Greenpeace

France is the first European country to ban fossil fuel advertising. The ban, which comes into effect next year, could see companies fined up to €100,000 for breaching the rules.

It may seem a strong move for a country to ban an entire category of advertising, but it’s odd that we’ve been happy to see advertising for fossil fuels for so long. Fossil fuels are proven to do wide-ranging harm to the planet and our health. Plans for their continued production will fuel a catastrophic climate future that nobody wants. The world’s governments are pursuing climate goals that necessitate a rapid reduction in fossil fuels.

Dobry den, diky za clanek. Prectu si jej rad, i kdyz slovni spojeni “odbornost” v souvislosti s de facto komunistickym platkem a2larm, je spise usmevna. Tito autori jsou zpravidla zurivymi ideology, ale opravdu nerozumi vubec nicemu.

Presto dekuji, clanek si prectu.

Impacts of poverty alleviation on national and global carbon emissions | Nature Sustainability
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41893-021-00842-z

On the basis of global expenditure data, we compute country- and expenditure-specific per capita carbon footprints with unprecedented details. We show that they can reach several hundred tons of CO2 per year, while the majority of people living below poverty lines have yearly carbon footprints of less than 1 tCO2. Reaching targets under United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 1, lifting more than one billion people out of poverty, leads to only small relative increases in global carbon emissions of 1.6–2.1% or less. Nevertheless, carbon emissions in low- and lower-middle-income countries in sub-Saharan Africa can more than double as an effect of poverty alleviation. To ensure global progress on poverty alleviation without overshooting climate targets, high-emitting countries need to reduce their emissions substantially.

On sacrifice | openDemocracy
https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/oureconomy/sacrifice/

Obediently, each day, we build the emissions altar higher. Upon this altar, almost unseen and unheard, countless creatures, ecosystems and species have already been sacrificed by our fevered dream of growth-based holiness. Today, someone’s child will be on it, torn from their parent’s arms by floods and storms. Tomorrow, yet another child, a bit closer, will succumb to heat or air pollution. After-tomorrow, it will certainly be mine, or yours. At our current rate of building this altar, it will devour all around it. At four degrees and more of warming, an unimaginable level we are on track to reach by the end of this century, human civilization itself will be consumed.

100 million people face famine or displacement in 2022 due to climate & ecological crimes against humanity and nature in all but name as rich countries increase military budgets while breaking promises to spend money on protecting people & species

...

50 million on the brink of famine with 100s of millions more in danger.

This Extinction Economy cannot protect people and species. It's the root cause of ecosystem collapse, species extinction, biodiversity annihilation, biome disruption and climate chaos.

33 million people displaced in Pakistan.

Climate chaos during industrial capitalism will get worse before it gets worse.

The scientific consensus: political and economic systems change actions are required immediately

...

4 million displaced in Yemen, a country facing unmanageable climate change within decades.

Reuters reported the US, France, & the UK were potentially guilty of war crimes for their direct roles in the war in Yemen. This has never been followed up afaik.


...

Millions displaced in India, China, and elsewhere.

Wars and conflicts around the globe - climate and ecological crimes against humanity and nature in all but name - have displaced vast numbers.
