Campaign for real solutions, real emissions cuts and Real Zero in Europe.
🔴 69 NGOs call on the EU to deliver a Climate Law that rejects international carbon offsetting & Carbon Dioxide Removals (#CDR), commits to a full fossil fuel phase-out, and reflects Europe’s fair share of climate responsibility! 📢 Read the statement👇 realzeroeurope.org/resources/stat…

#CCS ist eine teure Scheinlösung! CCS ist eine alte Technologie, die schon immer dazu diente, fossile Industrien grün anzustreichen. Dabei wurden jedoch kaum Projekte realisiert: 88 Prozent aller weltweiten CCS-Pilotprojekte seit 1972 sind gescheitert. 👉background.tagesspiegel.de/finance/briefi…
🇬🇧 New @IEEFA_institute report: #UK #CCS plans could cost £408 bn by 2050, with £50+ bn in subsidies already pledged for just 8% of the 2050 CCS target. Read the report here: ieefa.org/resources/runa… This isn’t #ClimateAction: it’s a bottomless pit for public money.
🔴 The EU’s updated Climate Law falls short of delivering the real solutions needed to reach real zero. The new proposal rely on international carbon offsets and #CDR — approaches that undermine climate ambition and delay real emission cuts. Read more 👇 realzeroeurope.org/resources/pres…

🔎 THREAD: Unmasking the myths of #Carbon #Capture & Storage The @EU_Commission & industries keep pushing #CCS, but investigations expose its financial, technical & environmental risks. 📢 Public funds must go to proven climate solutions -not to #CostlyIllusions ! 🧵⬇️
Instead of #PhaseOutFossilFuels & reducing energy demand, the new German gov. is doubling down on dangerous distractions! 🇩🇪 aims to open the door to #CCS, #CarbonRemovals & #Offsets, jeopardizing the country’s transition to a climate safe future. READ: realzeroeurope.org/resources/blog…
