Le Citepa vient de publier les estimations d'émissions de GES en 🇫🇷 pour 2025.
Le constat est sans appel : Le retard pris pour la transition écologique, avec les nombreux reculs sur les politiques publiques dans ce domaine depuis 2024, se paie cash, y compris pour le budget des ménages.

Last year China installed more than 7 times more solar capacity than the US. So much for energy dominance...

Why China and Europe should collaborate to ‘defossilize’ the world’s carbon
The world needs non-fossil sources of carbon. It’s a no-brainer for nations working towards this goal to join forces.

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.”

“Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath

Some costs aren’t costs.
One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss
Copenhagen, the bicycle-friendliest place on the planet, publishes a biannual Bicycle Account, and buried in its pages is a rather astonishing fact.

The EU is one of the world’s most fossil-import-dependent economies. In 2023, imports met 58% of its energy demand -near pre-crisis levels - leaving consumers exposed to price shocks. That’s far above China (24%) & India (37%); only Japan (84%) & South Korea (80%) rely more.

A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right.

Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement.

Scientists warn we are edging towards a “point of no return”, where climate tipping points could push us into a hellish “hothouse Earth”. Every fraction of a degree matters. We must urgently cut climate pollution from coal, oil and gas and scale up clean energy.
