The European Union is a complicated place in terms of climate change mitigation and other environmental issues, largely because it contains countries like Poland that are heavily dependent on coal.
Having said that, there is some really good news from the Continent as to how to rebuild the economy in a post-pandemic world. From this article in CEENERGY NEWS:

The gentleman who co-wrote Trump’s “The Art of the Deal” has never been a fan of the president, but his precise viewpoint has changed since he witnessed the response to COVID-19. This video, less than two minutes in length, is actually hard to watch, as we see a man quite credibly explaining why Trump has done so little to curtail the virus.
This is like watching a movie such as “The Bad Seed,” or “The Jagged Edge,” or any of the films about Ted Bundy, in which there is a horrible moment in which we realize that the killer is devoid of all conscience.
The author of the meme here brings up an excellent point.
I happen to know some extremely well-educated Republicans; in fact, my mother is one. (more…)
Reader Markus Dirnbacher asks, Sustainable hydrogen – amongst all currently available technologies- will be the only possibility for long term storage of power! Do you agree?

Below is a link to a short but extremely well-done video from WBUR FM, which is Boston’s National Public Radio affiliate and the producer of massive amounts of content that we hear and see on a daily basis. Here, climate activist Frederick Hewett does a great job at explaining what climate-driven storm flooding is in the process of doing to the previously predictable and life-giving rivers.
“What we have is precious and it’s also vulnerable,” Hewett says. “We have to face the reality of climate change because it doesn’t show itself in our lives every day. But it is very much there. It is very real.”
