Fossil fuels are the primary reason we continue to be in this mess.
I’m 100% certain the rise of the extreme right is fuelled by the oil and gas industry. Hell, the extreme political islam has been pushed by Saudi Arabia for decades. We’ve been paying for our own downfall.
Vance was placed there with the objective to replace Trump eventually. These guys don't need Trump any more, but like the industrials underestimated Hitler when they put him into power, Thiel and co are probably underestimating Trump's shrewdness. He will burn everything down before he'll be put out of power.
Nice to see a large employer like SAP throwing their weight around. I’m a little surprised that it’ll take until 2030 as in the Netherlands many corps already have a policy in place mandating EV only company cars only, from 2024 onwards. Technically one could take a diesel or petrol car, but in practice this would be cost prohibitive.
Kudos for the BMW i3 in the clip. (owner my self of the coolest BMW ever)
Sadly enough, this will become the new normal. We, as a society, really need to look at the role oil and gas companies are playing and stop talking with them.
They are the problem, not part of any solution.
It's actually insane how the oil and gas industry has hijacked the climate conferences and is controlling the narrative.
CO2 capture, hydrogen and a whole array of 'solutions' which are nothing but a distraction from the core issue; this is a criminal enterprise that's a full-blown threat to humanity.
Great, more power at unrealistic prices in… 2045.
It's probably better for the climate and the environment to grill veggies on a gas or coal-fired grill than to grill meat on an electric grill.
The law doesn't apply anymore. Who's going to enforce it?
Economy is something else than the stockmarket. In fact, I'd say the two have absolutely nothing in common anymore. The stockmarket is a casino, with Joe Average losing everything once in a while.
I guess we need to find a word to capture the atrocities that are being done to people of a certain belief system in the world.
Or should be just call it 'g3n0c1d3'?
For decades Republicans wanted to 'starve the beast', and they are now close to actually succeeding. It'll be interesting once the dimmed bulbs in the red stats discover that their life style was basically possible by government policies transferring wealth from the blue coastal states to their backward ass states.
The signs you need to look for is what happens next. Sure, they knew the optics would be really bad if the police had started slaying into 300/500K people. But tomorrow or next week it’ll only be a few hundred. Or just individuals that wear a rainbow item. Will they ‘disappear’ such as is now happening with darker skinned people in the US?
