This statement is frivolous. The US has never been a State party to the Rome statue, it withdrew it's signature in 2002 and did not ratify the treaty.

The reality is that renewables and electrification are our greatest assets for energy security and indeed that is the case for many of the world's nations reliant on imports which often come from unsavoury places.

The've officially done it – the centre-right EPP has voted with the far-right to cut protections for human rights & nature, all to boost corporate profits
This is an extremely worrying sign for upcoming proposals to strip away more protections for climate, labour rights, privacy and more

The adopted omnibus is pure deregulation on the EU's human rights, environmental and climate law.
Brought to you by the center right EPP turning away from pro democratic parties and working with the far right.

BTW, a 2021 Carnie Mellon study found that ridehail's arrival in a new city *increases* car ownership.
The reason: Few residents ditch their car, while some become ridehail drivers and buy vehicles.

The land and ocean CO₂ sink are 25% and 7% smaller, respectively, than they would have been without the effects of climate change and variability, on average for the 2015-2024 period.
Combined, this is equivalent to the total sink (land and ocean) being nearly 20% smaller than otherwise.
