SEC climate rule pause creates path for faster court decision - newsletter.climatenexus (Apr 8) |
|
Apr 8 · The Securities and Exchange Commission’s decision to unilaterally pause the implementation of its climate reporting rules places the agency on a faster track for a decision on the rules’ legality.
The SEC on April 4 told the US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit it would stay the requirements for public companies to report their greenhouse gas emissions and disclose climate-related risks to their business, pending the court’s review.
The climate rules have been a lightening rod, drawing legal challenges from business and conservative interests, as well as 25 Republican attorneys general. Environmental groups have filed their own suits arguing the regulations are too ... Read more ...

There is a way out of the climate crisis – but it is not through COP - newsletter.climatenexus (Dec 19) |

Dec 19 · The world’s top climate summit is a hoax, and it can’t help us.
There have been a total of 28 United Nations Conference of Parties (COP) on the climate crisis to date, but only the last one, convened earlier this month in the United Arab Emirates, has ever mentioned ending fossil fuels in its final agreement.
COP28 secured a commitment from nations to “transition away” from fossil fuels, however, it offered little more than its predecessors in the way of real solutions to the climate crisis. Delegates did not agree to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions enough (43 percent by 2030) to meet the targets set in the Paris Climate Agreement, and wealthy nations did not make ... Read more ...

US should adopt carbon border tax to address climate change - newsletter.climatenexus (Oct 17, 2023) |
|
Oct 17, 2023 · In this week’s column, tax expert Andrew Leahey writes that a carbon border adjustment mechanism would allow the US to keep more revenue generated by carbon offsets and help protect domestic production.
As extreme weather events seem to punctuate the news on a weekly basis, the need to address global climate change continues to grow.
To that end, the EU last month passed a carbon border adjustment mechanism - a border-adjustment tax on carbon. A BAT attempts to tax a good based on where it’s consumed rather than where it’s produced. When applied to carbon, the goal is to offset the incentive for producers to evade a carbon tax in one country by producing goods in ... | By Andrew Leahey Read more ...

Nairobi, Kenya – More than a dozen African leaders and some of the world’s fiercest climate change campaigners are meeting in Kenya for the maiden edition of the Africa Climate Summit.
The event, which is being held from Monday until Friday, has been convened to address Africa’s increasing exposure to climate change and its associated costs on the continent.
Africa, according to the United Nations, accounts for only 2 to 3 percent of the world’s carbon emissions but has been the continent most affected by global warming.

Cage Ranch Solar LLC told the US Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on Tuesday that FERC’s orders violate the Federal Power Act and the Administrative Procedure Act, in addition to being arbitrary, capricious, and an abuse of discretion.

Biden's fossil fuel hypocrisy is betraying the planet - newsletter.climatenexus (Jul 30, 2023) |

Jul 30, 2023 · If the world is to phase out fossil fuels in time to prevent a climate catastrophe, the US president needs to put his money where his mouth is.
Ahead of its Climate Ambition Summit in September, the United Nations is calling on global leaders to phase out fossil fuels. US President Joe Biden is painfully falling behind on this agenda and must urgently get back on track to maintain any credibility in these climate discussions.
As we suffer through extreme heat in the US and across the globe, President Biden has been protecting fossil fuel profits instead of people. From the Willow Project in Alaska to Gulf LNG exports, Biden props up dangerous oil and gas projects and the ... Read more ...

Jul 14, 2023 · Tens of thousands of people evacuated India’s capital territory of Delhi after the monsoons swelled the Yamuna River to record levels, flooding large parts of the city.
The Yamuna, which passes through Delhi, rose to nearly 209 meters on Friday, the highest recorded flood level for the river, according to India’s Central Water Commission. The previous record of 207 meters stood for 45 years until Wednesday as the annual monsoon season brought heavy rainfall to the area.

Jul 06, 2023 · Their unprecedented profits over the past year have shown their unwillingness to adapt. It’s now D-Day for them.
More than most members of the climate community, I have for years held space for the oil and gas industry to finally wake up and stand up to its critical responsibility in history.
I have done so because I was convinced the global economy could not be decarbonised without their constructive participation and I was therefore willing to support the transformation of their business model.

Two nonprofit groups - Climate Protection and Restoration Initiative and Climate Science, Awareness and Solutions - along with several scientists petitioned the EPA in June to use the authority granted by the 2016 Toxic Substances Control Act amendments to conclude that ongoing manufacture, processing, distribution, use, and disposal of chemicals such as methane and carbon dioxide present an “unreasonable risk of injury to health and the environment.”

Could imitating volcanos fix the climate crisis? Science is spilt - newsletter.climatenexus (Feb 28, 2023) |

Feb 28, 2023 · The controversial theory of solar geoengineering is at the centre of a growing body of climate research in Asia and elsewhere.
Taipei, Taiwan – At opposite ends of Southeast Asia, researchers Pornampai Narenpitak and Heri Kuswanto are both working on the same problem: Is it possible to mimic the cooling effects of volcanic eruptions to halt global warming?
Using computer modelling and analysis, Narenpitak and Kuswanto are separately studying whether shooting large quantities of sulphur dioxide into the earth’s stratosphere could have a similar effect on global temperatures as the eruption of Indonesia’s Mount Tambora in 1815.

Despite the apparent contrast, the driving force was the same: record-setting, extreme heat. The summer of 2022 was hot, fueled by human-caused climate change.
Photographs of the season’s defining weather moments tell a story of a superheated atmosphere, wreaking havoc from Kentucky to Korea, Pakistan to Puerto Rico.
