#Tesla ha perso il 30% da gennaio dopo l'attività di #Elonmusk con il governo #USA
Le vendite sono calate in #Europa tra il 25% e il 50% circa (dove più dove meno in base allo stato) e in #california
Non è detto che questo si trasformi in una tendenza stabile, ma ci sono alla base tre fenomeni che possono spiegare l'andamento attuale:

1 - #Musk è il volto (ingombrante) di Tesla
2 - Vendendo meno auto hanno meno #carboncredit da rivendere ad altre aziende
3 - L'attesa di dazi su #Tesla

along with #carboncredit income, restoration will be paid for through commercial forestry – specifically the planting of non-native #eucalyptus plantations, known as ”green deserts” by their detractors because they are famously water-thirsty.

Beyond biodiversity concerns about monoculture plantations, it raises questions about whether planting more eucalyptus is the best ecological option for #brazil which is in the grip of a historic #drought.

It needs to be said that this speculative bubble and the unscrupulous and the fraudulent '#CarbonCredit' nonsense underlying it has been consciously and irresponsibly driven by #SNP #ScotGov policies.

This is not JUST bad lairds; it's also really poor governance, and if you're still voting SNP in the face of this, have a long hard look at yourself. This policy hits Scotland, it hits the people of rural Scotland, and it benefits only the kleptocrats.

#CARBONCREDIT E OFFSET: COSA SONO E PERCHÉ SONO CONTROPRODUCENTI

Sono sistemi che dovrebbero servire a rendere le aziende più "green", ma...

I crediti possono derivare da progetti fasulli, vengono scambiati come strumenti finanziari (con annessi problemi di qualunque mercato) e rischiano di commerciare inquinanti

Nice and timely move: « EU bans ‘misleading’ environmental claims that rely on offsetting—Terms such as “climate neutral” or “climate positive” that rely on offsetting will be banned from the EU by 2026 as part of a crackdown on misleading environmental claims »

@GreenFire @thesquirrelfish Great discussion guys!
While not technically carbon credits, I offset part of my emissions I can’t lower with a subscription to Wren, which then does things like tech monitoring by indigenous Amazonian tribes defending the #rainforest and other proven #ClimateAction that works. Here’s hoping the #CarbonCredit markets evolve into more accountability and candor!

"AMY GOODMAN: It’s one of the largest oil corporations in the world, #ADNOC, the #AbuDhabiNationalOilCorporation, #SultanAlJaber, who is the head of this COP.

"NNIMMO BASSEY: Yes. And, you know, we’ve heard so many things going on. And with the #FossilFuel industry being so prominent here, with bankers crawling the spaces of the COP, we’re seeing a lot of trade discussions. And, you know, this breaks my heart when I look at the way African negotiators or policymakers, the politicians, are bending back and accepting whatever is being thrown at them by the — through those who are investing in #CarbonOffsetting or #CarbonTrading mechanisms. We’re seeing a sellout of #AfricanContinent.

"And we know the implications for this. One, it means once you sell out a territory for a period of time, you’ve lost #sovereignty, so to speak, over that place, over that #forest, over that community, over that territory. And then it means negatively — negative impact on communities who live in the area that we are selling out. We’re talking about millions of hectares being mapped out to be sold for #CarbonCredit generative facilities. And, you know, some of this means #reforestation or forestation. It means clearing the land and planting new trees. Now, that itself emits, releases a lot of carbon from the soil. And then, of course, these #NewTrees are #monocultures, and they don’t — they are not as efficient #CarbonSinks as #NaturalForests. And so we’re seeing losses in every dimension."
