NEW: Documents and recordings obtained by @ariellesamuel detail a multi-million dollar plan by the propane lobby to spin propane - a fossil fuel - as "clean" and "renewable"

Today at @canarymediainc, we examine a new climate threat: the risk that $100B+ in green hydrogen tax credits from the #InflationReductionAct could be tapped by companies using a greenwashing scheme powered by fossil fuels and painted green with manure: canarymedia.com/articles/hyd…

📢Over their lifetime, battery electric trucks produced in Europe today emit 63% less GHG emissions than their diesel counterparts.
This is one of the key findings of a 🆕 ICCT lifecycle analysis of trucks 🚚 and buses 🚌 .
Watch our video explainer and learn more 👇🧵

Setting a cap on the use of lipid-based feedstocks in California’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard is critical to prevent negative impacts on food and feed markets—and would promote the growth of alternative feedstocks.

Big report time: Projecting aviations carbon emissions till 2050. Even our most aggressive scenario for decarbonisation uses up aviations 1.75C carbon budget by 2050. Emissions need to peak as early as 2025. @TheICCT @SonOfOldRPI @rutherdan @ZhengSola

Slow clap here for @TheICCT for including methane leakage in vehicle life cycle emissions analysis. We need more accounting for methane across the board.
[NEW] study of the life-cycle #GHG emissions of ICE & electric passenger cars covers 🇨🇳,🇪🇺,🇮🇳,🇺🇸 and considers:
✅average real-world fuel/electricity use
✅recent data on industrial-scale battery production
✅20-yr GWP of methane
✅& more

A lot of new alternative fuel targets in EU's 'Fit for 55' release: 13% GHG target for ALL transport fuels in 2030 (2.6% RFNBO mandate); 5% SAF mandate in 2030, 20% in 2035 & 63% in 2050; 6% GHG target for maritime fuels in 2030 rising to 75% in 2050. URL: ec.europa.eu/info/strategy/p…

The Netherlands can meet the REDII 14% transport target using only sustainable advanced fuels and renewable electricity - no need to rely on food-based biofuels. The 3.5% advanced biofuel target will be harder, requiring strong, consistent policy support: theicct.org/publications/alt…

My beloved @guardian is giving @HansWernerSinn a platform to disseminate the fake news that EVs emit more CO2 than diesels.
How many times do I have to debunk this untrue fact?
I hope the Guardian will issue a correction but in the meantime... here we go again... (thread)

Interesting analysis by Andreas Schäfer et al. on the prospects for electric flight. Short version: Electric airplanes could conceivably displace a large number of medium-haul flights by 2050, but batteries will have to get a *lot* better: nature.com/articles/s41560-0… /1

I pubbed a piece on the rush by gig economy firms to file IPOs before court challenges and labor regulatory changes catch up to them. Some are likely transferring risk of their business model to retail investors so venture capitalists can cash out theintercept.com/2019/04/01/…
