/[  Disinformation danger report//]/
*Deny, Deceive, Delay (Vol 2)*
19 JANUARY 2023
This new report from the Climate Action Against Disinformation (CAAD) 
coalition reveals the rampant disinformation present at last year’s 
COP27 climate summit in Sharm el Sheikh, and uncovers how some of the 
dangerous falsehoods spread can be tied back to fossil fuel actors. This 
is the second volume of Deny, Deceive, Delay, the first volume, which 
includes analysis on the disinformation around COP26 in 2021, can be 
accessed here.

The report reflects the efforts of the coalition’s COP27 Intelligence 
Unit, with analysts from 18 organisations and led by the Institute for 
Strategic Dialogue (ISD).

Key findings from the report include:

    -- A sample of fossil fuel sector-linked entities spent
    approximately 4 million USD on Meta for paid advertisements to
    spread false, misleading claims on climate crisis, net-zero targets
    and necessity of fossil fuels prior to and during COP27.
    --The analysis identified 3,781 ads and the majority of these were
    from Energy Citizens (a PR group of the American Petroleum
    Institute) while America’s Plastic Makers alone spent over $1
    million and the Saudi Green Initiative ran 13 ads.
    -- Analysts detected a surprising increase in content related to
    outright climate denial, including a spike on Twitter for the
    hashtag #ClimateScam since July 2022.

In addition, the report unveils the “narrative playbook” of 
disinformation claims prominent at the summit, these include:

    -- Exploiting the cost of living crisis and sidestepping concerns
    regarding the climate crisis or greenhouse gas emissions
    -- False doubt about the reliability of green technology and false
    promotion of fossil fuels as necessary and reliable
    --A misleading framing of loss and damage discussions as “climate
    reparations,”
    --A broader connection between climate skepticism or denialism and
    the current culture wars, tying climate change concerns to
    “wokeness” (and, sometimes, using wokeness as a means to argue for
    fossil fuel development via “wokewashing”).

The report follows the announcement of oil executive Sultan Ahmed Al 
Jaber as the COP28 President, and newly revealed analysis that Exxon – 
one of the world’s largest oil companies – accurately predicted climate 
projections in the 1970s, despite publicly denying the link between 
fossil fuels and planet warming for decades.

CAAD calls on the US government, EU, UN, IPCC and Big Tech companies 
companies to acknowledge the climate disinformation threat and take 
immediate steps to improve transparency and data access to quantify 
disinformation trends, to stop misleading fossil fuel advocacy in paid 
ad content, enforce policies against repeat offenders spreading 
disinformation on platforms, and to adopt a standardized and 
comprehensive definition of climate disinformation.

The demand for electric vehicles is surging in the U.S., sparked in part 
by the Biden administration’s Inflation Reduction Act and the subsidies 
it offers. But a looming supply shortage of lithium threatens to stall 
the EV transition. Stephanie Sy traveled to California's Salton Sea

*A Plan for Blowing Up U.S. Climate Politics*
An Australian consultant tells his U.S. counterparts that conservative 
voters will respond to climate messages — as long as they aren’t pushed 
by liberals.

By ALEXANDER BURNS
01/24/2023

A small band of political strategists gathered last September in a 
restaurant near Dupont Circle to meet a visitor from the other side of 
the world. Everyone at the table was immersed in the battle against 
climate change; nearly all had been involved in passing the Inflation 
Reduction Act, the clean-energy law Democrats enacted over the summer.

Their guest was Byron Fay, an Australian operative who had arrived in 
Washington with an exotic political scheme in mind. Over dinner, Fay 
shared it: American climate campaigners should enlist independent 
candidates to run for Congress in conservative areas, brandishing 
climate action as a signature issue but shedding the label of the 
Democratic Party.

Polling showed a large majority of voters care about the climate, Fay 
said, including some right-leaning voters who view Democrats with 
suspicion. Perhaps by detaching their cause from partisan politics, 
American climate advocates could gain a foothold in areas currently 
closed to them.

Fay pointed to Evan McMullin, the former intelligence officer then 
mounting an independent campaign in Utah against Sen. Mike Lee, a 
Republican. McMullin’s signature issue was defending democracy against 
the extreme right; Democrats had made way for his candidacy by declining 
to field a nominee of their own. Could there not be an Evan McMullin for 
the cause of planetary survival?

It was a provocative idea, even an outlandish one. Nothing in recent 
American history suggests a plan like that would have a fair chance of 
working.

Australian politics tells a different story...
- -
For the first time in memory, green forces in different countries have 
as much to learn from each others’ breakaway successes as they do from 
studying their noble failures. They are no longer engaged in a long, 
tired struggle to make voters care about global warming. They have real 
momentum on multiple continents, manifested in election results from 
Washington to Warringah.

Their task now is to drive the planet’s clean-energy transition faster 
and faster. It is a moment that calls for a spirit of experimentation 
and a willingness to test the assumed boundaries of electoral politics 
at home.

In some quarters that process is already underway. A political feedback 
loop has been developing between environmentalists in the United States 
and Australia, as well as the United Kingdom — a kind of informal 
distance-learning program for climate campaigners.

Watching Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign, leaders of the Australian Labor 
Party absorbed how Biden talked about climate change not just as an 
environmental crisis but also as an economic opportunity. In Australia’s 
next election, Labor leader Anthony Albanese promised to make his 
country a “clean energy superpower” and accused the right-wing Liberal 
Party of clinging to old thinking and squandering a prosperous future. 
The message helped make Albanese prime minister, with the teal 
independents playing a dramatic supporting role in the campaign.

Last October, weeks after Fay’s meeting in Washington, senior officials 
of Albanese’s Labor Party, including the national secretary Paul 
Erickson and Wayne Swan, a former deputy prime minister, visited 
Liverpool for the British Labour Party’s annual conference. Meeting with 
advisers to Keir Starmer, Britain’s opposition party leader, the 
Australians outlined their winning blueprint, including a climate 
message that put conservatives on defense and blunted the usual claims 
that progressives wanted to gut Australia’s mining economy to save the 
trees.

Caroline Spears, the San Francisco-based director of the environmental 
group Climate Cabinet, said Australia offered lessons for other 
democracies where right-wing factions reject climate science.

“We share a lot with Australia, in climate denial and the Murdoch 
media,” she said, referring to the Australian-born, U.S.-naturalized 
Rupert Murdoch, whose media empire has demonized environmentalism...- -
“It’s a much riskier proposition in the States,” said Ed Coper, an 
Australian strategist deeply involved in the teal campaigns. He said 
Australia helped show how to punish politicians for “treating climate as 
a culture-war issue.” But the independent model might be tough to 
transplant.

Then there is the matter of campaign finance. Climate 200 spent $13 
million in Australia’s elections, to explosive effect. In America that 
sum would not cover the cost of one pitched Senate race. The social 
divisions are different, too. Many of the voters who powered Australia’s 
teal surge were upscale residents of cities and suburbs, left-leaning on 
cultural and environmental issues but less so on matters of taxes and 
spending. In the United States, those people are called centrist Democrats.

In September, Fay’s idea earned a skeptical reception from American 
environmentalists. The 36-year-old Australian left undeterred; he 
understood why it might sound far-fetched to people hardened in the 
brutal machinery of American elections. Several of the Americans 
wondered if he grasped how rigidly partisan our electoral system is. 
Besides, they had just won a generational triumph in climate policy 
through their usual method of supporting Democrats. The need for a wily 
new approach was not immediately apparent.

Yet it might be a bad reflex to shrug off a political innovation in an 
advanced democracy merely because its institutions do not mirror ours.

When I spoke to Fay recently, he conceded there were enormous structural 
distinctions between Australian and American politics. Indeed, he joined 
our Zoom call from a locale that underscored our divergent 
circumstances: I was at home in America’s frigid capital, while he was 
under a startling blue sky on the coast of New South Wales. He told me 
later he went surfing afterward.

Fay insisted the detailed asymmetries of Australian and American 
politics should not obscure the big, thematic similarities. The core of 
the teal model, Fay said, is bringing the climate fight to conservative 
areas showing some signs of political restlessness. It is a way of 
testing the loyalty of right-leaning constituencies and giving a new 
option to voters who care about climate but do not identify as progressives.
- -
Of course, he said, Democrats would probably have to abandon these races 
for an independent to have a shot.

“If you can find two states and 20 House races in which this can work, 
you change the country,” Fay said. “If I was a Democratic strategist, I 
would be thinking: Where has potential for us in ten years’ time? And 
maybe now it could be competitive for an independent.”

It is a question worth engaging. If the most literal version of the teal 
strategy is ill-matched to American elections, is there a looser 
adaptation that could leave a mark?
Try this one: What if, rather than fielding a set of independents in 
affluent suburbs with the teal message — a blend of support for climate 
action, gender equality and clean government — a climate-minded American 
billionaire funded rural independents with a common platform of 
unleashing a clean energy revolution, imposing term limits on federal 
legislators and ending illegal immigration?

Would unaffiliated candidates with that profile do better or worse than 
a typical Democrat in a place like Utah or Idaho or Alaska? Who would do 
more to inflict political pain on an incumbent with reactionary views on 
climate?

The McMullin campaign last fall furnished a hint of an answer. The Utah 
independent lost to Lee by ten percentage points. But that was a leaping 
improvement on the last challenge to Lee in 2016, when the Republican 
beat his Democratic opponent by 41 points. In the midterms another 
political independent, Cara Mund, who ran for Congress in North Dakota 
on a message anchored in support for abortion rights, lost by a wide 
margin but did 10 points better than the previous Democratic nominee for 
the seat. There does seem to be some value in shedding a party label and 
brandishing a cause that confounds entrenched definitions of left and right.

That way of doing politics is alien to the United States. But with a 
consuming issue like the climate crisis, there is no reason to expect 
the cleverest political solutions will be made in America.

/[ The RIG - New Sci-Fi terror series show -- survival on a drilling 
platform -  in English - but sometimes needs captioning - amazing 
special effects. --  Grist reviews what is //a metaphor for our current 
plight//- Amazon Prime Video - ////]/
*Amazon’s ‘The Rig’ brings new energy to old eco terrors*
The binge-worthy thriller views economic anxiety and the green 
transition through the eyes of North Sea oil workers
John McCracken
Published Jan 24, 2023

What’s scarier: being stranded at sea, stuck in an ominous fog, or 
forced to confront the monstrous motives of the fossil fuel industry? 
Well thanks to The Rig, the highly bingeable new sci-fi series from 
Amazon Prime Video, you don’t have to choose.

Rather than using sci-fi tropes such as of a giant sea monster or a 
devastating natural disaster acting as a stand-in for climate change, 
The Rig is a contemporary thriller rooted in the interpersonal conflicts 
that arise when a group of people learn their future has been uprooted 
due to forces beyond their control.

The series focuses on a crew of North Sea oil workers who discover their 
offshore drilling platform is about to be decommissioned by its owner 
Pictor Energy, a (fictional) major player in the United Kingdom’s energy 
market. Soon, a mysterious fog engulfs the operation, making it 
impossible for the crew to return to the nearby Scottish mainland.

John Carpenter fans will recognize where the show must go from here, 
albeit with a Build Back Better twist: Workers begin to spiral into 
madness, be it from contact with supernatural forces buried deep beneath 
them, or upon learning that their oil industry employer is not coming to 
save them. Talk of retraining workers into green-based jobs creates 
added division between the blue- and white-collar ranks, with seasoned 
workers calling plans to send grown men back to school “embarrassing.”
Calls for industry retraining, of course, aren’t merely a work of 
fiction; they’ve been sweeping the oil and gas fields in Europe and the 
United States for years as governments and the private sector attempt to 
quell global emissions. Many oil workers know that a transition in the 
field is underway, though unlike in The Rig, a majority may already have 
skills that could translate to other energy sectors. And according to 
one survey, half of the rig workers in the North Sea, a region that 
supports over 200,000 jobs, want to be retained for work in offshore wind.

But despite calls for increased transitions to wind and other renewables 
in the region, the United Kingdom recently announced more drilling in 
the North Sea, mostly in the name of domestic energy production. Climate 
groups have called the decision unlawful, and the Scottish government 
recently announced that they do not support the expansion of oil and gas 
in the area.

Throughout writing and shooting the series, series creator David 
Macpherson said he was inspired by the decommissioning of oil rigs and 
the energy transition. He wanted the show to speak to the stories of the 
people who work on the rigs, from old rig workers to green management 
with new ideas. “As much as we want to transition away from fossil fuels 
as quickly as possible, industrial decline is a process that often isn’t 
managed very well, particularly in the United Kingdom,” Macpherson told 
Grist. “We have a long history of not looking after workers when these 
big industrial changes come about.”

Macpherson, a former environmental policy worker for the Scottish 
government and the son of a North Sea oil worker, said he wanted the 
series to act as a way of bringing the interpersonal conflict to the 
discussions of climate change and energy transition, but through an 
entertaining medium. “I’ve got a great deal of respect for the people 
who work in these places and these industries,” he said. “We get pushed 
into false dichotomies and I wanted to use the show to hopefully bring a 
bit more nuance to these discussions.”
Though the series is currently streaming globally, Macpherson said he 
wanted it to feel like a Scottish show in its origin and location, with 
North Sea oil acting as a microcosm for the rest of the world’s energy 
industry disputes. “We get a lot of post-apocalyptic dramas where the 
climate disaster has happened in the past and we’re in a sort of a 
different Earth, but I really wanted to focus on the here and now,” 
Macpherson said.

The Rig comes at a moment when talks of a global fuel transition, 
unstable economies, and energy scarcity are more prevalent than ever. 
Premiering at the beginning of the year, moments in the series nod to 
workers who have already gone through a global pandemic; some workers 
pontificate that their underwater woes may be caused by the Russian 
military as opposed to a supernatural aquatic nemesis.

At times, the heavy-handed talk of energy, climate, transition, and 
environmental harm reminds viewers of what it is, an action, sci-fi, 
thriller, trying to fit a lot of drama, knowledge, global issues, and 
supernatural elements into six episodes. From a horror perspective, 
there’s plenty of real-life source material. Oil rig workers have died, 
been stranded for days, and face grueling conditions to maintain energy 
needs and record profits for oil companies.

Throughout the series, which is growing in popularity with American 
streamers and already receiving praise from horror icons like Stephen 
King, talk of both a once and future wave hangs heavy. Even the subject 
of a changing tide causes workers to tense up and brush off the unknown 
future with playful, pointed banter of “going green.”

Taking a page out of Ridley Scott’s Alien trilogy, the real villain of 
The Rig isn’t apparent until the end, when more information about Pictor 
Energy comes to light. In a not-so-subtle nod to the Exxon internal 
memos, it turns out the company knew about the underwater organism and 
its effects the whole time.

But don’t let the spoilers deter you: Whether you’re a fan of 
supernatural suspense films, a rapid environmental news reader, or both, 
The Rig is worth a watch. The themes of climate disaster, or as the 
rig’s foreman puts it, “punching the Earth until it punches back” might 
not be new to the genre, but the series takes the audience deeper. With 
talks of renewable energy, carbon capture, and sea monsters rising from 
the deep, The Rig is able to compress energy headlines and modern sci-fi 
into a mostly digestible thriller worth exploring.

/[ before you go ice climbing ]/
*Ice climbers and mountain adventurers fear climate change creates new 
unpredictable risks*
Rock falls have climbing community on alert, perhaps more careful, but 
still keen to hit the peaks
Yvette Brend · CBC News · Posted: Jan 22, 2023

As a pro athlete, William Gadd has climbed the ice of Niagara Falls, 
Africa's Mount Kilimanjaro and Greenland glaciers. But he says now 
climbing routes are changing or crumbling.

Living in Canmore, Alta., Gadd spends more than 200 days a year in the 
wilderness, and says glacial melt, forest fires, rock falls and wilder 
weather all have a visceral effect on him.

"This is where I live and work and my office is falling apart," said Gadd.

"Imagine if you showed up in downtown Calgary, Vancouver, Toronto, and 
your office building either wasn't there or was on fire."

Climate change has already begun to change high elevation areas of the 
world. Researchers say that's expected to continue and at times be 
dramatic, as mountain faces and riverways are redrawn by the geological 
forces at play — at times creating sudden unexpected hazards for the 
people who adventure in remote mountain zones.

Extreme weather, floods, fires and landslides linked to climate change 
are shifting the way Canadian adventure sports enthusiasts approach the 
back country — as risks get harder to predict.

"The hard part for me now is figuring out what the new risks are," said 
Gadd.

The 'glue' holding rock walls together is melting
Geomorphologist Dan Shugar from the University of Calgary confirms 
Gadd's observations. He says that as glaciers along steep rock walls 
thaw, the stuff that cements much of the high mountain areas together 
turns to liquid.

"Frozen water or ice that's contained in the rock permanently, begins to 
melt," explained Shugar.

"The glue that's holding the cracked rock together is then liquid water. 
So those rocks can fall apart."

Large rockfall found on Snowpatch Spire in southeast B.C. will change 
park forever: climber
VIDEORock slides that shook Squamish linked to climate change, expert says
Glaciated rock has already been under excruciating pressures from the 
grinding and weight of ice over time. As that ice retreats — releasing 
its grip on the rock — the pressure release creates cracks, layering the 
rock with fault lines parallel to the surface like the layers of an onion.

When this rock is then subsequently frozen, thawed, flooded or hit with 
summer heat, this spreads cracks which then join, causing chunks to 
sometimes shear off.

Climate change researchers say this is just one of the processes 
beginning to cause massive change in mountain areas.

A study published this month by Shugar and John Clague of Simon Fraser 
University forecasts a reshaping of mountain faces and river routes in 
more dramatic shifts than have been seen in 11,700 years, since woolly 
mammoths roamed the earth.

They outline change already occurring in the Yukon and British Columbia. 
Their paper was inspired after observing how the Kaskawulsh Glacier, one 
of the largest in the St. Elias Range, began to divert the Ä'äy Chú 
(formerly known as Slims River), the Alsek and Yukon Rivers.

They also show similar shifts happening near the Bering, Grand Pacific 
and Melbern glaciers along the Alaska/Yukon border. They say large river 
systems will continue to reorganize as glaciers vanish and allow them to 
flow in more direct routes to the sea — changing water paths, altering 
ecosystms and even creating more coastal fjords.

Shughar, 43, says he's expecting a lot of change to iconic spots in his 
life. He says even the signature turquoise colour of Alberta's lakes — 
like Peyto and Moraine — may change.

"I expect I'll still see glaciated mountains as an old man. But they'll 
be different."

Peyto Lake in Alberta's Banff National Park. As climate change reshapes 
mountains, the iconic turquoise of lakes like this may change, says 
geologist Dan Shugar.
Uptick of fatal slides worldwide
Internationally, studies show rock-slope failures already accelerating.

Slumping slopes have killed people in Europe and Asia, where slides have 
been triggered by monsoons and cyclones. In July 2022, seven people were 
killed when an Alpine glacier collapsed in the northern Italian Alps. 
Video showed a cascade of snow, ice and rock down the slopes of 
Marmolada, the highest Dolomite peak.

The Himalayan expedition gateway town of Joshimath is sinking where two 
valleys meet. More than 670 buildings in the 20,000-person community in 
northern India have formed cracks, according to the BBC.

A 3rd landslide could happen at any time on Joffre Peak, scientist says
1 Nelson police officer dead, 1 critically injured in avalanche near Kaslo
Back in Canada, slides have also been on the rise. But, for the most 
part, they have happened in remote areas with few people. "It's still 
not a huge risk when you consider the total area of landscape is still 
pretty low," said Shugar.

Paul Adam, manager of citizen science for the Centre for Natural Hazards 
Research at Simon Fraser University, says climate change is playing a 
role in recent slide events.

"It's getting wetter, getting drier, it's getting hotter, it's getting 
colder. It definitely plays a role," said Adam, a 40-year climber who 
says he will avoid certain areas, but won't stop climbing.

"[Slides] are occurring more often. You require a bit more care. But I 
wouldn't say it's making any riskier on a day-to-day basis."

Climbing community rocked by recent rock falls
But recent slides that erased popular climbs have shaken the climbing 
community.

In late December, guide James Madden noticed a cloud of dust as he was 
scoping weather conditions in the Purcell Mountains near Snowpatch 
Spire, a 3,000-metre-high rock tower in Bugaboo Provincial Park in 
southeast B.C.

The slide sheered off a mass of rock and turned one of the world's 
hardest alpine climbs into a 50-thousand-cubic-metre rubble pile.

"This really has changed the face, literally the rock face, of that 
spot," said Shugar.

While this event was relatively small, and hurt nobody, other slides 
have been fatal, like one that hit a highway during the November floods 
of 2021 when a debris slide swept across Highway 99, killing five people 
southwest of Lillooet.

A year before that a catastrophic slide on the central coast of B.C. in 
November 2020 touched off a tsunami in a glacial lake that devastated 
Elliot Creek and Southgate River with a slide of timber, mud and rock.

Helicopter pilot Bastian Fleury flew to B.C.'s Southgate River on Dec. 
10, 2020, to investigate why trees and logs were floating down the 
nearby Bute Inlet. The pilot found evidence of a massive landslide that 
had carved the creek bed into a canyon.
Researchers determined that the slide hit a glacial lake with such force 
it triggered a 100-metre-high wave that devastated a 10-kilometre 
stretch of river and touched off a massive underwater avalanche.

In 2019, east of Pemberton, B.C., a large chunk of Joffre Peak split 
off, spreading a debris pile over five kilometres.

Mountaineer Drew Brayshaw, a hydrologist and geoscientist with Statlu 
Environmental Consulting, fears forest fires more than rockfall.

He's spent years studying the changing climate, watching glaciers 
retreat and worked as an undergraduate with geohazard researcher 
Matthias Jakob, assessing the massive Mount Meager slide in 2010. 
Brayshaw lost his mentor in a paragliding accident.

Brayshaw says it's important to gauge risks, but not let them paralyze 
you; perhaps don't pose for selfies beneath a large rock that could 
fall. But he points out that driving a car is also dangerous.

"I don't want to scare people away. I love the outdoors."

Carbon Capture vs Removal
Jan 24, 2023
"An Open Sewer" that's how Former Vice President Al Gore, at the recent 
World Economic Forum in Davos said that we're treating the atmosphere 
given the amount of CO2 we're dumping in it. But what if we could take 
back the Carbon from the atmosphere and store it or, even better, remove 
it completely? Could that fix the Climate Crisis and get us to Net Zero? 
That's the hope of Carbon Capture and Storage and Carbon Dioxide Removal 
Companies and, perhaps unsurprisingly, Oil Companies. So we thought it 
was time to find out whether CCS and CDR is an effective solution, or an 
excuse to continue burning fossil fuels or even, a necessary sidekick to 
renewable energy. Join Helen as she investigates this contentious topic.
