Austria is subsidizing fossil fuels with 5.7bln Euros per year at least a study from #WIFO found. That is more than 630EUR per year per capita, from toddler to grandparent 🤯
60% of this is #transport #subsidies, no surprise there -- we're actually paying people to commute from the #suburbs into cities.

Here is our statement about the German ISD study on extremist use of #PeerTube.

@h0g3R True. There have been different approaches and it's interesting to see this in the light of the relation to Russia now: Hermann Scheer for example seems almost greener than green and shaped a lot of very good policies (e.g. in Hessen 2003). And it's funny to see that e.g. Gabriel not only didn't really like the EEG and was very open to CDU/CSU's views but also really liked lignite (brown coal), cars and Russian gas. It's like you can see how energy transition, industry transition and geopolitics meet in one spot, and it's Hannover's SPD ^^
@h0g3R Ausschreibung is a call for bids or tender offer. The process at hand (if I'm not mistaken) was introduced in the 2016/17 reform of the bill (EEG) and switched from fixed price feed-in tariff (Einspeisevergütung, i.e. a fixed price per kWh for eligible renewables) to a tender offer process. This was, at the time, highly criticised because it works okay for large parks (say offshore or large developments somewhere in the middle of nowhere) but it's a huge burden for the typical 3-10 site small development.
So, the key point is: Apparently, the process is to hard for most interested parties, so instead of building new sites, they simply don't.
The reason I framed this as the work of conservatives is that their central claim was that energy in Germany is too expensive because of the fixed price for renewables (which is simply not true, as price in general is strongly determined by the order merit process).
What I did not mention is that @spdbt and in particular ministers Zypries and Gabriel have their fair share in this mess as well. I'd still argue they did it on behalf of the conservatives though, as they initially introduced the EEG and the fixed price for renewables themselves back under Schröder in the early 2000s and I am not aware of a strong opposition against fixed price feed-in tariff (Einspeisevergütung) within the party.

Oh hell yeah. @mozilla is launching a Mastodon instance in early 2023! I’m very excited for this. Mozilla is really good at what they do. Firefox has over 200M monthly active users, and with any luck they’ll build better support for the fediverse into Firefox itself. Mastodon will greatly benefit from easy to use professionally run instances that can handle massive scaling https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/mozilla-launch-fediverse-instance-social-media-alternative/

I have an earnest “ignorant white man” question for #IndigenousMastodon.
My great-grandfather was Oneida. I remember him and his stories well.
I would never assume to identify as Native American. I was not raised in the culture, and cannot claim its mantle. But…
What are some positive and constructive ways I can honor his legacy and this small part of my heritage?
@h0g3R
The article is not about the price mechanism for electricity. It's about building new wind power plants.

In places with no mining or industry in Alaska's Brooks Range, streams run orange. Water is too acidic to drink. It curdles powdered milk.
Jim Magdanz first altered me to this phenom. Here, Emily Schwing writes that it is likely caused by degrading permafrost

"Energiepolitisches Desaster": Bund wird Lose für Windkraftanlagen nicht los

The only party not involved in the past 16 years were the Greens. I assume they'll be trialed and convicted instantly.

Erstaunlicher Vorgang: ein CDU-Politiker drängt mich mehrfach per Tweets und Mails, einen Tweet zu löschen, der ihm nicht gefällt. Er unterstellt mir gar völlig evidenzfrei, ich hätte in einem Aufsatz womöglich falsch zitiert. Hier deshalb Originalbelege aus der Quelle. 1/4

Es geht um einen Text, den MdB Vera Lengsfeld im September 2003 unter dem Titel "Für einen Abschied von der Ökoideologie in der Energiepolitik!" auf ihrer Webseite veröffentlicht hat. Die Seite http://bundestag.de/mdbhome/LengsVe0/reden_lengsfeld.htm ist nicht mehr online. Hier deshalb einige Screenshots. 2/4

Ich hatte das in diesem Aufsatz zu den "Klimaskeptikern" erwähnt: https://www.pik-potsdam.de/~stefan/Publications/Other/rahmstorf_climate_sceptics_2004.pdf (laut Google Scholar 222 mal in der Fachliteratur zitiert). Als Wissenschaftler habe ich selbstverständlich den Originaltext von V. Lengsfeld vorher gelesen und archiviert. 3/4
