New Roadmap Shows How to Cut a Surprisingly Big Source of Emissions
Electricity can replace natural gas to provide the low- and medium-grade heat needed to make food, paper and chemicals.
We have the technologies we need to cut pollution from the industrial sector. In our new report, we take a deep dive into an immediate, practical opportunity: electrifying low- and medium-temperature process heat in manufacturing food, beverage, paper and chemicals. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Nach dem Anschlag in Magdeburg: Das Weihnachten danach
Neonazis und AfD instrumentalisieren die Amokfahrt für Hetze gegen Migrant:innen. Die Stimmung in Magdeburg ist bedrohlich.
Wie bitter: Famita B. hatte im Uniklinikum #Magdeburg Verletzte des Anschlags versorgt, jetzt landete die Intensivschwester nach einem rassistischen Angriff selbst in der Notaufnahme. Sie ist offenbar nur eine von vielen Betroffenen in der Stadt:

Two people (the mayor of Lima and the director of CalTrain) sitting at a table, signing an agreement, with two people (Peruvian transportation minister and US Secretary of State) standing behind them, with a diesel-electric locomotive covered in US flags in the background.
