2024 wird – den neuesten Copernicus-Daten zufolge – mit sehr großer Wahrscheinlichkeit das erste Jahr mit einer Durchschnittstemperatur von über 1,5° über dem vorindustriellen Durchschnitt und damit das wärmste Jahr der Messgeschichte werden. Im Oktober lag die durchschnittliche Meerestemperatur über 20° – der zweithöchste Wert nach 2023.

Allein das Rollback der klimapolitischen Maßnahmen der Biden-Administration durch die Trump-Regierung wird bis 2030 zu 4 Gigatonnen CO2-Äqivalenten an zusätzlicher Emissionen führen (bis 2050 zu 27GtCO2e). Die Analyse verschiedener Modellierungen der von Trump geplanten Maßnahmen durch Carbon Brief ergab im März, dass die USA damit weltweit fast eine Billiarde USD zusätzlicher „social costs of carbon“ verursachen würden. Die geplante weitere fossile Expansion unter dem Motto „drill, Baby, drill!“ ist dabei nicht einberechnet https://www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-trump-election-win-could-add-4bn-tonnes-to-us-emissions-by-2030

EU-Kommissionspräsidentin von der Leyen will nach einem Gespräch mit Donald Trump offenbar zusätzliches LNG aus den USA beziehen, um Schutzzölle zu verhindern. Das Gas solle LNG aus Russland ersetzen. LNG aus Russland wird von der EU bisher nicht mit Sanktionen belegt. Die USA sind bereits der größte LNG-Lieferant der EU.

Die Fossilindustrie in den USA fürchtet einen Paradigmenwechsel weg vom Primat von Öl und Gas vor allem, weil er Kapital aus ihrem Sektor abziehen würde. Deshalb unterstützt sie Trump gegen Harris, obwohl die USA unter der Biden-Administration zu einem Rekord-Ölproduzenten und zum führenden Gas-Exporteur wurden.

I'm reading the entirety of the #project2025 book: https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_FULL.pdf
The intro lays things out very clearly -- full-blown attacks on trans and queer folks of any stripe; utter dismissal of climate change; disdain for any form of expertise and education (wonderfully incoherent, given the sparkling pedigrees of the document's many authors); economic thinking that's equally incoherent, if not at times magically-realistic; christian nationalism; and incessant, self-pitying grievance politics

“(T)he 2020 election revealed that, at least with respect to an administration’s senior most officials, the Hatch Act is only as effective as the White House decides it will be. Where, as happened here, the White House chooses to ignore the Hatch Act’s requirements, then the American public is left with no protection against senior administration officials using their official authority for partisan political gain in violation of the law,” it reads.
Why can't it act and prosecute with the new administration?

A 2016 Lancet study found that universal breast-feeding would prevent 800,000 child deaths a year across the globe and yield $300 billion in savings from reduced health care costs and improved economic outcomes for those reared on breast milk.
Pure corruption here. Protectionism to prop up profits of approximately 630 million versus major benefits and savings of 300 billion. Even if you look at the calculus of the entire industry of 70 billion it becomes a no brainer.

An NSC official confirmed the existence of the playbook but dismissed its value. “We are aware of the document, although it’s quite dated and has been superseded by strategic and operational biodefense policies published since,” the official said. “The plan we are executing now is a better fit, more detailed, and applies the relevant lessons learned from the playbook and the most recent Ebola epidemic in the [Democratic Republic of the Congo] to COVID-19.”
If this is the case, then where is this "new" playbook? And can they point to specific pieces on that timeline that indicate that they're actually performing better than the prior playbook? Let's see the evidence here.
