#USA #US #COP31 They can get serious at COP31 and join with us in the net zero transition. If they don’t the world may be watching a major contraction of the US economy as it tries to hold onto yesterday’s fuels and vehicles. Can we convince the new Democrat-based US system to join this net zero transition? We don’t want a nuclear bomb and Elon has opted for the stars as his focus. It’s time for the US to re-join the world in COP31 https://johnmenadue.com/post/2026/11/time-for-the-us-to-rejoin-the-world-on-climate-action/ #ClimateChange #pollution #climate

Time for the US to rejoin the world on climate action

American voters punished Republicans over petrol prices but neither party offered a path away from oil. China and others are racing ahead on net zero transition. COP31 is the moment for the US to rejoin the world – or watch its economy contract.

#USA #US But in truth, the US betrayal on climate has always been much, much bigger than Trump The multiple veto points that exist across its legislative system - as well as the strength of its fossil-fuel lobby – mean that the US never developed the same political consensus around climate action as occurred in the UK and EU (text available in “reading mode”) https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/cop31-turkey-antalya-cliamte-change-trump-conference-b3080710.html #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

America’s climate betrayal has always been much bigger than Trump

The US is the only major economy not in attendance at the Cop31 conference in Antalya – but it will take more than Donald Trump’s midterm reckoning to restore its diplomatic influence, says Nick Ferris

Wurde als Politikwissenschaftler gefragt, warum POTUS Trump auf die Kritik seines Vizes JD Vance so erstaunlich kleinmütig reagierte. Die Antwort findet sich im 25. Zusatzartikel der US-Verfassung von 1967: Vance könnte Trump mit der einfachen Mehrheit im Kabinett für amtsunfähig erklären & absetzen. Würde Trump schriftlich widersprechen, so entschiede binnen 21 Tagen der Kongress (Repräsentantenhaus & Senat) je mit Zwei-Drittel-Mehrheit über die Rechtmäßigkeit der Absetzung. Da die Demokraten nun in beiden Häusern des Kongresses solide Mehrheiten haben, reichen Teile der GOP-Gewählten, um Trump ohne Impeachment-Verfahren loszuwerden. Vance weiß das & Trump wittert es. Und wer wollte bestreiten, dass der 80jährige Wutsurfer der algorithmischen Wutwelle seit 2012 zunehmend amtsunfähig erscheint? Trump ist 1 „lame duck“ im Fadenkreuz des Zöglings von Peter Thiel… #Politikwissenschaft #USA #Verfassung #Trump #Vance #Artikel25 #Absetzung #POTUS #Thiel #Wutwelle #MAGA #Kongress

Replying to
@snaefell@mastodon.social Ja, ich halte den auch vom deutschen Axel-Springer-Konzern hofierten Apokalyptiker Peter Thiel für außerordentlich gefährlich. Und habe das auch mehrfach öffentlich gesagt. Im Gegensatz zu den meisten hat Thiel die Medienpsychologie der Mimesis im Blick, glaubt zudem an Verschwörungsmythen sogar Richtung Papst & an die Notwendigkeit eines rechtsdualistischen Katechon. Und hat sich dabei besser im Griff als die Thymoten Trump & Musk. #Thiel #Mimesis #Katechon #Vance #Verschwörungsmythen #Papst #Apokalypse #USA #Deutschland #AxelSpringerKonzern

Peter Thiel: Wenn der Antichrist instrumentalisiert wird

Mit seinen Investitionen machte Peter Thiel Milliarden. Gleichzeitig gilt er als Strippenzieher der Neuen Rechten in den USA. Jüngst schrieb er über Benedikt XVI. und den Antichristen – und offenbarte ein gefährliches Weltbild.

Next #pandemic could be brewing on mink farm in #Utah; little being done to stop it

#Mink farms are perfect petri dishes for #deadly #flu strains to emerge

Could this be ground zero?

It’s a candidate, because chain of events to trigger #plague far worse than #Covid-19 looks like disaster film opening sequence. A really bad disaster movie

#USA #US — Slower electrification could cost the U.S. economy a cumulative $2.3 trillion through 2035. — Restricting renewable growth is estimated to cost $121 billion from 2027 to 2033. — Policy uncertainties have led to the cancellation of 20-25% of solar projects. — U.S. electricity prices have already risen more than 40% since the start of the pandemic (text available in “reading mode”) https://www.masslive.com/opinion/2026/11/environmental-injuries-mount-with-each-passing-day-of-trump-20-paul-chiampa.html #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #pollution #ecology #environment #climate

#USA #US This was the “affordability election” with concerns about inflation & high energy prices Newly elected lawmakers will enter office with energy policy proposals to address voter concerns She noted that renewable energy is less expensive than fossil fuels and can be developed quickly, promising rapid benefits for consumers. The growth of electric transportation reduces greenhouse gas emissions & shields consumers from the volatility of gasoline & diesel https://insideclimatenews.org/news/05112026/inside-clean-energy-democrats-trifecta-results/ #climate

Democrats’ Big Statehouse Wins Could Transform Climate and Energy Policy - Inside Climate News

Before Tuesday’s election, Republicans held more governorships and state legislative seats than Democrats, along with an advantage in state trifectas—unified control of the governor’s office and both chambers of the legislature. That advantage has disappeared, clearing the path for more climate and clean energy legislation, according to analysts and advocates. Democrats swept the vast majority […]

#students #USA #US Only four percent of college students in a recent survey reported feeling hopeful about the climate crisis frequently or “a lot.” Many others reported a bleak mix of powerlessness, frustration, and anxiety. Yet universities may not be doing enough to help students manage these difficult emotions https://www.earth.com/climate/a-generation-feeling-powerless-college-students-are-overwhelmed-by-climate-anxiety/ #ClimateChange #UpheavalClimate #ClimateInstability #ClimateReversal #MassAtrocity #pollution #ecology #environment #climate
