November 03, 2021 - The nuclear lobby exercises the Dance trick

Since most of the nuclear lobbyists are already a bit stiff in the hips, it is more reminiscent of a clumsy attack

But it is also difficult to dance to the only hit that the people of yesterday know, the Fehrbelliner Reitermarsch "We want our old nuclear power back ...", to dance to living people in goose-step.

It will look completely different when the professional Rafael Mariano Grossi, head of the world's largest nuclear advancement association IAEA, swings elegantly in a tango step towards the standing desk in Glasgow and, against all better knowledge, explains very eloquently why the fight against the rising temperatures was only won with many atomic ovens can be.

The delegates cling to their wallets and yet know it's too late. The wallet is still there, but cleanly emptied except for some Klimpergeld. There is no longer anything in it for meaningful climate protection measures.

Immediately, immediately

Climate The Glasgow conference is the last chance to contain global warming. How will the global players decide?

Shortly before the world climate summit COP26 in Glasgow, the experts follow suit. One report after the other appears with the same tenor: the window of time that we have to counter an impending climate catastrophe in good time is closing faster and faster. Every “business as usual” will give us an average global warming of more than two degrees in the coming decades, optimistically by 2,7 degrees by the end of the century. There are few die-hard deniers of climate change, but many who know better are stepping on the brakes...

CO2 and nuclear power

No attempt should be made here to clarify the extent to which CO2 contributes to global warming / climate change. It should be documented whether and - if so - how the issue of CO2-Emissions leads to making nuclear power in Germany socially acceptable again ...

Politics

In June 2019, the CDU's Union of Values ​​pleaded for the nuclear phase-out in Germany to be postponed and for the phase-out of coal to be brought forward instead. In this way, the CO2-The exit will be reduced and the climate targets will still be achieved. The head of the Union of Values, Alexander Mitsch, expressed himself accordingly, who called the nuclear phase-out a "costly ecological and economic mistake". The President of the CDU Economic Council, Astrid Hamker, also criticized the nuclear phase-out and named France as a role model, which by sticking to nuclear power would more easily reach the climate targets. The CDU energy expert, Klaus-Peter Willsch, made a similar statement ...

World Climate Conferences (WCC)

A first "world climate conference" under the umbrella of the UN, the First World Climate Conference (WCC-1), took place in Geneva from February 12 to 23, 1979 and was organized by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). Here, experts from United Nations (UN) organizations discussed the possibilities of containing the harmful climate changes caused by humans. The main focus and important result was the warning issued here that the continued concentration on fossil fuels in connection with the progressive destruction of forest stands on earth will “lead to a massive increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration”. In the same year, the world climate program was founded in May (WCP - World Climate Program). It contains recommendations for further observation of climatic phenomena and for targeted climate research in all regions of the world in order to gain further knowledge about the causes of climatic changes. This mainly concerned investigations into the development of the proportion of carbon dioxide and other trace gases, the further observation of the ozone hole and the assessment of the El Niño climate anomaly in the Pacific region ...
