Hi @ll, a friend of mine is a scientist and has written many papers. Each of these papers has a lot of underlying video data (which show each experiment in detail). For example, one paper is easily 200 GB of video data. Now, my friend is looking for a free public archive to make this data publicly available, also for archiving purposes. The best recommendations he has received was to upload everything to Youtube, but I said - don't. I would like to recommend him a PeerTube instance for that but I have no clue which instance would agree to that much video data for archiving purposes. Might you have an idea? Peace out, T

"Die Unionsfraktion im Bundestag hat sich vorgenommen, das im Jahr 2035 greifende Verbot zu kippen und will dazu einen Antrag zu „technologieoffenem Klimaschutz“ in das Parlament einbringen. Darin schlagen CDU und CSU einen Maßnahmenkatalog für „klimafreundliche Mobilität“ vor, der darauf zielt, Autos mit herkömmlichen Verbrennermotoren auch nach 2035 zuzulassen, wenn sie mit klimaneutralen synthetischen Kraftstoffen, sogenannten E-Fuels, betrieben werden.[...]"

"Die Europawahl habe gezeigt: „Die Bürger wollen kein Verbot des Verbrennungsmotors!“, sagt der CDU-Verkehrspolitiker und Initiator des Antrags, Christoph Ploß."

Findet ihr das auch? Ich finde das Schwachsinn.

Hallo zusammen,

am Sonntag ist ja Europawahl. Wie wohl inzwischen jeder Depp sehen kann, fliegt uns das Klima um die Ohren, daher ist meine 1. Priorität, mein Kreuz bei einer Partei zu setzen, die sich mit aller Macht für Klimaschutz einsetzt.

Nun frage ich mich, bei welcher der 3 "Klimaparteien" ich das Kreuz setzen sollte:

[ ] die Grünen

[ ] Klimaliste

[ ] Letzte Generation

Augenscheinlich "klimaliebende" Parteien wie Volt, die mit neoliberalem FDP-Sprech ankommen und die Atomkraft zurück wollen, oder die PIRATEN, welche eher Datenschutzspezis und keine Klimaspezis sind, lasse ich hier mal aus der Wahl raus.

Welche der drei genannten Parteien würde eurer Meinung nach den maximalen Impact in Bezug auf Klimaschutz haben?

Danke für eure Meinung!

Germany is feeling one of the first consequences of climate change - regular catastrophic floodings. One of the last floodings was the one in Ahrtal - here's a report about that one: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jul/13/floods-then-and-now-photographs-germany-ahr-valley-flooding-disaster-july-2021

Hopefully events like these make more people think twice about which party to vote for!

Hi everyone,

would anyone know what kind of device that is? Is it an AC remote? A humidity sensor? An air quality measurement? Or just a digital temperature sensor?

The picture is from the wall of a newly built house in Arkansas, so I suspect it has to do something with "smart home".

Thanks for your help!

Cheers, Temperche

I found that this video gives a nice overview about the current state of recycling opportunities for older solar panels. Things are looking pretty good!

This German video showcases nicely the consequences of climate change. Why people don't realize worldwide that we need to reduce CO2 NOW to prevent it from getting even worse is an open question.

Just 10 years ago, landlords could ban you from putting solar cells on your balcony because it makes their building look "messy". Now Germany is really pushing forward to let everybody put solar modules on their balcony with these new laws. How is legalization of balcony solar cells in your country? Is setting up solar modules on your balcony easy or difficult law-wise?

Although Germany has massively invested into green energy, the issue is that the electric network has not been sufficiently expanded. This means that solar and wind energy has to be turned off to not overload the network. However, the owners of solar/wind energy still get paid. This means that in Germany, the price of energy will only make up ~50% of the bill. The other 50% are payments for unused energy (to not overload the network) and costs for expanding the electric network (because some regions such as Bavaria refuse to have wind turbines or solar panels "because they look ugly", but still need electric). Lesson: When implementing renewable energy in the rest of the world, we have to keep in mind that we have to massively invest into the electric network as well or it won't work.
