MARSHUS: biden: ""This is likely to be one of the largest tornado outbreaks in our history," Biden said. "It's a tragedy. It's a tragedy. And we still don't know how many lives are lost and the full extent of the damage. I want to emphasize what I told all the governors, the federal government will do everything, everything it can possibly do to help."

I’m applying to be Director of Greenpeace.

Several people have told me I should apply for this position (half jokingly). And so I thought well it’s worth 1 hour of my time to knock together a blurb. Apparently it’s past the deadline but that sort of thing never put me off. So this is what I have just sent off to them

Application to become Director of Greenpeace

“in this role you’ll be part of setting the global agenda for change, and outlining the path to a sustainable and ethical human future.” (from your promotional text)

The situation

As you and I know 1.5C is locked in and all official scenarios point to us going over 2C. 2C as Johan Rockstrom has said that means feedbacks taking us to 3C which will take us to 4 and 5 and human extinction. Billions of deaths in the next 2-3 generations according to the world's top scientists. Sir David King gives us 3-4 years to turn this around. There is no alternative other than civil resistance.

About me

I am arguably Britain’s top campaigner.

I did 5 years of award winning research at King’s College on the design of effective campaigning. My supervisor told me I was his best ever PhD candidate.

I conducted the shortest successful fossil fuel divestment campaign in the world: £10,000 of criminal damage and a 14 day hunger strike turned around the college’s policy in 4 weeks.

I took a leading part in designing the famous Deliveroo workers campaigns for the IWGB – the leader of the union calling my work “absolutely fantastic”

I designed the mobilisation plan for London first rent strike in several decades in 2016

I designed the initial plan and led the mobilisation process for the most successful act of mass civil disobedience in modern UK history: the XR rebellion of April 2019 when 1200 people were arrested in 10 days in central London.

I designed the plan for the fastest recognised campaign in modern UK history: Insulate Britain which went from zero to 77% name recognition in four weeks. This was achieved with around 100 people and hardly any money.

I have worked 70 hours a week advising campaigners, activists and rebels around the world for the past 5 years helping to design and initiate dozens of campaigns.

I have been working for 40 years effectively every week on persuading people to do stuff and getting things to happen.

I have been arrested 50 odd times and been to prison six times.

I walk my talk.

This is what I would do at Greenpeace.

I would do the same as one of your top strategists advised. He was honest enough in a meeting I attended with John Sauven to admit that the strategy of Greenpeace is “managed defeat” (yes he did say it John). Later he told me privately that the alternative would be to “drive Greenpeace into the state” – that is, they would turn around the pile of shit we face or not exist in two year’s time. That is what I would do.

How?

I would spend 2-3 weeks speaking to everyone in the organisation to get the lay of the land

Then I would call a big meeting and tell everyone we are going for your strategist’s option 2 (obviously.... this is Greenpeace after all – what would the founders have done in this situation).

I would give the government a three month ultimatum to enact significant decarbonisation measures. In the meantime I would put everyone on the mobilising tens of thousands of Greenpeace members to enter into civil resistance in alliance with other rebellion networks – to block the centre of cites and fossil fuel infrastructure every day on a shift system for weeks or months until the demands were met. If we didn’t get enough sign ups I would go on hunger strike until there was (this is the end of the world after all).

I would require all staff to get out from behind their desks and go on the road holding thousands of meetings – in public places, in people homes, on line to sign them up. I would bring together activists and campaigners from lots of networks to work and learn from each other. Everyone will love it.

I would cut everyone's wages in half (unless there were special circumstances) and give the money to working class young activists to work full time on getting thousands of youth on the go. I would not take any money and give the 90 grand wage to help these people as well.

When we were successful I would get it replicated around the world.

Then I would resign and go back to doing my farm.

If you do not take me on to do this, myself and others will speak to Greenpeace people anyway and organise an alliance of the willing to get on with the job – as this plan is going ahead. But it would be more handy to be Director.

Needless to say only by enacting this plan in 2022 will there be any chance of a “sustainable and ethical human future”. Anything less is “managed defeat” as you all know – not least your strategists.

So let me get on with the job. I know my stuff, and I will get it sorted.

There must be some kind of way outta here

There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief

So let us stop talkin' falsely now

Zemědělci nesou na svých bedrech sociální smír. Bavme se o skutečné ceně levných potravin, říká analytik Uhnák – A2larm
https://a2larm.cz/2021/12/tomas-uhnak-je-potreba-se-politicky-zabyvat-otazkou-co-chceme-jist/

Na Alarmu v těchto týdnech vychází série analytických článku s názvem Zničující import, která se zabývá dovozem potravin. Její autor analytik potravinových systémů Tomáš Uhnák se v ní věnuje českému podílu na destrukci ekosystémů a rurálních společností v některých zemích Latinské Ameriky. Často totiž mluvíme o neetickém pěstování plodin, vykořisťování domorodých zemědělců nebo o kácení deštných pralesů, ale jen málokdy dospějeme k tomu, že se na těchto negativních jevech svou spotřebou podílíme víceméně všichni při běžném nákupu v českém supermarketu.

K růstu ceny emisních povolenek přispívá zdražování plynu, kvůli kterému je pro elektrárenské společnosti ekonomičtější využívat uhlí. Produkce elektřiny z uhlí vytváří dvojnásobné množství emisí oxidu uhličitého než produkce z plynu, takže vyžaduje více emisních povolenek.

Cena emisních povolenek vystoupila na rekordních více než 90 eur za tunu - Ekolist.cz

Poláci chtějí skoncovat s prodejem emisí. Podpoříme to, říká český ministr - Seznam Zprávy

„Sejm vyjádřil podporu iniciativě polské vlády předložit na nadcházejícím zasedání Evropského parlamentu návrh na okamžité pozastavení systému EU pro obchodování s emisemi, nebo na vyloučení Polska ze systému, dokud nebude systém reformován,“ píše se ve čtvrtečním usnesení dolní komory polského parlamentu.

O systému už dříve vyjádřil pochybnosti i český premiér Andrej Babiš nebo ministr průmyslu Karel Havlíček. „Podpoříme každý návrh, který půjde tímto směrem,“ uvedl vicepremiér končícího kabinetu Havlíček pro Seznam Zprávy.

„O polském návrhu víme, revize systému evropských povolenek se právě diskutuje v rámci jednání (o legislativním balíčku) FiT for 55. Česká republika jako jedna z nejpostiženějších zemí důrazně upozorňuje na nepredikovatelný růst ceny emisních povolenek a růst cen energii. Polský navrh je sice radikální, víme, že nemá oporu v legislativě a bude težké hledat podporu v EU, ale současná velmi dramatická situace na evropském energetickém trhu jasně dokazuje, že systém obchodování s emisními povolenkami potřebuje zásadní a hlavně rychlou změnu. V pondělí na tiskovce dáme detailnější vyjádření a nastíníme další kroky,“ dodává Havlíček.

The article rightly says it takes millennia for the earth to fully adjust to CO2 changes BUT what experts often don't tell us is that half the warming occurs in just 50 years.

James Hansen thinks around 75% of the eventual equilibrium temperature is reached over the first 100 years, although the range of possibility goes up to 90%.

Taky zajimave

Zajímavá úvaha. pokud se technická civilizace z nějakého důvodu úplně položí tak její následovník už nebude mít možnost zopakovat překotnou industriální revoluci protože všechno co se dá jednoduše vytěžit a spálit už jsme jednoduše vytěžili a spálili takže jim to tak rychle nepůjde

takze jupi..?

Let's chose a "Biosphere regeneration" diet, not a "Climatarian" diet! - Thorsten Arnold's Homepage
https://thorstenarnold.com/lets-chose-a-pro-biosphere-diet/

I pledge to all listeners that we don’t vilify farm animals per se as culprits of environmental destruction. Instead, we need to take a close look at HOW we farm, and foster those production systems that revitalize natural cycles. We need to find systems that convert the full potential of solar energy while fostering biodiversity. We need faith in nature and in our human ingenuity to find symbiotic farming methods. Yes, I know that we could do this here in Ontario! And we need to find financial mechanisms that allow more regenerative farming such that we transform our landscapes: in the short run, that is less profitable than industrial farming. But it brings mostly positive externalities for our society. Today, short-sighted rent seeking behaviour mainly pushes financial investment into farmland re-zoning for urban development, which uses industrial farming as short-term “bridging activity” that saves property taxes while speculators are waiting for rezoning. We need to reverse this trend. Large-scale biosphere regeneration would buy humankind the time that we need to overcome our addiction to fossil fuels, with technological and lifestyle transitions.

This seems unlikely to you today? Imagine the year 2005: we could have dismissed “electric cars” because “the typical car” has a large environmental footprint – and electric cars are still cars, right? Well, electric cars are not “typical” cars – just like regenerative livestock is not “average” livestock and has a different environmental footprint. Back in 2005, electric vehicles was a negligible market segment, like ecological farming in Ontario is today. Within only 15 years, electric car and bike technology is maturing and at the verge of becoming mainstream! I am confident that we can produce more food on less land, in ways that heal our landscape and build climate resilience and sequester carbon. Based on our daily observation on our own farm, and globally emerging research in landscape regeneration.

But we need urban support. We cannot do this with a “climatarian diet” that is based on national average impact measurements of commodity foods. Such diet would just convert more wilderness into carbon monocultures. We need to go deeper, care more, sharpen our senses, and choose a “biosphere regeneration diet” – foods that grew by strengthening nature’s cycles. And we need to address speculative land purchases for re-zoning, which push land into cash cropping as interim stream for moderate profits and tax savings. We need strong allies from the urban population
