    :: OSEL.CZ :: - Důkazy přibývají: Byli to lidé, kdo zlikvidoval megafaunu
    https://www.osel.cz/13545-dukazy-pribyvaji-byli-to-lide-kdo-zlikvidoval-megafaunu.html

    Odborníci dánského výzkumného centra ECONOVO (Center for Ecological Dynamics in a Novel Biosphere) při Aarhus University důkladně analyzovali dostupná data napříč mnoha obory a dospěli k závěru, že mnoho zmizelých druhů megafauny opravdu snědli tehdejší lidé. Do studie zahrnuli časové osy vymírání druhů megafauny, ekologii dotyčných druhů, genetické odhady velikosti jejich populací, doklady o lovu, historii klimatu i vegetace za poslední miliony let, evoluci a dynamiku populací fauny od konce období křídy, tedy za posledních 66 milionů let a doklady o šíření lidských populací i o jejich životním stylu, plus další faktory.

    Nejprve uznali, že klimatické houpačky během nejmladšího glaciálu a po jeho konci nepochybně ovlivnily populace megafauny. Klidně je možné, že některé fatálně. Jedním dechem ale dodávají, že analýzy předešlých glaciálů a interglaciálů, kdy docházelo k neméně dramatickým klimatickým změnám, v žádném případě neukazují selektivní vymírání druhů megafauny, jako před 50 tisíci let. Jistě, vymíralo se, vymírá se pořád. Ale dřív vymíraly druhy velké i malé. To je zásadní rozdíl.

    SHEFIK: Renewable energy is the only answer for long-term security. The UK has hundreds of small businesses producing innovative renewable technology that can provide our energy needs. What’s been holding them back is an inconsistent and uncertain investment environment. This is particularly relevant for decarbonising heat. It’s responsible for about 37 percent of total UK carbon emissions, yet is consistently forgotten about in the rush to electrify everything. The next Government would be wise not to neglect it - we can’t reach net zero without renewable heat."

    Labour Party wins UK General Election with promising implications for the UK green economy
    https://www.renewableenergymagazine.com/panorama/labour-party-wins-uk-general-election-with-20240705

    The result has promising implications for the UK green economy with Labour’s intention to make Britain a ‘green energy superpower’. This includes promises to double onshore wind, treble solar power and quadruple offshore wind by 2030. The party is hoping to rid the national grid of fossil fuel generation entirely by that time.

    Climate protest accused defies judge to give hours-long speech in court | UK news | The Guardian
    https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jul/02/climate-protest-accused-defies-judge-to-give-hours-long-speech-in-court

    A climate protester ignored a judge’s instructions and refused to leave the witness box, instead delivering an hours-long speech telling jurors that his alleged role in a conspiracy to block the M25 was justified by the risk of human extinction.

    Roger Hallam, 58, spoke for more than two hours on why a judge was wrong to rule that he and co-defendants could not bring evidence in their defence on the impacts of climate breakdown, and why such evidence justified the sort of acts of which they are accused.

    The judge Christopher Hehir sent out the jury three times during Hallam’s extended address and interrupted Hallam many times to make clear it was not his place to instruct jurors on points of law.

    But Hehir eventually let Hallam continue, to the defendant’s apparent surprise. “I apologise to you if I’m a little bit incoherent,” Hallam told jurors towards the end of his address. “I didn’t actually expect that I was going to get this far.”

    "An exceptionally dangerous situation is expected to unfold over the next week as we enter a potentially historic and deadly heat event...an event of this scale, magnitude, and longevity will likely rival anything we've seen in the last 18 years."

    TADEAS:

    Savory Institute


    Denmark recently became the first country in the world to put a tax on livestock emissions. The tax will go into effect in 2030, and after a 60% tax break is applied, farmers will end up paying 120 krone ($17) per tonne of CO2-equivalent coming from their livestock, which will eventually rise to 300 krone ($43) per tonne in 2035.

    This move comes on the heels of other measures the Danish government has implemented in recent years to reduce emissions and meet climate goals and, given that agriculture is one of Denmark’s largest sources of emissions — with pork and dairy being their largest industries — this is an opportunity to make some headway towards those goals.

    We at Savory are particularly disappointed in this tax given that our new Savory Foundation — which focuses on funding large-scale grassland regeneration projects around the world — is based in Denmark, but more than that, we have serious concerns with regards to how this new tax makes no effort to incentivize a transition towards carbon-sequestering forms of regenerative grazing.

    Yes, our global agricultural system is massively flawed and contributes significant amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, but this is a blanket tax on ALL forms of livestock management that makes no differentiation between land-degrading carbon-emitting forms of production or land-regenerating carbon-sequestering forms of livestock production.

    If Denmark really wanted to incentivize a transition towards a more sustainable livestock industry — which we agree is needed — they could create a sliding scale for this tax so that regenerative farmers who are improving soil health and sequestering carbon aren’t penalized. This could be accomplished either through soil samples analyzed in a lab — even though that would be costly to producers so ideally would be subsidized by the government — or modeling based on the latest research of what’s possible, not just average emissions of the typical producer which is the basis for this tax.

    Still, even if we were to expand the conversation from just emissions to one that also includes drawdown, the focus on greenhouse gases is a reductionist view that misses the forest for the trees. The climate crisis is intrinsically tied to our global loss of biodiversity, our broken water cycles that amplify droughts and flooding, and our impoverished soils, rural communities, food systems, and everything in between.

    At the intersection of all these issues is ecosystem function, so why do we only ever hear about carbon? The global narrative surrounding climate change would be best served by a shift towards restoring ecosystem function. Imagine an alternate world where Denmark's new tax was one that took a more holistic look at ecosystem function — assessing not just carbon but also biodiversity and water-holding capacity — and rather than penalizing everyone involved it paid farmers who demonstrated positive improvements to their ecosystem processes?
