Russian Resurgence: Putin’s Grand Plan to Meet Insatiable Demand for Coal in Asia
14 Jun 2021 Leave a comment
As the wind and solar cult would have it, ‘coal is dead’ and wind and solar power are the gloating villains that killed it. Well, that’s the meme, anyway.
Back on Earth, coal-fired power and the coal industry that fuels it are in very robust health, indeed.
Outside of the virtue signalling Western nations that signed up to heavily subsidise the unreliables, demand for coal has never been stronger. And there are plenty of willing players eager to satisfy that demand.
Vladimir Putin is among them, with plans to increase, already surging, Russian coal production even further.
We’ll cross to the team at Jo Nova for the latest on coal’s Russian resurgence, and then we’ll take a look at the surge in global demand for coal, with the help of the Global Warming Policy Forum.
Russia bets big on coal, gas, fossil fuels, and not on renewables

Deep ‘decarbonization’ by 2050 currently not plausible, study finds
14 Jun 2021 Leave a comment
Some climate theories aren’t plausible either, including the one that thinks that atmospheric goings-on are more important than ocean dynamics like El Niño and La Niña. But the fear show must go on.

Today the Hamburg-based Cluster of Excellence “Climate, Climatic Change, and Society” (CLICCS) publishes a new, essential study on climate futures, reports Phys.org.
The study represents the first systematic attempt to investigate whether a climate future with net-zero carbon emissions is not only possible but also plausible.
The authors examine plausibility from a technical-economic perspective, but also with regard to the societal changes necessary for such a future.
They conclude that deep decarbonization by 2050 is currently not plausible—the current efforts to bring about societal transformation need to be far more ambitious.
