Why is the media coverage of Israel vs Iran so skewed? Why is Israel always presented as the victim, even when it is the aggressor? And what about Israel's actual nukes?

Twee pimpelpaarse schepen vertrekken binnenkort vanuit Noorwegen. Het doel: vloeibare CO2 uit Nederland en Denemarken via een pijpleiding onder de Noordzee pompen, en daar permanent opslaan. Miljarden euro's stromen vanuit de EU en de Noorse overheid naar het project – waaraan ook Shell meedoet.

#CCS: de lichtzinnige gok van het #EU klimaatbeleid

🤔 Carbon Management Strategy: de grootse plannen van de EU uitgelicht
🥳 CCS niet veel meer dan een theoretisch concept op de tekentafel van een ingenieur
🌱 Dit raakt aan de diepgewortelde overtuigingen over hoe de wereld werkt.
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), het afvangen en opslaan van CO2, wordt voorgesteld als een belangrijke stap in het vergroenen van de industrie. Volgens critici belooft de technologie echter veel meer dan die eigenlijk kan geven, terwijl de kosten ervan veel hoger liggen. www.mo.be/analyse/ccs-...

Just your regular reminder of where global CO2 emissions are tracking compared to scenarios that keep warming to below 1.5C in 2100, with "no or low overshoot" (maximum temperature around 1.6C).
