And your just on a sub that only wants one-sided views. Not everything is uplifting and not every article on this sub is true

It will work as a bonus for everyone with ICE in winters as you can install special heating elements (simplest ones are basically heated oil rod) as they keep the car engine warm and toasty.
Which means less wear, faster start, and less idling, which is already good for the environment, even if they can't/won't switch to EV or hybrids

It's sad that the US is so addicted to oil that they're behind.

You are right, it is getting better. But i still dont understand what is the target energy mix in Germany. What will be thé drivable electricity source ? A 100% renewable 24/7 is not possible right ? So what will replace gaz / coal ?

> The result means that transgender individuals can legally change their gender by self-declaration alone, without having to undergo a lengthy medical process — including a psychiatric assessment — as under the previous law.
>The changes will also see the abolition of a requirement that transgender people must be unable to reproduce.
>Under Finland's previous law, transgender people were required to provide a medical certificate proving they are sterile, in order to legally confirm their true gender.

We could donate funds for a few seats to the tune of thousands and write it off and send them to a preseason game. But this is better marketing.

Reply to Indigenous communities with legal rights to their lands can further protect forests | Study looks at forest trends in Brazil in indigenous communities lands by chrisdh79
From the article: Indigenous communities hold rights to more than half of the world’s land, but only a measly 10% is officially recognized and protected. Despite their persistent struggle for justice, political will has been lacking in many countries. According to a new study, we should all care about this struggle.
A team of researchers showed that indigenous communities are good stewards of nature and whenever they are given the right to manage land, they tend to make it better for the natural environment.
Researchers at the University of Colorado, Boulder have found that indigenous communities in Brazil’s Atlantic Forest who have formal recognition of their land rights reduce deforestation and increase forest cover. This supports previous studies suggesting that land rights can mitigate climate change and reduce biodiversity loss and suggests that granting native populations stewardship could be an important tool for environmental protection.
“Our study adds an important piece to the growing body of evidence that tenure in Indigenous lands has often improved forest outcomes—including now in the Atlantic Forest, which has experienced high deforestation pressures over a long period of time,” Rayna Benzeev, lead author of the study and researcher, said in a statement.

Yes:
>To prepare for winter, the EU imported 51 per cent more thermal coal last year, at 65 million tonnes, up from 43 million tonnes in 2021. Russian coal imports were banned last August, resulting in an even larger pickup in coal imports from other countries such as Indonesia and Australia, which rose from a small base to 6 million tonnes each. The panic buying turned out to be unnecessary. Two-thirds of the extra coal imported by the EU remained unused.
>
>During winter, 26 coal units across seven countries (most of which were in Germany) were reactivated to provide a safety cushion, which in the end was not needed. These units added less than 1 per cent to the EU’s coal power generation.

renewable energy is cheaper to produce so the free market will lead to lower costs for everyone unless the free market isn't actually free because companies are conspiring against consumers to siphon off their money. well, good luck

We still spend a huge amount on renewable energy. And the thing in Germany is more complex than "coal mining for energy". Coal is on it's way to dissappear in the "near" future, at least in Europe.

As the lead scientist noted in the article, 99% of genomes are "turned off" and there is so much more to discover now that we understand how to turn them on .
We really are just in the first innings of breakthrough discoveries that I believe will benefit all humanity
