Summarization
The International Energy Agency (IEA) continues to underestimate solar energy; the private sector is interested in carbon markets but there is skepticism among the climate community; there is potential to reduce emissions from nitrogen fertilisers by 84% by 2050; there is an inequality in the climate crisis; climate and energy have been mentioned in the State of the Union since 1989; the cost of solar has fallen due to the experience curve; renewable energy will be the biggest source globally of electricity within three years; Pacific north-west’s brutal 2021 heatwave has been analysed by Rachel White; there are risks and challenges to small and poor states with regards to green industrial policy; there is potential to reduce the current level of fertiliser emissions by one-fifth by 2050; current CO2 emissions have killed the ice age cycle of the past million years; carbon markets can be improved to be more reliable and transparent.
Topic Modeling
- Solar Energy - The IEA continues to underestimate solar and the discrepancy remains stunning;Powerful graphic from @CarbonBrief showing the profound inequality of the Climate Crisis.
- Carbon Markets - "The private sector is quite keen on carbon markets... but there is a lot of skepticism from the climate community" - 💚 or ⚠? What's the general opinion on #carbonmarkets? Are carbon markets reliable and what can be done to make them more transparent?
- Nitrogen Fertilisers - This is HUGE: a new study shows that emissions from nitrogen fertilisers could be cut by up to 84% by 2050. HUGE! Fertiliser emissions could be cut to ‘one-fifth of current levels’ by 2050 - study.
- Climate Crisis - Alarming News:Half of #World’s #Glaciers to Disappear w. 1.5C of #GlobalWarming. Whelan claimed “wind turbines & solar panels are not going to keep us warm”; “O nosso território, a nossa floresta, é tudo o que temos: onde vivemos, alimentamos, plantamos alimentos tradicionais, rezamos, obtemos remédios, colheitas, e o ar que respiramos.” Yes, and now our CO2 emissions have killed the delicate balance that maintained livable conditions on Earth.
- State of the Union - Here’s a history of how climate and energy have been mentioned in the State of the Union since 1989.
Emotional Analysis
The emotions expressed in these tweets range from enthusiasm and excitement about renewable energy, to disbelief and skepticism about the IEA's predictions, to concern about the effects of global warming, to admiration for the work of CarbonBrief.
