The European Parliament will vote on a report on the annual work of the European Central Bank, which includes a passage in support of the digital euro. The vote will take place on Tuesday. #EuropeNews

Verdens lande er langt fra at indfri målet om at halvere pesticidrisici i landbruget inden 2030. Tværtimod er den samlede pesticidbelastning verden over steget i de år, som FN-landene skal måle fremtidige reduktioner i forhold til. Forskere anbefaler bl.a. mere økologi. okonu.dk/politik-og-u...

THE 2025 CORRUPTION PERCEPTIONS INDEX IS OUT It's that time of the year again. And this year, once again, the EU's score remains 62. No improvement has been made on last year's score.

Solar and batteries are cheap enough that most people can get most of their electricity from them, and save money. This equation gets better and better over time as their costs decline. All details in a new blog post: nworbmot.org/blog/solar-b...

Not too encouraging to hear that the world's major producer of advanced semiconductors is run almost entirely on electricity produced from coal and LNG. Fortunately, Taiwan has a goal of becoming carbon-neutral by 2050. Hear how and if they can get there.

Part e-bike and part van, this new class of pedal-powered vehicles is overhauling last-mile delivery—and the fabric of car-centric urban life. “I do think we're asking a fundamental question of who is entitled to space in the city?" insideevs.com/features/786...

Now that more details are known about the three #V2G propositions (🇩🇪 BMW/E.ON, 🇫🇷 Mobilize/Renault/Mobility House, 🇬🇧 Octopus) currently available or announced in Europe, it is time to compare them. All three aim to enable the average user to drive for free with an annual mileage of 11,000–14,000 km

Elbilen som pengemaskine: 16.000 km gratis med V2G i Tyskland🔌🚗 Det er resultatet af lanceringen af en tovejsladningsaftale mellem Ford og Octopus Energy (i samarbejde med Ambibox) Tyske Ford Capri og Explorer bliver dermed ikk kun et transportmiddel, men et aktivt i elnettet⚡

i have always found it underdiscussed that almost ~20% of all global silver production is used in solar photovoltaic metallization layers — a figure that's up ~4x in the past decade even as the relative silver loading per panel has *dropped* ~3x in the same period! #energysky

“They haven’t really been able to produce solid evidence to back these hypotheses up,” researcher Anders Peter Hviid of the Danish State Serum Institute...told Al Jazeera, questioning why the researchers would be willing to administer a vaccine they think is harmful in the first place"

Ble Intervjuet i Nettavisen om trekanten Jagland, Epstein og Russland: "Med de forbeholdene, vil jeg si at det er nøyaktig slik de russiske sikkerhetstjenestene ville tenkt: At han nå har kompromittert seg selv, og at dette er informasjon som kan brukes mot ham." www.nettavisen.no/nyheter/epst...

⚡️Zelensky says Russia presented $12 trillion economic plan to US, called 'Dmitriev package.' President Volodymyr Zelensky described it as a proposed framework for large-scale U.S.-Russia economic cooperation.

There is way too much optimism about the peace process between Russia and Ukraine. In reality, there is little reason to believe that the current talks will lead anywhere. In this video, I give a status on the talks and discuss why Trump's efforts to stop the war have failed.

Lars Trier Mogensen @triermogensen.bsky.social havde før jul i Guld og Grønne Skove besøg af Klaus Nyengaard og Emil Drevsfeldt @emildrevsfeldtn.bsky.social til en snak om atomkraft i form af små modulære reaktorer. Saltfoss Energy forventer at kunne levere dem fra 2035. www.dr.dk/lyd/p1/guld-...

EU’s oprustning er inspireret af Ukraines overlevelseskamp, der er præget af hurtig innovation, nye samarbejder med små virksomheder og konstant udvikling baseret på erfaringer fra krigen. Men det er ikke nok til at skabe et fremtidssikret, forsvarsparat Europa. Læs her👇 www.diis.dk/publikatione...

Virkelig fascinerende og inspirerende podcast. Der er så meget snak om, at Europa ikke er med fremme på innovationsfronten. Her er en banebrydende ny teknologi, udviklet i Sverige, og hvor lovgrundlaget for at rulle den ud allerede er rigtig fordelagtigt. Lad os komme i gang og blive førende her.

The last 24 hours around Iran have been a textbook lesson in how crises escalate: jittery moves, mixed signals and shrinking room for errors. When nerves fray, even small moves have consequences 1/5

Input fra Lene Tanggaard @lenetanggaard.bsky.social og her Louise Klinge: Hun så hellere, at skolerne fik mere fleksibilitet i forhold til at vælge mellem flere lærere og mere pædagogisk personale i de små klasser. »Normering har ikke stor betydning, hvis undervisningens kvalitet ikke er høj nok.«

Ukraine warned for years that Europe's human rights chief served Moscow's interests. Now the Epstein files show Jagland agreed to connect Epstein to Lavrov—three weeks before the 2018 Trump-Putin summit. KGB defectors had named Jagland as "Yuri" decades ago.

Europe depends on US companies to handle digital payments, putting our money at risk. A strong Digital Euro would give everyone safe, independent access to money. But banks and Big Tech want to kill the proposal. Save the digital euro. Sign the petition now: action.wemove.eu/sign/2026-02...

»Vi kommer længst, hvis vi har nogle visionære ledere, som er med til at skabe folkestemningerne. Det kan meget hurtigt blive en selvopfyldende profeti, hvis vi har ledere, der taler ind i en historie om, at vi ikke kan løfte klimaudfordringen,« siger Claus Ekman.

Today on Volts: "closed-loop" geothermal energy digs deeper than conventional geothermal & does not require natural hotspots, so it can be done anywhere. I talk with Eavor, a cutting-edge Canadian startup that has just opened its first closed-loop facility in Germany, about the possibilities.

Word of the day: Agrivoltaics. It means using land for both agriculture and solar panels. 🌱 ☀️ Sounds like a great idea, but could it work on a large, industrial scale? Join Host Ira Flatow, reporter Jana Rose Schleis, and environmental economics expert Madhu Khanna to find out.

Et stabilt og veludbygget elnet er nødvendig for elektrificering af fjernvarmen. Derfor er der behov for at samarbejde om at fjerne barrierer, se behov og prioritere udbygningen, siger @kimmortensen.bsky.social til #Børsen #elektrificering #dkgreen borsen.dk/nyheder/baer...?

1/5 I en dansk kontekst har Dansk Erhverv vurderet de "samfundsøkonomiske potentialer ved vaccination". Man finder: "Skoldkoppevaccination: Øger sundhedsudgifterne med ca. 16 mio. kr., men skaber en bredere økonomisk gevinst på 51 mio. kr. årligt gennem færre sygedage og øget produktivitet."

1/5 "Lone Stensballe kan være bekymret for, at det på længere sigt kan skade opbakningen til børnevaccinationsprogrammet generelt, hvis for mange vacciner bliver inkluderet - også vacciner mod ikke-dødelige sygdomme - fordi nogle kan få en opfattelse af, at også de andre vacciner er mindre vigtige."

Shadow tanker PEACE lacks safety management, insurance. She is flying a false flag of Timor-Leste where Timor-Leste demands of other states to stop her. She is lawless. Sanctioned by EU and UK. She is on her fifth delivery of Russian crude to India last 12m. She is leaving Baltic Sea laden now.

Danmark står midt i en historisk elektrificering. Husbatterier, elbiler, varmepumper og solceller bliver hver dag koblet på elnettet, og strøm er i stigende grad rygraden i både husholdninger og erhverv. energinyheder.dk/husbatterier...

Fin og afbalanceret diskussion om hvordan man kan skifte væk fra (amerikansk) big tech.

Ever scrolled through a social media debate and felt like someone was pulling the strings? Dozens of different profiles, different tones, different identities — all converging on the same narrative, as if it were self-evident. Some of this noise can now be generated by AI swarms. 1/7

Batteries are the "lightbulb of the 21st century": their costs are down 50% v. 18 months ago, and 95%+ v. 2010 It's a drastic drop of spectacular proportions, powering the clean energy transformation worldwide Another one of my charts of the year

OK, et af de første skridt når der skal skabes et grønt samfund er at elektrificere transport, opvarmning, industri etc. Det burde derfor ikke komme som en overraskelse at elnettet skal udbygges - så det ikke risikerer at blive en bottle-neck. Ok, det klarede DK så ikke. borsen.dk/nyheder/baer...
