Sustaining America's Great Power Dominance. The kind of sustainability that should have primacy in all our conversations about energy and industry. HII https://lnkd.in/eydxKpcu

🖋 NEW BLOG POST! Guest writer, Yash Singh, is writing a series of articles related to environmental policy. His first article explores America's transition to solar energy and what that could mean for our dependence on foreign nations and homeland security. It's a quick read that is packed with information. Check it out now: https://lnkd.in/dymVzWMc

Energy is recognized as the key to all activity on earth.

The US military produces more CO2 than the whole of Africa combined (actually more than most countries in the world). Its immoral to expect Africa to reduce its CO2 when the superpowers refuse to sign a peace treaty and reduce arms. If the superpowers stop making bombs that they use to blow up the environment and stop using depleted uranium to poison rivers and fertile land, then we can consider to stop using coal.

The Outer Banks of North Carolina are setting up to be the scene of a climate experiment for ocean-based carbon removal. A mineral called olivine, could enhance the ocean’s ability to absorb carbon from the atmosphere. @Vesta is now the first company with a federal permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to deploy a stand-alone carbon removal test in U.S. waters. Ocean-based carbon removal is an emerging area worth following as it has the potemtial to make important climate contributions in the future. #CarbonRemoval #BlueEconomy https://lnkd.in/g_hg4xUh

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, Chinese president, and chairman of the Central Military Commission, stressed that the environment concerns the well-being of people in all countries. During his many inspections, Xi has always emphasized the importance of ecosystems, spanning from cities to rural areas, and from enterprises to communities. #Xinjiang, #XiJinpingThought, #DolanSheep, #ArataxProject,

https://lnkd.in/dv5ypGEv Interesting and informative article on the connection between the Industrial Military Complex and Global Pollution.

Eyes on Offsets - Northrop Grumman NetZero by 2035 ... and developing leads in the voluntary carbon offset market. Check out this 3 minute video where I dig into Northrop Grumman and show how to use EnerKnol to develop leads in the voluntary carbon offset market Contact me to learn more.

Australia is responsible for 1% of global emissions. We are prepared to up-end our entire economy, dramatically impact our way of life and spend hundreds of billions of dollars to de-carbonise the nation. Australia is responsible for the defence of 10% of the earth. https://lnkd.in/gCaiuDTw We aren’t prepared to properly fund our Defence forces. We cut programs and gut budgets, dramatically impacting our defence capability. We underfund Defence by hundreds of billions of dollars, leaving the nation vulnerable to regional geo-political pressure. If anything we do is “a failure on a global scale” it’s adequately defending ourselves from the largest polluter nation on the planet.

The carbon footprint of military conflicts. Military conflicts, including destroying the existing energy supply infrastructure, and causing significant damage to the parties involved in the conflict, continue to pollute the atmosphere throughout the planet. During the first 60 days of the war, more than 281 thousand metric tons of carbon dioxide were generated in the Gaza Strip due to the actions of aircraft, tanks, missiles and artillery. The Russian-Ukrainian conflict has led to more than 150 million metric tons of CO2 emissions, which is about three times higher than New York's annual carbon dioxide pollution. Conflict and Environment Observatory states that the military may account for about 5.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. The U.S. military-industrial complex, which competes with annual carbon dioxide emissions from countries such as Norway or Sweden, accounts for the lion's share of emissions. According to the British Military Emissions Gap project, many countries continue to underestimate the actual emissions from the military-industrial complex. #emission #carbonemissions #decarbonisation #netzero #carbondioxide https://lnkd.in/dfpJ-Kuu
