Fossil-fuel propaganda is stalling climate action; here's what we can do about it #fossilfuel

Fossil-fuel propaganda is stalling climate action; here's what we can do about it
2025 has been a year of setbacks for Canada's climate policy. In November, the federal and Alberta governments signed a memorandum of understanding to remove strict climate policies in the province and to support the construction of a new pipeline from Alberta to northern British Columbia.

Japan Daily on Instagram: "Abandoned suitcases are becoming a growing issue at Narita Airport, where nearly 900 pieces of luggage have already been collected this fiscal year—about nine times more than four years ago. Police say around 10% of the bags are empty, suggesting intentional disposal, with storage and disposal costs ultimately borne by taxpayers. The problem extends beyond airports to train stations and public spaces, often linked to travelers avoiding disposal fees after shopping. In response, Narita Airport is testing solutions such as clothing compression machines to help travelers save space and avoid buying new luggage. Retailers and repair businesses are also encouraging reuse through free take-back and resale programs, aiming to reduce waste and promote more sustainable travel habits."

Claude 3.7 describes the image as: "This is a black and white close-up portrait showing a person with feathered, shoulder-length hair styled in a 1970s fashion. The image captures an intense, thoughtful expression with the subject gazing slightly upward. The lighting creates a dramatic contrast that emphasizes the facial features and the texture of the hair. The background is blurred but appears to be a simple, dark setting typical of film or television production from that era. The monochrome…

The sculpture consists of stacked concentric metal rings curving upward in a spiral, resembling a futuristic tower. It stands among trees, suggesting a public park or plaza.

Ilford HP5 Plus 400 (FF) English Alt Text: An outdoor urban scene with a striking abstract sculpture as the focal point. The sculpture has a mirrored surface and a geometric design: a pyramid-like top transitions into a fluid, distorted base. It sits on a white pedestal in a landscaped plaza with ornamental grasses and trees. Parked cars line the background street, and a signboard is visible nearby. The sculpture’s reflective surface captures surrounding light and movement, creating a dynami…

Let's face it: Trump's attack on Venezuela is about fossil fuels* once more. Another reason to resume working on the energy transition this coming Monday!
*) Confirmed by Trump himself:

Donald Trump says US is ‘going to run’ Venezuela after overnight strikes – live
US president says ‘we’re going to run the country until a safe, proper and judicious transition’ can take place and that he is ‘prepared’ for a second attack

Very happy to see Trump’s illegal block on wind farm development thrown out by a judge, along with the Orwellian justification given for it—a classic inversion of the truth. Every accusation is a confession, etc. (“The government argued that the states’ claims amount to nothing more than a policy disagreement over preferences for wind versus fossil fuel energy development that is outside the federal court’s jurisdiction.”)

Federal judge throws out Trump order blocking development of wind energy
A federal judge has struck down President Donald Trump’s executive order blocking wind energy projects, saying the effort to halt virtually all leasing of wind farms on federal lands and waters was “arbitrary and capricious” and violates U.S. law. Judge Patti Saris of the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts vacated Trump’s Jan. 20 executive order. Saris ruled in favor of a coalition of state attorneys general from 17 states and Washington, D.C., led by New York's attor…

Comparing the climate and air pollution footprints of Lithium-ion BEVs and ICEs in the US incorporating systemic energy system responses
With rising travel demand and the need to tackle both the air quality and climate change challenges caused by fossil fuel vehicles, there is an urgent need to transition to cleaner and more sustainable fuels. While lithium-ion battery electric vehicles (BEVs) produce no emissions during operation, they increase electricity consumption, affecting emissions from that activity. Furthermore, there is an ongoing debate about the overall cleanliness of lithium-ion batteries when assessing emissions t…
