Food becoming more calorific but less nutritious due to rising carbon dioxide (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Researchers noticed 'dramatic' changes in nutrients in crops, including drop in zinc and rise in leadMore carbon dioxide in the environment is making food more calorific but less nutritious – and also potentially more toxic, a study has found.Sterre ter Haar, a lecturer at Leiden University in the Netherlands, and other researchers at the institution created a method to compare multiple studies on plants' responses to increased CO2 levels. The results, she said, were a shock: although crop yields increase, they become less nutrient-dense. While zinc levels in particular drop, lead levels increase. Continue reading......

2025′s AI boom caused huge CO2 emissions and use of water, research finds (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Study's author says society not tech companies paying for environmental impact of AI and asks if this is fairThe AI boom has caused as much carbon dioxide to be released into the atmosphere in 2025 as emitted by the whole of New York City, it has been claimed.The global environmental impact of the rapidly spreading technology has been estimated in research published on Wednesday which also found that AI-related water use now exceeds the entirety of global bottled-water demand. Continue reading......

How climate breakdown is putting the world′s food in peril - in maps and charts (The Guardian)
|
|
|
From floods to droughts, erratic weather patterns are affecting food security, with crop yields projected to fall if changes are not madeExperts have warned that the world's ability to feed itself is under threat from the “chaos” of extreme weather caused by climate change.Crop yields have increased enormously over the past few decades. But early warning signs have arrived as crop yield rates flatline, prompting warnings of efficiency hitting its limits and the impacts of climate change taking effect. Continue reading......

Where Did Global Warming Go? US East Sees Snowiest Start In Nearly Two Decades
The so-called "climate crisis" narrative was built on a house of cards and has been unraveling ever since Bill Gates acknowledged the risks were overstated, and a major study long used to project climate catastrophe was recently retracted.
In reality, the narrative became a vehicle for globalist Democrats to raid the U.S. Treasury and push de-growth policies that weakened the U.S. under the Biden-Harris regime. Meanwhile, China aggressively expanded coal-fired power generation, raising the question of whether the push for "green" policies amounted to little more than self-sabotage.
Another climate reality is that polar vortex mayhem across the eastern half of the U.S. this month has produced one of the snowiest starts to the Northern Hemisphere winter season in nearly two decades. This winter blast undermines the narrative pushed by Democrats, climate-aligned NGOs, and left-wing billionaires, as ...

Importierte Haushaltsgeräte: Brüssel plant CO2-Zoll auch für Waschmaschinen (N-TV)
|
|
|
Weil Unternehmen in der EU für den Ausstoß von CO2-Emissionen zahlen müssen, haben energieintensive Branchen einen Wettbewerbsnachteil gegenüber Konkurrenten aus Drittstaaten. Brüssel will das mit einem CO2-Zoll kompensieren – er soll für mehr importierte Produkte gelten... --- Mit dem CO₂-Grenzausgleichsmechanismus CBAM bepreist die EU Emissionen von Importen. Ab dem 1. Januar 2026 müssen Importeure also erstmals einen CO2-Preis für Emissionen zahlen, die bei der Produktion der Waren entstehen. --- Zum Ausgleich will die EU-Kommission einen Fonds zur Unterstützung von EU-Herstellern einrichten, die etwa wegen steigender Preise für importierten Stahl einen Wettbewerbsnachteil fürchten müssen. Der Fonds erstattet einen Teil der Zusatzkosten, die wegen EU-CO2-Regelungen entstehen.. --- Fakt ist: Neue Beamtenstellen werden geschaffen und Waschmaschinen werden für den deutschen Michel teurer!
