As the world grapples with the challenges of climate change, the ecological risks associated with metal extraction are becoming increasingly apparent. In our report "#SacrificeZones for Sustainability? Green Extractivism and the Struggle for a Just Transition," we uncover a contradiction in EU policies that could result in sacrifice zones for the energy and digital transitions. Join us tomorrow at 16h CET for the launch of our report and to learn more about the contradiction that could prevent the transition from ever being truly just. Register below.

Ocean Impact released this video that in 3 minutes will change your view on how society can best get ahead of any negative effects of climate change.

🎉 April Fool's Day: A Green Twist! 🌿 Did you know? April Fool's Day, also known as All Fools' Day, has its roots in 16th-century France. Back then, the Julian calendar was in use, and New Year's Day was celebrated around the end of March. However, with the adoption of the Gregorian calendar, New Year's Day moved to January 1st. Those who continued to celebrate it in late March were ridiculed and became the butt of jokes and pranks—thus, the tradition of April Fool's Day began! 📅🃏 But what if this year, we play a different kind of prank? Let's trick climate change into thinking we're making big changes for the planet. Imagine the surprise on its face when it sees us actually taking action! 😲🌍 "THE REAL JOKE WOULD BE ON CLIMATE CHANGE ITSELF". It's time to stop fooling around and start fooling climate change by making sustainable choices every day. ♻️🌱 At Alphanext, we're not just about April Fools' pranks; we're about making a real impact. We stand for "CLEANER & GREENER' future and are committed to sustainable practices. 🌿💚 This April Fool's Day, join us in playing the ultimate prank on climate change. Let's make every day Earth Day! 🌎🌟 Together, we can turn the tables on climate change. 🌍💚 . . . #AprilFoolsDay #GreenPrank #SustainableFuture #Alphanext

Achievements of today are the stepping stones for the future ones

Türkiye: moving forward in the European eco-system

We would like our energy transition to a carbon free future to be like a fight high speed train, with an engine pulling at the front to the direction we want to go and one at the back pushing us ahead. The one at the front is the commitment to renewables, better land use, nature, and all that. The one at the back is the reduction of oil, gas, and coal production. Think of it as letting a balloon fly by letting the air out. Woosh... The problem is we are putting more air into the balloon. This November, India's coal production increased by double digits compared with the same month last year. Indonesia's plan to phase out coal power explicitly excludes private plants used to drive the energy intensive industries. As they grow, they will drive more coal production. And it's not just coal. Where gas has replaced coal, we think that's okay then to use more gas and end up with the opposite of what we intended --- more oil, gas, and coal use. The question is will you pay to keep oil, gas, and coal in the ground? Will you support a voluntary market and pay real money? In Europe, the official carbon credits traded to €150 a tonne. Will people and industry pay €50 a tonne of the real stuff that locks oil, gas, and coal away forever? Will impact funds support using this to raise funds where for each dollar raised a dollar is spent to prevent climate devastation from getting worse? Anyway, join us in our conversations on #Its4U. We go live each day till the 12th day of COP at 10am-1pm, 2-5pm, 7-10pm, and 3am-6am GMT on my profile in LinkedIn, and on @RethinkingChoices in YouTube, and Facebook group its4u.earth. sign up bit.ly/signup2its4u so we can get your voice.

Economic Integration between Private sector and Public Sector: Part Two Lastly, in this sector: monitoring, tracking, supervising and follow-up on goals, achievement rates, and outputs are necessary. There should be dedicated and neutral institutions for this purpose for the sake of assurance that targets are achieved and results are accomplished. Note: If we move to private education, there is a completely different industry and sector. The vision of the country has to well established and well designed. The vision shall be based on the target positioning of the country. In other words, where does the country see itself in 10 years, 20 years, and even 40 years. All shall be based on the available resources within the country itself and localizing knowledge. A country that has no Oil or Gas resources but has a rich variety of touristic attractions, targets such as annually attracting 30 million tourists needs both the public and private sectors to cooperate and complement each other. The main facility to receive tourism is the airport, to receive 30 million tourists; arrival and departure can be thought of to be completed within 20 minutes from existing the plane until the taxi pick up zone or for travelers, entering the airport building to boarding the plane and sitting in your seat can take a place in 30 minutes. Countries with spacious deserts terrain can make adventures by crossing the desert and dunes pashing as an attraction. Start with promotions, route selection, and adventure diversification. Private companies provide four wheelers, arrangements and running the show. With time, the industry will grow and the demand will drive the hospitality industry to grow. Countries with Human Resources can adopt strategies and targets to be manufacturing center (not just assembly) for the new emerging industrial trends such as electric or hybrid cars. Morocco is an excellent example where they have set the target to be a global Electrical Vehicles Manufacturing hub. Morocco has become famous for its vast, world-leading solar arrays where they are generating almost 40% of its energy needs from Solar Plants. How Morocco went big on solar energy (bbc.com) These goals require planning, strategies, and integration between the public and private sectors and amongst the targeted sectors. Industries and sectors are all interconnected where one leads to the other. This discussion could go on and on, but there must be those with the required expertise who will bear the responsibilities, execute, achieve the set goals, and elevate the economy and industrial sectors. Everything is an industry. #CTOAcademy #مؤسسة_ولي_العهد
