Tokyo. They have found a way to take waste concrete and captured carbon dioxide, and combine them in a novel process into a usable form of concrete called calcium carbonate concrete.

    ...

    "Our concept is to acquire calcium from discarded concrete, which is otherwise going to waste," said Maruyama. "We combine this with carbon dioxide from industrial exhaust or even from the air. And we do this at much lower temperatures than those used to extract calcium from limestone at present."

    Why Insulate Britain and XR are Failing to Win Over the Public – Byline Times
    https://bylinetimes.com/2021/09/28/why-insulate-britain-and-xr-are-failing-to-win-over-the-public/

    IB was born out of that frustration and its response was to become more radical still. But Read believes that whilst the general public’s awareness of climate change has moved, partly due to actions from groups like XR, the actions that IB are engaged in don’t have the “positive dimension” that will mobilise the 3.5% of the population that XR had always estimated was needed to galvanise change.

    He tells Byline Times that there is a “grave danger in actions that appear to target ordinary people” which he dubs blunt instruments that have no power to resonate and to change minds. In fact, Read argues that they may in fact be counterproductive and cause a waning in public sympathy, as well as encouraging more repressive police action.

    Read has argued instead for what he calls “Robin Hood actions” by radical groups – such as stealing insulation and installing it in the lofts of social housing residents. He argues as well for more entryism into what he calls “leverage points’, pointing to groups such as Lawyers For Net-Zero. He argues instead for a “mass moderate flank” to put pressure on governments, rather than more radical, smaller groups.

    Parfitt and others engaged in IB actions are pursuing another path – in her case on the grounds of obedience “to a higher authority”. She tells Byline Times that she sees the work she does as resisting “the forces of evil that I see residing in the fossil fuel industry.” IB’s protests are due to gather pace again next week. The debate within the environmental movement – as well as amongst the general public – isn’t going to be over soon.

    TADEAS: ale vždyť ty kamiony stejně nemaj řidiče, tak není ještě trochu overkill blokovat jim dálnice, navíc k tomu? :-)

    hele, já celkově nevím. když se zamýšlím nad možností spekulace s emisníma povolenkama, tak vlastně nevím, jestli to je řešení, které dává smysl. Sice se mělo sáhnout na peníze fosilnímu průmyslu, do té míry, že banky jim nechtějí půjčovat, to chápu. Ale ta věc, že můžu koupit emisní povolenku a se ziskem jí prodat... to si myslím nebude úplně dělat dobrotu... vzpory tu budou, ale ne klimatické... budou tu vzpoury proti emisním povolenkám, obávám se.

    'Thousands are dying': Why Insulate Britain activists say they have no choice but to block motorways | Euronews
    https://www.euronews.com/green/2021/09/24/thousands-are-dying-why-insulate-britain-activists-say-they-have-no-choice-but-to-block-mo

    Insulate Britain’s aim, according to an organisation spokesperson, is simple. Speaking with Euronews Green, they explain that they want the “government to start the most cost-effective means of reducing our carbon emissions, by insulating the nation's housing stock.”

    Insulate Britain’s website explains that the UK’s 29 million homes account for 15 per cent of the country’s emissions. But also that they are “the oldest and least energy-efficient housing stock in Europe.”

    ...

    Not only would implementing insulation changes enable the UK to make good on its promises to meet climate change targets under the Paris Agreement, but Insulate Britain also says it would mean that more than one in 10 families in fuel poverty could heat their homes and cook food.

    ...

    Their tactics, which have been likened to those of Extinction Rebellion (XR), who in the past blocked London transport and landmarks, have faced significant criticism. Ecological philosopher and green activist Rupert Read explains both the public and media reaction has been hugely negative so far, “even more so than with XR.”

    ...

    Climate activists have been blocking sections of the UK’s busiest motorways, as well as the port in Dover.

    Do toho se ještě na trhu i v rámci Green Dealu projevuje takzvané EGS. Znamená to třeba, že banky už nejsou ochotny poskytnout „špinavým“ projektům jakékoli financování. Uhelný byznys do nich samozřejmě patří. Banky už vám tedy vůbec nepůjčí?

    Banky? Tam se dnes cítím jako drogový dealer. Ty už nám nic nedají. Faktem je, že nám dnes ani nevedou účty. Některé menší české banky to dělají, ale většina už ne.

    A jak financujete potřebné investice?

    Jen z vlastních zdrojů. Dnes rekonstrukce uhelných elektráren a jejich ekologické modernizace platíme ze svých peněz.

    Což konkrétně u ČEZu znamená, že to jsou zdroje od daňových poplatníků.

    ČEZ je od svých akcionářů tlačen do toho, aby šel do zelena. Jim nic jiného nezbývá. Sev.en Energy se nyní chystá na splnění přísnějších emisních limitů, což zvládneme, ale stojí to velké peníze. A hlavním problémem je, že vlastně vůbec nevíte, na jak dlouho to děláte. Modernizace jednoho kotle vyjde třeba na 1,5 miliardy korun. A my jich máme devět. To fakt není sranda vše zaplatit.

    Large-scale solar can cool nearby areas – pv magazine International
    https://www.pv-magazine.com/2021/10/06/large-scale-solar-can-cool-nearby-areas/

    Solar facilities were found to produce “cool islands” that extend up to 700 meters from the boundaries of the arrays. Land surface temperature was reduced by up to 2.3 degrees Celsius (3.6 Fahrenheit) at 100 meters away; the cooling effects tapered off exponentially to 700 meters.
    ...
    The study authors concluded the effect could have impact on local ecological processes. Productivity, decomposition, and ultimately the carbon balance could be skewed by the cooling. The scale of effect depends on location, and impacts could range from positive, negative, or inconsequential based on local ecosystems.

    For example, in California’s Mojave Desert, lower surface temperatures leads to reduced germination rates and a loss of biodiversity. But, in the Tibetan Plateau, lower surface temperatures could potentially reduce the amount of methane lost to the atmosphere, said the scientists.
