An important thread on TwiX by @Peters_Glen
He analyses the allegedly accomplished disconnect of GDP vs CO2 . #IEA had published a SUCCESS story. Glen debunks it: The disconnect is NOT happening.
Look at all the charts Glen created
nitter.cz/Peters_Glen/status/1
The disconnect is not happening. And where it does a tiny bit, eg Denmark, it is nowhere near enough the rate it would need to be if one wants to desperately cling to the fairy tale of #GreenGrowth & #capitalism . GreenGrowth & #GDP growth – while #CO2 shrinks as fast as it has to – works only in theory. And only if it is done globally, without "exporting" CO2-intensive activities to regions with bad emission laws.
We now need to hit the breaks really hard. Controlled, managed #Degrowth = #PlannedEconomy from now for the next 20 years or so, followed by a #PostGrowth system.
It was simply left too long, too much CO2 accumulated due to decadent #economists spouting fairytales and #BigOil telling lies.
#Economics #climate #rations

Like what about emergency communication devices like the #blackbox's have on airplanes. Or maybe a #beacon? The #titanicsubmarine may just have lacked a proper #safety #DFMEA Design Failure Mode and Effect Analysis. ....hmmm what are the ways one could get stuck down there, and have we mitigated those risks with proper tactics... #flotation devices, #radio beacons, #emergency heat #blankets, oxygen replenishment devices, extra raccoons(yes! auto complete), and #rations. Exit suit/s. #rope?

True. Justification is the unfounded belief that everything can and should continue as it is.
From 1939-56, all the Brits went into emergency mode. Blue-blooded and blue-collars alike received #rations and their industry got told what to produce – no manpower for unessentials.
Women's dresses were allowed 5 buttons and they invented egg powder to save import shipping space for the war effort.
Result: all warring nations increased their CO2 bigly – but UK did not!

I think, our job is to create "appetite" in citizens for controlled #degrowth.
In democracies we don't need 100% on our side, a majority is enough. So discard the trolls in politics and industry and instead focus on citizens.
If you're US American: do not spread hopelessness that arose during analysing your society. Do not discourage others in other world regions from kickstarting the global revolution-eq.
And remember what the Brits did 1939-56: #Rations in a #TriageEconomy

Why do #westernGovts seem happy to condition #children into #Etherium rather than #Bitcoin?

A new theory we thought of today relates to #rationing.

Why even bother with #money if you can just #ration stuff. During #warTimes #rations were how #resources were divided among the people. It seems ETH is well-suited to it.

So not only does #ETH appear to have a highly controlled dev team and highly contrived and likely gameable #ProofOfStake model.

It might be good for #war.
