#carbonemissions

I love Taylor Swift. But pls no one's an "ethical billionaire" 😭

Being put under scrutiny is only right because this is what we should do to OTHER BILLIONAIRES too.

We tend to forget, when a person has that kind of money, their entire financial environment is now TOTALLY different from us. One example would be getting a tax-writeoff through philantrophy to protect their profits. (e.g. Bill Gates)

Tax-writeoffs may vary from millions to billions of dollars.

Same thing with her carbon emissions, It's only right to talk about that. Especially at the time when the earth is at its tipping point.

Because discussions like these, reveal the truth behind our beloved artists which can go beyond just the music industry—trickling down to other billionaires like Elon Musk too.

Yes, Taylor's a good person. I personally believe that too. But that doesn't mean she's exempted from critics.

This is the time that we need to be watchdogs not just to her, but all the other billionaires as well.

I support the new clean auto rules! And I oppose defunding climate policies!

316 so far! Help us get to 500 signers!

I am thrilled that the U.S. finalized strong climate change rule for cars yesterday. These rules will force automakers to ramp up electric vehicle sales and slash emissions from gas-powered models. The rule also would reduce fine particulate matter — the most risky form of pollution to our health. Only seven countries met global guidelines for it last year. The fact that the U.S. is leading the world on climate action is great news!

I know that fossil fuel companies are likely to challenge this rule. I want you to stand with the Biden administration and fight back. We are in a climate emergency and we are losing. We need to do much, much more to avoid the worst consequences of a warming planet. This strong rule is a needed next step. I expect Congress to back it and do even more.

As for the Republicans’ trying to defund President Biden’s green tax credits? Absolutely unacceptable. I consider it an outrage that GOP lawmakers are putting oil and gas companies’ profits above our children’s futures. They need to stop right now. Thanks.

Africa's Plans?

First, what is Nett Carbon Zero?

There is an internationally decided upon goal called Nett Zero Carbon. That means that by 2050, the world's countries have agreed to and signed agreements that state that by the year 2050, the country would have reduced carbon emissions by putting measures in place like using #CleanGreen power sources, like solar panels, power generated from wind turbines or hydro-electricity. But feasibly even using electricity and the carbon by-products of making electricity add to the carbon emissions of a country. To ve a consumer of our #CleanGreen power sources, we need to mine materials, manufacture them and produce devices which leaves a carbon footprint.

Offsetting this carbon footprint is a methodology whereby, paying a levy, which is utilized to plant trees, to offset a company or country's carbon footprint. So, emitting greenhouse gases and rubbing the carbon emissions damage, by erasing it all out again with offset measures is not Nett Zero. But it's an excellent place to start until Climate Strategizers have had a chance to make studies, publish findings and assert suggestions to our National Government's Yay!sayers.

So, Nett Zero Carbon dictates that when carbon emissions can't be helped, we plant trees to offset those carbon emissions.

U.K., Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Germany and a few other European countries have signed. I am hoping to start a concern which will change the power source portfolio of African countries. We will sign. And we will meet our targets but as usual, we have been doing things irregularly in an African way. And that's ok.

Euro ways, steeped in archaic laws passed amid a 1600's type mindset, doesn't work for us and they have been established with our oppression as the mode of operandii - power inequity is unacceptable and needs to change today. The ANC, God Bless Them! are really not too concerned about the complaining, spoilt, white-people-problems of the suburbs. National Government works their bums off getting Township something to eat for the day. And can't rebuild a shattered and downtrodden society alone. Not that it's their responsibility anyway. But they do. RDP houses was all guvvie could afford this year. Next year we are going to get our dreams-come-true gated biometric access control estate with cattle kraals and a Sangoma sanctuary for herbs, goats and space to work, a Resource Learning Centre, a soccerfield and a footlit path from shebeen to khaya. For example. With full consultation and votes and samples to decide between and crazy cool times. That include the khaya dweller and their desires and tastes and not just putu pap and no nyama or sauce. Fields of morog everywhere and a chicken slaughterer a few houses away. A cherished ideal and not a put-away disappointment because we put on a brave face and faced hell alone.

African Sovereigns and chieftains and Struggle royalty needed to FIRST be consulted, a presentation delivered to them and for them to have opportunities for q&a, input and to be able to draw a line in the sand with their decision that will be upheld.

Under the ice lies vast stores of organic carbon and methane, created by the slow decomposition of ancient vegetation and marine life. Now, climate change is starting to shift the conditions that have held methane deposits for millions of years.

For context: all the cattle and other domestic animals around the world produce an estimated 0.08 gigatons of methane annually.

Shower heads can use up to 17 liters of water (about 4.5 gallons) each MINUTE!

To make showers more eco-friendly, take shorter (five minutes!) or colder showers when possible.
