When it comes to the #environment, we need to stop using "band-aid" solutions, and start curing the issue at hand. #Coalpower is still used around the world. Replacing #Coal with clean alternatives like #solar and #nuclear we can stop the "infection" instead of mitigating it #BuyCanadian #Solarpunk

South Africa is taking action to reduce its #climate emissions!

1. Cooperation with a number of Western countries: Support of 8 billion USD in exchange for phasing out #coalpower. 2. Binding emission limits for companies, with strong sanctions if they are violated.

China's #carbon emissions now appear to have reached a plateau and may soon start to decline!

The reasons are record expansion of #solarenergy and #windpower plus reduced demand for #coalpower.

🏞️ Despite #renewables momentum, 94.5 GW of new #coalpower began construction in 2024. Halting new approvals and optimising use of existing assets are essential. A robust #justtransition framework will be key to supporting workers and revitalising coal-dependent regions. 7/x

In India, the expansion of #solarenergy is FAST! 50 % electricity from emission-free sources has been reached five years ahead of schedule.

#Coalpower is moving from being the foundation of the electricity system to a flexible resource that balances solar energy.
