1/ At COP28 governments agreed to transition away from fossil fuels. Two years later, fossil fuel production is rising & energy transition finance is falling short. Leaders at @COP30 must now turn promises into action.

Tina Bru blir partner i First House - starter Stavanger-kontor
Høyre-nestleder Tina Bru blir First House-partner ved nyopprettet Stavanger-kontor. Men inngående pr-råd til stridende kandidater til verv i partiet hun forlater, vil hun ikke gi.

Tidligere oljeminister og medlem av Stortingets energikomite skal nå lobbe sine tidligere kollegaer, på vegne av oljenæringen.
Snakker om det åpent, som noe helt normalt og legitimt.
Hun er i hvert fall ærlig, men det gjør ikke at dette er bra!

It would be SO interesting to do one of those "what you think everyone else believes" type surveys on fatalism specifically.
I bet people massively over-estimate the amount of 'it's too late', in the same way they also overestimate the amount of 'don't want to do anything on climate'

Mener vindkraft er verre enn motorvei og industri
Vindkraftmotstandere i Grimstad foretrekker både E18 og industriområder fremfor vindkraft. Forsker mener vindturbiner har blitt et symbol på en feilslått energipolitikk.
This article is a really, really stunning example of how wind power is received in Norway.
A proposed wind farm site right next to a massive highway and industrial area is being opposed on the grounds that it 'destroys nature' and is too noisy

AI-tainted Deloitte report was worse than previously thought

Documents released under freedom of information laws show the mistakes in a Deloitte report commissioned by the federal government and tainted by AI hallucinations were much worse than previously disclosed, and included dozens of incorrect references.
Department of Employment and Workplace Relations staff identified 59 potential errors in a “quick review” of the report it reluctantly embarked on after The Australian Financial Review first reported claim
Among the concerns the department wrote to Deloitte about on August 29 was a reference to the Social Security (Administration) Act 1999 (Cth) sections “42UC–42UO”. The department said those sections do not exist.
It called out three footnotes referring to a speech by “Justice Natalie Cujes Perry” titled “Administrative Decision-Making in the 21st Century: Transparency and Review”.
The department said it was “unable to find” the speech and that the citation appeared to conflate a Justice Perry with academic Dr Natalie Cujes. (The final report replaced the citations with those of a speech by Justice Melissa Perry titled “iDecide: the Legal Implications of Automated Decision-Making”.)
The spreadsheet noted the original report cited several government documents that the department was “unable to find” including “Department of Education, Skills and Employment, Targeted Compliance Framework Overview”, and “Department of Social Services, Mutual Obligation Requirements and the Targeted Compliance Framework (Factsheet, 2020)”.
References to these documents were removed in the final report.
There are a wide range of institutions (including several major climate advocacy groups) encouraging "responsible" and "ethical" use of generative chatbots, eg 'checking outputs'
This only worsens the harm: the people most compelled to trust ChatGPT are also the least likely to check.

But one single speech from a Labor MP still somehow hit me hard, despite the knowledge that the party has notoriously bad form on climate. As I read in Tim Hollo’s newsletter, Hunter MP Dan Repacholi gave a short speech on “net zero” in parliament, claiming pretty simply that coal mines would not need to shut down if Australia reaches Labor’s target. I want to highlight a few excerpts, because they accurately geolocate the actual problem.
I don’t know if it’s selective hearing, genuine misunderstanding or just plain ignorance, but, whenever we talk about reducing our emissions, those opposite leave out the most important word in ‘net zero’: ‘net’. Net zero does not mean shutting down industries. Net zero does not mean zero emissions. Net zero is about one thing: offsets. It means we take as much carbon out of the atmosphere as we put in. It is simple and practical, and industries in the Hunter are already doing it.
By my calculations, the emissions released by Australia’s coal exports when burned add up to around 2.8 gigatonnes, since the moment Labor was elected. The total global carbon capture capacity is about 0.005 gigatonnes of carbon capture per year, and only a small fraction of that counts as actual removal from the atmosphere (rather than just skimming a fraction off a bunch being released). There are no operational carbon removal facilities in the Hunter region. Even if you accept the shrugging off of exported emissions as irrelevant, the idea that the Hunter coal mining region is engaging in permanent carbon sequestration for operational emissions is a flat-out fabrication.
Pretending that fossil fuels can be harmless is 100x worse than denying climate science. Not sure I've seen anything that lay it out with such efficient density as this @danrepacholimp.bsky.social speech.
I lay it all out at @crikey.com.au for you -->>

More people have now been killed by Arab militia in Sudan than in the entire two years of the war in Gaza. Women, children, murdered in cold blood. Where are the marchers, where are the chants? Or is this genocide not fashionable enough for you?
Better to ask where are the Presidents and Prime Ministers explaining that the RSF have an absolute right to destroy anyone and anything they want with the full backing of the white people world, because that’s the key thing that’s actually remarkable and grievously consequential.

Here's #EETFuels pushing its gas to hydrogen #Greenwash at a sustainability event. Louise Gittins said "we can't wait for perfect technologies". We can't afford to use the wrong technologies either. The only thing #BlueHydrogen and #CCS are sustaining is the fossil fuel industry.

Absolutely insane.
Labour would have purged and smeared someone like Zohran Mamdani.
Wes Streeting's politics align far more closely with Andrew Cuomo.
The lessons from Mamdani are about how to defeat both the right - and the bankrupt "centre".

EU-landene enige om nytt klimamål
Kranglingen har pågått i månedsvis, men nå er EU kommet til enighet om nye klimamål.
Eksportmarkedet for norsk olje og gass vil kutte ut produktet vårt innen kort tid.
Det er på tide å lage en plan - og så begynne - omstillingen bort fra olje og gass.

EU opprettholder 90% klimakutt innen 2040, med klare begrensninger på importerte klimakvoter (maks 5%, kun etter 2035).
Vedtaket bør fjerne all diskusjon om å svekke våre egne klimamål, som heller bør styrkes for å henge med i omstillingen. Og Norges gassmarked vil forsvinne raskt.

Klimagassene 13 prosent lavere enn i 1990
Utslipp av klimagasser i Norge var på 44,6 millioner tonn CO₂-ekvivalenter i 2024. Det er en nedgang på nærmere 13 prosent fra 1990.
Utslippskutt feires i dag, men viktig med kontekst:
«Fra 2023 til 2024 sank klimagassutslippene 4 prosent. Nedgangen skyldes hovedsakelig elektrifisering av sokkelen og driftsstans på flere industrianlegg, i tillegg til mer biodrivstoff og flere elbiler i veitrafikken» www.ssb.no/natur-og-mil...

Ap-forslag om oljefondet: Vil sette Etikkrådet på sidelinjen
Høyresiden sikrer Arbeiderpartiet flertall for å skrive om reglene for oljefondet. Det får Aps budsjettpartnere til å se rødt.
Ap viser fingeren - ikke bare til sine samarbeidspartnere, men også til mange av sine egne velgere. Helt unødvendig og dypt arrogant. Føles sikkert kult i dag, men er ekstremt skadelig på sikt.

26. konsesjonsrunde i sårbar natur
Både klimahensyn og naturhensyn kan stoppe den 26. runden for oljeleting. Mesteparten av det foreslåtte arealet er «særlig verdifull og sårbar» natur.
Områdene i «26.konsesjonsrunde» er svært miljøsårbare, dyre og ikke særlig viktige for oljeselskapene.
Derfor bør det være lett for Arbeiderpartiet å kansellere denne av hensyn til klima, natur og budsjettpartnerne i Stortinget www.energiogklima.no/meninger-og-...

Spørsmålet bør ikke bare være hvor mye energi KI krever, men hvilken verdi den skaper.
0. KI skaper 0 verdi. Faktisk er verdien av KI netto negativ etter kvart som det øydelegg utdanning, forvalting, kognitiv evne og kreativitet.
