Im Vergleich zum Vorjahresquartal sinken die #CO2-Emissionen in China um knapp 5 Prozent. Und das trotz eines Wachstums der Stromnachfrage um 2,5 Prozent.
Der fast ausschließliche Ausbau mit erneuerbaren Energien macht sich nun in China bemerkbar.
Mit diesem Effizienzzuwachs setzt China einen wichtigen Meilenstein.

Chinas CO2-Emissionen sinken erstmals trotz höherem Verbrauch
Chinas CO2-Emissionen sinken erstmals trotz wachsender Stromnachfrage - dank Wind, Sonne und Atomkraftwerken. Trotzdem ist fraglich, ob China die Pariser Klimaziele erreichen kann.Jan Schneider (ZDFheute)
One simple metric of inequality in the UK:
in 1980 the ration of median FTSE100 CEO pay to median UK wages was: £1 - £11;
In 2022 it had become £1 - £118.
I think it's safe to say that is not commensurate with the improvement in the conduct & success of the top management of UK corporations; nor, should it be said, a fall in the contribution to the UK economy of the work of the general population.
The rentiers (as we know) have stolen our wages.

The image features a close-up of a young brown lamb with a soft, fluffy coat, standing in a field. The lamb's ears are floppy, and it has a gentle expression, looking directly at the camera. The background shows a gradient sky transitioning from purple to pink, suggesting either sunrise or sunset. In the distance, other animals, possibly cows, are visible grazing in the field. The text "Your joy and rage can coexist" is overlaid at the top of the image in white, bold letters.
