Wie der Staat Klimasünder begünstigt Ausgerechnet klimaschädliche Industrien werden weniger zu Klimaschutz angehalten als andere Unternehmen. Ein neues Buch deckt auf. Der Ausstoss von Treibhausgasen soll einen Preis haben. Das verspricht das Emissionshandelssystem, das die Schweiz 2008 eingeführt hat. Die Menge an CO2, die jährlich ausgestossen werden darf, wird staatlich vorgegeben. Und sie...
increases gradually. The last Merkel federal government introduced it in order to achieve greater cost accuracy in transport. The surcharge is currently 45 euros per ton of greenhouse gas emitted. A new study financed by the Federal Ministry of Research now shows that the subsidies paid for transport, such as diesel or company car privileges, have the effect of this...
But climate goals have been clearly missed. This will not have any direct political consequences because the federal government has adapted the Climate Protection Act accordingly. By 2030, greenhouse gas emissions in Germany are expected to fall by 65 percent compared to 1990. This is what it says in the Climate Protection Act. Germany should become climate neutral by 2045, meaning it will no longer emit any CO2. How much the country...

is a global problem. This applies to its causes as well as its consequences. For generations, companies, states and citizens around the world have contributed to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere rising far too quickly. The planet is warming.

Methods for binding CO₂. Storage of carbon dioxide is particularly difficult at room temperature because it is then a gas. America is therefore investing a lot in research into storing greenhouse gases underground in deep caves or rock layers. In this context, a team from the Sanford Underground Research Facility in the USA has now discovered microbes that emit CO₂ gas in...
From four new studies, I would say that the risk is significantly greater. However, there are certain consequences of global warming. For example, that it will continue as long as we emit greenhouse gases, that there will be more extreme weather events or that sea levels will rise. This is all secured. At the tipping point of the North Atlantic circulation, however, we are talking about a risk...

Gas to make it suitable for transportation is incredibly energy intensive and creates even more emissions. If approved, the CP2 terminal would emit 20 times more greenhouse gas emissions than the controversial Willow oil drilling project in Alaska. The more than 20 additional LNG export facilities planned on the US Gulf Coast would total more each year...
As a population, we respond to the climate crisis only slowly or not at all: This is not least due to psychological barriers: what inhibits us and how we get going. Record levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, depressing forecasts of global warming and ever new reports of heat waves, droughts and extreme weather events: climate change has been looming for some time now...

Exaggeration of the topic, combined with striking craftsmanship errors. Climate policy is not voodoo. On the contrary, it is almost trivial how one can reduce greenhouse gas emissions in an economy. The state has three levers for this. Firstly, it can subsidize, i.e. subsidize the conversion of factories, infrastructure, the car fleet and houses with a lot of money. It costs...
which is then supposed to be stored in geological reservoirs, is theoretically safe there for many hundreds of thousands of years.

This is not a wonder. The USA, for example, is now the largest oil producer in the world and at the same time the largest oil consumer.
