Kyjiw in Flammen. Erneut hat Russland die Menschen in der ukrainischen Hauptstadt terrorisiert. Die ganze Stadt riecht nach Rauch. Insgesamt wurde die Ukraine mit 539 Drohnen und 11 Raketen angegriffen. Die Angriffswelle folgte auf das Telefonat zwischen Trump und Putin.

💰"CO2-Preis wird durch Subventionen ausgehebelt. Jetzt aber hat die Bundesregierung beschlossen, die Gaspreise [...] runterzusubventionieren, indem die Gaspreisumlage künftig aus dem Klima- und Transformationsfonds bezahlt wird. Diese Idee ist so absurd, sie kann eigentlich nur Satire sein."

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

There will be no midterm elections.

The tragic landslide in Blatten gives me the excuse to tell you the story of how we found out Ice Ages existed. It's a cool story and the most important bit is rather similar to what's happening now.

Bleakly poetic finale for one of Europe’s big green industrial hopes: there’s now a homepage auctioning off the entire Northvolt factory in Sweden - complete sell-off, right down to the parking signs and bike racks. nvx.psauction.com?gad_source=1...

Compared to the single price zone, splitting Germany in five zones will lead electricity wholesale prices to -increase in the South by <3% and in the West by <1% -decrease in the North by > 10-16% As network cost will also drop, impact on electricity cost in the South/West should be rather marginal.

Why did Finland's forests change from a carbon sink to a permanent source of emissions in a few years? The reason is simple: emissions from the soil increased exponentially. But what caused this explosion? There are at least three reasons for this, which I will explain in the thread below. 1/9

Atmospheric CO2 has passed 430 parts per million. The last time atmospheric CO2 was at 430 ppm was during the ancient Pliocene Era, three to five million years ago, and humans didn’t exist.

How Tariffs Affect Trade Deficits... ... a new paper with amazing trade economist Arnaud Costinot. Many politicians and the general public expect tariffs to reduce imports lower imports and thus work to close a trade deficit. Economists typically say "not so fast"... 🧵1/n

Trump is learning what Truss learned before him: that the market is the last bastion of commonly-accepted truth, which all sides accept as empirically real open.substack.com/pub/iandunt/...

At least there's a new DJ Koze album.

We've already established that the formula is ... well ... nonsense. But in the Swiss case, the figures are inflated by investors moving gold into the US at the end of last year due to - that's right! - the threat of tariffs. Exclude those flows and Swiss exports would be subject to 20%.

🚨 KITE Insta-Analysis: New "reciprocal" US tariffs are serious. We ran both status quo (tariffs until April 2 incl. retaliation) and newly announced reciprocal tariff regime through the KITE model. (Non-) spoiler: 🇺🇸 hits itself the hardest. NB: Short-run, extremely ad-hoc. 1/n

Timely. “The tariffs did not boost local steel employment but substantially depressed local employment in steel-consuming industries for many years after Bush removed the tariffs. The tariffs also led to a persistent exit of steel-intensive manufacturing establishments”

If you are visiting the United States, having a negative view of Trump is enough to get you denied entry. If this was coming out of Russia or China, we would deplore such an authoritarian attack on freedom of expression.

Bill Gates has liquidated his climate policy and advocacy organization, laying off dozens of staff in Washington, Brussels, and elsewhere. It’s another giant retrenchment for the billionaire, who had already slashed his climate grant budget last month. heatmap.news/climate/brea...
