🧵Ora che Sanremo è alle spalle, è utile riassumere le lezioni sconvolgenti (ancorché prevedibili) di questo mese per ricordare che il mondo è cambiato sotto i nostri occhi e familiarizzare con la nuova realtà.

1. La democrazia non è scontata e va difesa.

🧵Oggi è il giorno in cui metabolizziamo il “piano di pace” di Trump, che consiste sostanzialmente nel chiamare Putin, chiedergli cosa vuole, e dargli quello che vuole.

Per chi non lo avesse capito, Trump non sta trattando la pace, ma la resa dell’Ucraina.

The climate talks in Baku 🇦🇿 are officially over!

#COP29 opened with a bulldozing through of dangerous #CarbonMarkets and ended with a bulldozing through of an empty promise of rich countries’ legal obligations to protect #HumanRights & the planet: ciel.org/news/cop29-c...

BREAKING #COP29 FINAL (?) TEXTS

A new package of texts has been published as "draft decisions" – usually means final, but given all we've seen here, who knows

– $300bn finance goal
– "Baku to Belem roadmap to $1.3tn"
– no stocktake progress tracking, just a 2yr chat

A furious India:

COP president:

"I take note of your statement and it will be reflected in the report"

Confusing plenary: 🇦🇿 #COP29 pres pushes an unjust #ClimateFinance decision (blame goes to dvped cntries), gavels adoption, hears objections from India, Nigeria, Cuba, Bolivia & LDCs, notes these comments, then moves on.
See what happened to Bolivia's objection in 2010: a note in a forgotten report

The IEA released its new numbers on energy access today. It's a mixed bag. The good news is that the # of people without electricity has fallen, following a few years of stagnation and setbacks. The bad news is that the rate of improvement is 1/10th what it needs to be. www.iea.org/commentaries...

Energy wages are rising, reflecting increasing competition for skilled workers

While the wage gap between clean energy & fossil fuel jobs is narrowing, oil & gas workers still earn 15% more on average than workers in clean energy sectors

Incredible stat:

A single container ship of solar panels can provide as much electricity as more than 50 large LNG tankers of gas – or 100 large coal ships

There's many more insights in IEA Energy Technology Perspectives 2024 – here's a selection 🧵
