Vielen Dank für den Hinweis! Mal bitte den Realitätscheck machen:

Wenn #Musk die #Ukraine mit #Starlink erpresst, um die ukrainischen Bodenschätze zu plündern, dann ist das ein Angriff auf ganz #Europa mit seiner US-Abhängigkeit!

Z.B. kann Trump MS, Apple, & Co. anweisen, uns die Stecker zu ziehen, falls wir ihm beim Angriff auf China "von der Fahne gehen"!

Musks Arschigkeit führt uns vor Augen, dass die #EU gefordert ist, ggü. den #USA #Decoupling & #Derisking zu starten!

"Decoupling"? It's possible but extremely unlikely (authors being politic here); "the post-growth field suggests taking a precautionary approach, given the historical record and the rapid narrowing of the window to prevent ecological breakdown. Post-growth, it should be emphasised, does not state that decoupling economic activity from emissions and getting to net zero emissions is impossible, just that it is made harder by economic growth. For energy and material use, which can only be reduced and never brought to zero, the necessary reductions are easier to achieve with post-growth."

Did you ever wonder how to set up a VM dedicated exclusively to dev work, so your computer could remain unaware of node, npm, and any other tool you use regularly?

For the longest time, me too! I'm extremely happy to say that I finally figured it out: soledadpenades.com/posts/2025/

And coming soon... the rest of posts 😌

so energy and the economy are intrinsically linked, and so are, currently, CO2 emissions.

when the economy grows so do emissions. when the economy is doing badly emissions plateau or even decline.

that is why we are talking about "#decoupling" GDP from emissions by using low-emission technology.

some people say there is a problem with this line of thinking, which i'll explain in a second.

Since the 1990s, something 'magical' has been happening. Countries have been successfully decoupling human prosperity from environmental impacts.

WePlaneteer Rob De Schutter discusses what has led to the phenomenon of decoupling and what it means for our future.

Green growth theory posits that we can decouple growth of the real economy - the one that provides goods and services that can lift our standard of living - from growth of energy use, pollution etc. I don't if that's true. But as I pointed out yesterday, financialisation has been pretty good at...

> Decoupling on-paper economic growth from anything that actually lift's our standard or living

So who knows?

Can economic growth be decoupled from emissions? Yes, for sure, easily even.

Can economic growth be decoupled from environmental degradation in general? Absolutely not. The sheer throughput of materials through the economy, from extraction to waste disposal, must decrease. If we address GHG emissions in isolation from topsoil and biodiversity loss, we will fail to preserve the ecosystems on which we depend for life.

When you watch this excellent installment of #60Minutes, it becomes clear that #Xi is ploughing ahead (though unoficially) with "#decoupling" from the West, from the #US above all.

This will hurt #US farmers greatly, as #China is (one of) their most important export market for #agriculture products.
Even the seasoned #US embassador to the #PRC did not foresee this move.

For nearly 200 years, economic #growth and #CarbonEmissions have been closely linked. Mainstream economists advocate for #decoupling, but is that possible?

While some evidence supports decoupling, it's not happening fast enough to meet climate targets.

Alternative proposals include reorienting economies towards human well-being and ecological sustainability, transitioning away from GDP-centric metrics and economic structures.
