Hello, I'm a total amateur in econometrics and data analysis and I really need help for an assignment. I'm trying to prove the impact of renewable energy on the economy in the EU but I'm at a total loss of ways to do that. I was thinking of clusterizing the countries and analyse each cluster using a VAR model to create a forecast but ADF tests show the time series are not stationary even after differenciating. For context I had to choose my own variables( Energy dependency, Energy productivity, Final Energy Consumption, Nominal GDP, Greenhouse gas emissions and share of renewable energy) and time period (2005-2022). I don't really know what kinds of analyses or tests should I run. I'd appreciate any radical suggestions on how to approach my problem.

batteries are made from a combination of materials, including:

1. Lithium (Li)
   
2. Nickel (Ni)
   
3. Cobalt (Co)
   
4. Graphite (C)
   
5. Manganese (Mn)
   
6. Copper (Cu)
   
7. Aluminum (Al)
   

The extraction and processing of these materials can have environmental impacts, including:

1. Water pollution: Mining and processing can contaminate water sources.
   
2. Land degradation: Mining can lead to deforestation and habitat destruction.
   
3. Energy consumption: Extracting and processing materials requires significant energy.
   
4. Greenhouse gas emissions: Mining, transportation, and manufacturing contribute to emissions.
   
5. Human rights concerns: Mining operations have been linked to labor exploitation and community displacement.
   

To mitigate these impacts, Tesla and its suppliers are implementing sustainable practices, such as:

1. Responsible sourcing: Ensuring materials are extracted and processed ethically.
   
2. Recycling: Closing the loop by reusing materials from recycled batteries.
   
3. Energy efficiency: Improving manufacturing processes to reduce energy consumption.
   
4. Renewable energy: Transitioning to renewable energy sources for manufacturing and charging.
   
5. Supply chain transparency: Disclosing the origin and movement of materials.
   

Tesla continues to innovate and improve its sustainability practices, aiming to minimize environmental impacts while accelerating the transition to renewable energy.

Here's a straightforward mathematical equation for mitigating the world's greenhouse gas emissions, supported by scientific evidence:
Divide the current global population by two. Allocate half of this population to become organic farmers.
India, with a population of approximately 1.4 billion, has showcased to the world an extraordinary example of efficient food production and land utilization. By effectively managing its resources, India has demonstrated that 700 million individuals can cultivate enough food to sustain the entire population. Notably, India has not only achieved food self-sufficiency but has also undertaken an ambitious endeavor by converting the Thar Desert into arable farmland. This transformation stands as a testament to India's ingenuity and determination in utilizing even the most challenging terrains for agricultural productivity.
Central to India's success story is the implementation of soil carbon sequestration techniques. Through proper soil management practices, India has significantly enhanced soil organic carbon content across its farmlands. These practices, including the utilization of green manure, biological pest control, and sustainable water optimization, have not only improved soil fertility but have also enabled farmland to serve as a crucial carbon sink. Research indicates that farmland has the capacity to sequester up to 1.2 billion tons of carbon, effectively offsetting greenhouse gas emissions.
In light of these compelling facts, it is evident that India has set a precedent for sustainable agricultural practices and environmental conservation on a monumental scale. The achievements of India serve as a beacon of hope and inspiration for nations worldwide, demonstrating that with dedication and innovation, it is possible to reconcile food security with environmental sustainability.

In most cases when sales of a product have plateaued, market saturation is often used. That suggests there is more supply than demand for a given product. Western marketplaces are bursting with work options and ways to make money. Today’s young people must act smart and move quick to locate new employment opportunities.In most cases when sales of a product have plateaued, market saturation is often used. That suggests there is more supply than demand for a given product. Western marketplaces are bursting with work options and ways to make money. Today’s young people must act smart and move quick to locate new employment opportunities.

Suppose one wants to be successful in this field, they should focus on expanding markets, developing innovative technology, and uncovering undiscovered company prospects in highly profitable niche industries, among other things (Agarwal et al, 6). Businesses in crowded markets may cut the price of their products to gain a larger market share. As a result, businesses are always undercutting each other to attract new customers. Cost-cutting is a common strategy for firms when profits are stagnant (Simonazzi et al., 17). Unnecessary or avoidable cost savings are welcome, but they don’t address the underlying issue.

Where do I pay my taxes if I am a digital nomad?

According to the recent reports, westerners already pay too many taxes in a number of business entities. Due to the high cost of living in their new home nation, one out of every five American ex-pats is contemplating renunciation of their citizenship. Senators are concerned about how to pay for the deficit, and Senate rules prohibit raising long-term deficits through reconciliation bills. Consequently, more money will be available to Congress if the budget reconciliation plan generates more revenue. The United States will not make significant investments unless Congress makes significant adjustments to the tax structure (Michel et al., 89). Increased budget deficits could slow the long-term growth of the economy. In addition private investment or borrowing from other countries is used to pay for government borrowing when the economy is close to capacity (Chen et al.440). When a person is experiencing difficulties, it might harm their future well-being. To put it another way, the long-term impacts of tax policy are influenced by its incentives and its budgetary implications.
Digital nomads have historically been seen as a threat in some places, but several countries around the world are now actively seeking to attract this growing digital population through new remote work visas.
All this converges into a superstorm, and more and more people will opt for digital nomad opportunities. While tax regulations can vary significantly depending on where you are in the world, general guidelines may be helpful to for those seeking information on paying taxes as a digital nomad. Naturally, tax filing is done with the country of tax residence as determined by the place of a principal residence. Digital nomads, however, may encounter a variety of additional layers of tax residence due to their physical presence in other countries during a tax year. In addition, state/province/territory and local taxes may also apply.

Cancel culture and family safety issues

The cancellation culture has a lot to do with social media and if it hadn’t been for social media, pop culture would not have gotten the attention it has in the previous decade. In most case the cultures are frequently canceled by unfollowing, blocking, and publicly criticizing an organization or individual on social media. Due to their large social media followings, celebrity cancellations often garner much media attention. As a result of using social media to communicate with celebrities, many teenagers desire to emulate their peers. Most adolescent cancel culture is carried out online, primarily via comments and unfollows (Yar et al., 80). This can happen in the real world, such as at school or in extracurricular activities. They are often rejected, mocked, and disregarded by their peers, who have had their activities canceled. Most Western workers are experiencing job instability due to the growth of a “cancel culture” in the workplace (Dąbrowska-Kłosińska, 30). This can be a terrific method for teenagers to learn and grow, as their peers may call them out for using insulting words or acting inappropriately.

Investment analysis and forecasting as part of the individual development strategy

To produce an accurate financial projection, one must consider both general macroeconomic trends and your organization’s specific circumstances. Predicting how much money a company will generate and spend in the future is known as financial forecasting. A full estimate contains both short-term and long-term revenue estimates and costs that aren’t anticipated at the time of the estimate (Poorter et al.120). People who know how to create models are critical to financial forecasting firms that do a good job. Some people have extensive knowledge of the organization, its sectors, and the communities it serves to support them along the way. Similarly, data collection and analysis are critical to the financial forecasting process and the use of the software.

Scenario planning and personal life choices

Global events like COVID 19, inflation, or food crisis can impact our life choices a lot. To avoid reacting to events, we need to think about what might happen in the future. Scenario planning helps us do this. Scenario planning allows business leaders to consider what might happen, reflect on past actions, and devise strategies for positive and poor outcomes. Scenario planning is more than just a means to think about the future when it comes to financial planning. It can assist one in determining how much money you’ll make, how much money you’ll have, and how to manage hazards. Early warning indications of difficulties can be spotted by leaders who make their organizations aware of potential issues (MacKenzie et al.900). One can use scenario planning papers to quickly run through numerous scenarios and figure out the best course of action in the event of a crisis. Making a strategy in the event of an emergency is essential. Having a strategy in place is critical in the event of a product going viral and seeing a threefold increase in demand in a single day.

Building the right skills for the jobs of the future

To be eligible for future employment, one must possess the abilities that will be most in demand. Coding has taken off swiftly as one of the most sought-after skills. Almost any industry can benefit from the versatility and scalability of computer languages. People believe that coding is so prevalent in the workplace that it will soon become an essential skill for everyone. Learning to code is a difficult task. Learning how to code and the language you choose impacts how long it takes to do so (Moldoveanu et al.40). Before you begin learning how to code, look at several computer languages and determine which ones are relevant to your industry. Many people begin by studying HTML or JavaScript when learning a new language. After you’ve mastered the fundamentals, you can move to more popular and widely used languages like Python. It is possible to store and manage corporate data in the cloud while allowing employees to work from home.

Riding on global trends of tomorrow

By adopting an agile culture, knowing how to cope with ambiguity, pushing outside our comfort zones, and quickly adjusting to new trends, among other things, we achieve success. We all agree that the weather has gotten more erratic in the last few decades. Crop failure, sea-level rise, and water scarcity are exacerbated by global warming. Malaria and dengue fever epidemics are also on the rise due to the influx of people from developing countries. According to the Kyoto Protocol, 175 countries have agreed to begin the long process of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by signing it (Penalva et al., 340). According to business leaders worldwide, firms have a larger role in society and should do more than merely follow the law to reduce pollution. According to a McKinsey survey, this is the case. The “triple bottom line” refers to a company’s efforts to benefit its shareholders and its workers and the environment. Increasing numbers of businesses are waking up to the need to lower their carbon footprints, produce ecologically friendly products, and operate their operations for more than just quarterly profits.

"令人擔憂的數字：斯洛維尼亞和馬耳他名列黑名單之首
去年最後一個季度，斯洛維尼亞是排放量增加最大的國家之一。根據統計，斯洛維尼亞和馬耳他表現不佳。
2023年最後一個季度，歐盟溫室氣體排放總量為8.97億噸二氧化碳當量，比去年同期減少4%。歐洲統計局歐盟統計局本周宣布，斯洛維尼亞也是排放量增幅最大的國家之一，增幅達 5.6%。
斯洛維尼亞和馬耳他表現不佳
歐盟統計局指出，去年最後一個季度，排放量下降伴隨著經濟成長放緩，歐盟成員國的國內生產毛額（GDP）年增了0.2%。
2023 年 10 月至 12 月期間對溫室氣體排放量下降貢獻最大的經濟部門是電力和天然氣供應以及製造業。第一個案例的排放量較去年同期下降了 17.2%，第二個案例的排放量較去年同期下降了 3.1%。在運輸和倉儲服務領域，下降了百分之二。雖然家庭排放量保持穩定，但供水和廢物管理（增長 2.8％）、採礦業（增長 1.5％）和農業（增長 1.2％）的排放量有所增加。
與去年同期相比，多達22個歐盟成員國的溫室氣體排放量有所下降。降幅最大的是愛沙尼亞，排放量減少了 23%。保加利亞（-17%）和芬蘭（-9.0%）緊隨其後。
在減少排放的 22 個歐盟成員國中，有 10 個國家的 GDP 也下降（愛沙尼亞、芬蘭、瑞典、德國、奧地利、愛爾蘭、拉脫維亞、立陶宛、荷蘭和盧森堡）。匈牙利在減少排放的同時設法將GDP 保持在同一水平，而其他11 個國家（保加利亞、比利時、捷克共和國、丹麥、義大利、西班牙、法國、波蘭、葡萄牙、羅馬尼亞和克羅埃西亞）則在減少溫室氣體排放的同時增加了GDP 。
2023 年最後一季的排放量較去年同期成長的國家包括馬耳他（+7.7%）、斯洛維尼亞（+5.6%）、塞浦路斯（+2.3%）、斯洛伐克（+1.7%）和希臘（+1.7%）。 %）。據統計人員稱，五個國家的GDP也成長：馬耳他（+4.3%）、斯洛維尼亞（+2.2%）、塞浦路斯（+2.1%）、斯洛伐克（+2.2%）和希臘（+1.1%）。

"Worrying numbers: Slovenia and Malta at the top of the black list
In the last quarter of last year, Slovenia was among the countries with the largest increase in emissions. According to the statistics, Slovenia and Malta stand out negatively.
Greenhouse gas emissions in the EU totaled 897 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in the last quarter of 2023, which is four percent less than in the same period last year. Slovenia was also among the countries with the largest increase in emissions, with 5.6 percent, the European statistical office Eurostat announced this week.
Slovenia and Malta stand out negatively
In the last quarter of last year, the drop in emissions was accompanied by lower economic growth, as during this period the gross domestic product (GDP) in EU member states increased by 0.2 percent year-on-year, Eurostat points out.
Among the economic sectors that contributed the most to the drop in greenhouse gas emissions between October and December 2023 were electricity and gas supply and manufacturing. In the case of the first, emissions decreased by 17.2 percent year-on-year, and in the case of the second by 3.1 percent. In the transport and storage services sector, they decreased by two percent. While household emissions remained stable, they increased in water supply and waste management (up 2.8 percent), mining (up 1.5 percent) and agriculture (up 1.2 percent).
In a year-on-year comparison, as many as 22 EU member states recorded a drop in greenhouse gas emissions. The biggest drop was in Estonia, which generated 23 percent less emissions. Bulgaria (-17 percent) and Finland (-9.0 percent) followed.
Among the 22 EU member states that reduced emissions, ten also recorded a fall in GDP (Estonia, Finland, Sweden, Germany, Austria, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands and Luxembourg). While Hungary managed to keep GDP at the same level while reducing emissions, the other 11 countries (Bulgaria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Italy, Spain, France, Poland, Portugal, Romania and Croatia) reduced greenhouse gas emissions while simultaneously increasing GDP .
Growth in emissions in the last quarter of 2023 on a year-on-year basis was recorded by Malta (+7.7 percent), Slovenia (+5.6 percent), Cyprus (+2.3 percent), Slovakia (+1.7 percent) and Greece (+ 0.3 percent). According to statisticians, five countries also recorded GDP growth: Malta (+4.3 percent), Slovenia (+2.2 percent), Cyprus (+2.1 percent), Slovakia (+2.2 percent) and Greece (+ 1.1 percent).

"चिंताजनक आंकड़े: स्लोवेनिया और माल्टा काली सूची में शीर्ष पर हैं
पिछले वर्ष की अंतिम तिमाही में स्लोवेनिया उत्सर्जन में सबसे अधिक वृद्धि वाले देशों में से एक था। आँकड़ों के अनुसार, स्लोवेनिया और माल्टा नकारात्मक रूप से खड़े हैं।
यूरोपीय संघ में ग्रीनहाउस गैस उत्सर्जन 2023 की अंतिम तिमाही में कुल 897 मिलियन टन कार्बन डाइऑक्साइड के बराबर था, जो पिछले वर्ष की समान अवधि की तुलना में चार प्रतिशत कम है। यूरोपीय सांख्यिकी कार्यालय यूरोस्टेट ने इस सप्ताह घोषणा की कि उत्सर्जन में 5.6 प्रतिशत के साथ सबसे अधिक वृद्धि वाले देशों में स्लोवेनिया भी शामिल है।
स्लोवेनिया और माल्टा नकारात्मक रूप से सामने हैं
यूरोस्टेट बताते हैं कि पिछले साल की आखिरी तिमाही में, उत्सर्जन में गिरावट के साथ-साथ कम आर्थिक विकास भी हुआ था, क्योंकि इस अवधि के दौरान यूरोपीय संघ के सदस्य देशों में सकल घरेलू उत्पाद (जीडीपी) में साल-दर-साल 0.2 प्रतिशत की वृद्धि हुई थी।
अक्टूबर और दिसंबर 2023 के बीच ग्रीनहाउस गैस उत्सर्जन में गिरावट में सबसे अधिक योगदान देने वाले आर्थिक क्षेत्रों में बिजली और गैस आपूर्ति और विनिर्माण शामिल थे। पहले के मामले में, उत्सर्जन में साल-दर-साल 17.2 प्रतिशत की कमी आई, और दूसरे के मामले में 3.1 प्रतिशत की कमी आई। परिवहन एवं भंडारण सेवा क्षेत्र में इनमें दो प्रतिशत की कमी आयी। जबकि घरेलू उत्सर्जन स्थिर रहा, जल आपूर्ति और अपशिष्ट प्रबंधन (2.8 प्रतिशत ऊपर), खनन (1.5 प्रतिशत ऊपर) और कृषि (1.2 प्रतिशत ऊपर) में वृद्धि हुई।
साल-दर-साल तुलना में, 22 यूरोपीय संघ के सदस्य देशों ने ग्रीनहाउस गैस उत्सर्जन में गिरावट दर्ज की। सबसे बड़ी गिरावट एस्टोनिया में थी, जहां 23 प्रतिशत कम उत्सर्जन उत्पन्न हुआ। इसके बाद बुल्गारिया (-17 प्रतिशत) और फिनलैंड (-9.0 प्रतिशत) रहे।
उत्सर्जन कम करने वाले 22 यूरोपीय संघ के सदस्य देशों में से दस (एस्टोनिया, फिनलैंड, स्वीडन, जर्मनी, ऑस्ट्रिया, आयरलैंड, लातविया, लिथुआनिया, नीदरलैंड और लक्ज़मबर्ग) में भी जीडीपी में गिरावट दर्ज की गई। जबकि हंगरी उत्सर्जन को कम करते हुए सकल घरेलू उत्पाद को समान स्तर पर रखने में कामयाब रहा, अन्य 11 देशों (बुल्गारिया, बेल्जियम, चेक गणराज्य, डेनमार्क, इटली, स्पेन, फ्रांस, पोलैंड, पुर्तगाल, रोमानिया और क्रोएशिया) ने सकल घरेलू उत्पाद में वृद्धि के साथ-साथ ग्रीनहाउस गैस उत्सर्जन को कम किया। .
वर्ष-दर-वर्ष आधार पर 2023 की अंतिम तिमाही में उत्सर्जन में वृद्धि माल्टा (+7.7 प्रतिशत), स्लोवेनिया (+5.6 प्रतिशत), साइप्रस (+2.3 प्रतिशत), स्लोवाकिया (+1.7 प्रतिशत) और ग्रीस द्वारा दर्ज की गई। + 0.3 प्रतिशत)। सांख्यिकीविदों के अनुसार, पाँच देशों ने भी सकल घरेलू उत्पाद की वृद्धि दर्ज की: माल्टा (+4.3 प्रतिशत), स्लोवेनिया (+2.2 प्रतिशत), साइप्रस (+2.1 प्रतिशत), स्लोवाकिया (+2.2 प्रतिशत) और ग्रीस (+ 1.1 प्रतिशत)।

"Cifras preocupantes: Eslovenia y Malta encabezan la lista negra
En el último trimestre del año pasado, Eslovenia estuvo entre los países con mayor aumento de emisiones. Según las estadísticas, Eslovenia y Malta destacan negativamente.
Las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero en la UE ascendieron a 897 millones de toneladas de dióxido de carbono equivalente en el último trimestre de 2023, un cuatro por ciento menos que en el mismo período del año pasado. Eslovenia también se encuentra entre los países con el mayor aumento de emisiones, con un 5,6 por ciento, según anunció esta semana la oficina europea de estadística, Eurostat.
Eslovenia y Malta destacan negativamente
En el último trimestre del año pasado, la caída de las emisiones estuvo acompañada de un menor crecimiento económico, ya que durante este período el producto interior bruto (PIB) de los Estados miembros de la UE aumentó un 0,2 por ciento interanual, señala Eurostat.
Entre los sectores económicos que más contribuyeron a la caída de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero entre octubre y diciembre de 2023 se encuentran el suministro y la manufactura de electricidad y gas. En el caso del primero, las emisiones disminuyeron un 17,2 por ciento interanual, y en el caso del segundo un 3,1 por ciento. En el sector de servicios de transporte y almacenamiento, disminuyeron un dos por ciento. Si bien las emisiones de los hogares se mantuvieron estables, aumentaron en el suministro de agua y la gestión de residuos (un 2,8 por ciento más), la minería (un 1,5 por ciento más) y la agricultura (un 1,2 por ciento más).
En una comparación interanual, hasta 22 estados miembros de la UE registraron una caída en las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero. La mayor caída se produjo en Estonia, que generó un 23 por ciento menos de emisiones. Le siguieron Bulgaria (-17 por ciento) y Finlandia (-9,0 por ciento).
Entre los 22 Estados miembros de la UE que redujeron sus emisiones, diez también registraron una caída del PIB (Estonia, Finlandia, Suecia, Alemania, Austria, Irlanda, Letonia, Lituania, Países Bajos y Luxemburgo).

"Chiffres inquiétants : la Slovénie et Malte en tête de la liste noire
Au cours du dernier trimestre de l’année dernière, la Slovénie figurait parmi les pays où les émissions ont le plus augmenté. Selon les statistiques, la Slovénie et Malte se démarquent négativement.
Les émissions de gaz à effet de serre dans l'UE ont totalisé 897 millions de tonnes d'équivalent dioxyde de carbone au dernier trimestre 2023, soit 4 % de moins qu'à la même période l'année dernière. La Slovénie fait également partie des pays où les émissions ont le plus augmenté, avec 5,6 pour cent, a annoncé cette semaine l'Office européen des statistiques, Eurostat.
La Slovénie et Malte se démarquent négativement
Au cours du dernier trimestre de l'année dernière, la baisse des émissions s'est accompagnée d'un ralentissement de la croissance économique, car au cours de cette période, le produit intérieur brut (PIB) des États membres de l'UE a augmenté de 0,2 % sur un an, souligne Eurostat.
Parmi les secteurs économiques qui ont le plus contribué à la baisse des émissions de gaz à effet de serre entre octobre et décembre 2023 figurent la fourniture d’électricité et de gaz et l’industrie manufacturière. Dans le cas du premier, les émissions ont diminué de 17,2 pour cent sur un an et dans le cas du second de 3,1 pour cent. Dans le secteur des services de transport et de stockage, ils ont diminué de 2 pour cent. Si les émissions des ménages sont restées stables, elles ont augmenté dans l'approvisionnement en eau et la gestion des déchets (en hausse de 2,8 pour cent), l'exploitation minière (en hausse de 1,5 pour cent) et l'agriculture (en hausse de 1,2 pour cent).
En comparaison annuelle, pas moins de 22 États membres de l'UE ont enregistré une baisse de leurs émissions de gaz à effet de serre. La plus forte baisse a été enregistrée en Estonie, qui a généré 23 pour cent d'émissions en moins. La Bulgarie (-17 pour cent) et la Finlande (-9,0 pour cent) ont suivi.
Parmi les 22 États membres de l’UE qui ont réduit leurs émissions, dix ont également enregistré une baisse de leur PIB (Estonie, Finlande, Suède, Allemagne, Autriche, Irlande, Lettonie, Lituanie, Pays-Bas et Luxembourg). Alors que la Hongrie a réussi à maintenir son PIB au même niveau tout en réduisant ses émissions, les 11 autres pays (Bulgarie, Belgique, République tchèque, Danemark, Italie, Espagne, France, Pologne, Portugal, Roumanie et Croatie) ont réduit leurs émissions de gaz à effet de serre tout en augmentant leur PIB. .
La croissance des émissions au dernier trimestre 2023 sur une base annuelle a été enregistrée par Malte (+7,7 %), la Slovénie (+5,6 %), Chypre (+2,3 %), la Slovaquie (+1,7 %) et la Grèce ( + 0,3 pour cent). Selon les statisticiens, cinq pays ont également enregistré une croissance de leur PIB : Malte (+4,3 %), la Slovénie (+2,2 %), Chypre (+2,1 %), la Slovaquie (+2,2 %) et la Grèce (+1,1 %).

"Besorgniserregende Zahlen: Slowenien und Malta stehen ganz oben auf der schwarzen Liste
Im letzten Quartal des vergangenen Jahres gehörte Slowenien zu den Ländern mit dem größten Anstieg der Emissionen. Laut Statistik fallen Slowenien und Malta negativ auf.
Die Treibhausgasemissionen in der EU beliefen sich im letzten Quartal 2023 auf 897 Millionen Tonnen Kohlendioxidäquivalent, das sind vier Prozent weniger als im Vorjahreszeitraum. Auch Slowenien gehörte mit 5,6 Prozent zu den Ländern mit dem größten Anstieg der Emissionen, wie das europäische Statistikamt Eurostat diese Woche mitteilte.
Slowenien und Malta fallen negativ auf
Im letzten Quartal des vergangenen Jahres ging der Rückgang der Emissionen mit einem geringeren Wirtschaftswachstum einher, da das Bruttoinlandsprodukt (BIP) in den EU-Mitgliedsstaaten in diesem Zeitraum im Jahresvergleich um 0,2 Prozent gestiegen sei, betont Eurostat.
Zu den Wirtschaftssektoren, die zwischen Oktober und Dezember 2023 am meisten zum Rückgang der Treibhausgasemissionen beigetragen haben, gehörten die Strom- und Gasversorgung sowie das verarbeitende Gewerbe. Im ersten Fall gingen die Emissionen im Vergleich zum Vorjahr um 17,2 Prozent zurück, im zweiten Fall um 3,1 Prozent. Im Bereich Transport- und Lagerdienstleistungen gingen sie um zwei Prozent zurück. Während die Emissionen der Haushalte stabil blieben, stiegen sie in der Wasserversorgung und Abfallwirtschaft (plus 2,8 Prozent), im Bergbau (plus 1,5 Prozent) und in der Landwirtschaft (plus 1,2 Prozent).
Im Vorjahresvergleich verzeichneten sogar 22 EU-Mitgliedsstaaten einen Rückgang der Treibhausgasemissionen. Der größte Rückgang war in Estland zu verzeichnen, das 23 Prozent weniger Emissionen verursachte. Es folgten Bulgarien (-17 Prozent) und Finnland (-9,0 Prozent).
Von den 22 EU-Mitgliedstaaten, die ihre Emissionen reduzierten, verzeichneten zehn auch einen Rückgang des BIP (Estland, Finnland, Schweden, Deutschland, Österreich, Irland, Lettland, Litauen, die Niederlande und Luxemburg). Während es Ungarn gelang, das BIP auf dem gleichen Niveau zu halten und gleichzeitig die Emissionen zu reduzieren, konnten die anderen elf Länder (Bulgarien, Belgien, die Tschechische Republik, Dänemark, Italien, Spanien, Frankreich, Polen, Portugal, Rumänien und Kroatien) die Treibhausgasemissionen reduzieren und gleichzeitig das BIP steigern .
Einen Anstieg der Emissionen im letzten Quartal 2023 im Jahresvergleich verzeichneten Malta (+7,7 Prozent), Slowenien (+5,6 Prozent), Zypern (+2,3 Prozent), die Slowakei (+1,7 Prozent) und Griechenland ( + 0,3 Prozent). Laut Statistik verzeichneten auch fünf Länder ein BIP-Wachstum: Malta (+4,3 Prozent), Slowenien (+2,2 Prozent), Zypern (+2,1 Prozent), die Slowakei (+2,2 Prozent) und Griechenland (+1,1 Prozent).

As someone who recognises the overwhelming scientific consensus on climate change, I'm curious about the perspectives of those who agree that climate change is a significant issue yet oppose the carbon tax as a solution. The evidence for climate change includes increasing global temperatures, rising sea levels, and more frequent extreme weather events, all linked to human activity, primarily the burning of fossil fuels. Experts warn that failing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions could lead to dire consequences, including severe ecological disruption, loss of biodiversity, and substantial economic losses due to climate-related disasters. Given these challenges and the urgency of transitioning away from fossil fuels and improving land use, I'm interested in understanding the arguments against the carbon tax as a policy measure. What alternatives would you suggest that might be more effective or equitable?
Please keep your responses somewhat informed and factual. Misinformation, as well as logical fallacies such as cherry-picking, strawman arguments, and hasty generalizations, detract from constructive discussions. Anyone that identifies logical fallacies please call these users out.
Here is case studies of CARBON TAX WORKING:
There is evidence to support that carbon taxes effectively reduce carbon emissions. Countries like Sweden, British Columbia in Canada, and the United Kingdom have implemented carbon taxes with noticeable reductions in emissions.
Sweden was one of the first to introduce a carbon tax in 1991, and they have seen a significant decrease in emissions while their economy has grown. See here: https://www.government.se/contentassets/419eb2cafa93423c891c09cb9914801b/230323-carbon-tax-sweden---general-info.pdf
British Columbia implemented a carbon tax in 2008, and since then, per capita fuel consumption has dropped by 16%, contrasting with an increase in the rest of Canada.
Kingdom has also seen a substantial decrease in coal use and increased investment in renewable energy, attributed partly to its carbon tax.

De Santis just crushed the Globalists utopian dream in Florida by denouncing so called ‘climate change’ laws. It’s no longer a State “priority
This is such a wonderful thing to hear and embrace. Now lets make this happen in every State and country! Let’s face it, climate always naturally changes. Alarmism is unbecoming. Striking down restrictive laws based on UN climate alarmism is a really, really, really great idea the whole world needs to get on board with, and pronto. It’s working in Perez Zeledon Costa Rica in a HUGE way, which we will share in a post very soon, so we KNOW the Agenda 2030 problem is fixable. Let’s hear from Florida:
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation (HB 1645) on Wednesday May 15, 2024 that will erase several instances of the words “climate change” from state statutes and restructure the state’s fossil fuel-based energy policy that listed climate change as a priority when making energy policy decisions.
The priority now is to ensure “an adequate, reliable and cost-effective supply of energy for the state in a manner that promotes the health and welfare of the public and economic growth,” as spelled out in a legislative analysis.
“Florida rejects the designs of the left to weaken our energy grid, pursue a radical climate agenda, and promote foreign adversaries,” DeSantis said on X on Wednesday afternoon. The message included a statement reading, “Radical green zealots want to impose their climate agenda on people through restrictions, regulations, and taxes.”
The legislation removes over 50 lines in state law that were established in 2008 under then-Republican Gov. Charlie Crist when it comes to addressing climate change. The Crist administration also required the state Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to set clean energy goals. (Crist is now a Democrat.)
Among the parts of current law that will be removed are a provision for addressing “the potential of global climate change” as a state energy policy, and a provision for the state to “play a leading role in developing and instituting energy management programs aimed at promoting energy conservation, energy security, and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.”
It removes provisions that all state agencies shall contract for meeting and conference space only with hotels or conference facilities that have received the “Green Lodging” designation from the Department of Environmental Protection “for best practices in water, energy, and waste efficiency standards, unless the responsible state agency head makes a determination that no other viable alternative exists.”
The legislation prevents local governments from enacting some energy policy restrictions and prohibits the construction or expansion of offshore wind facilities and certain wind turbines within a mile of the coast (Florida has no such facilities currently).

This isn’t the first time that the DeSantis administration has shown a disinclination to combat climate change. A year ago he turned down more than $350 million in federal funding for energy efficiency initiatives in the Sunshine State. That was followed by rejecting another $320 million in federal funding to reduce vehicle emissions, part of the Infrastructure and Investment Jobs Act intended for carbon-reduction projects, as reported by The News Service of Florida.

Democrats and environmentalists criticized the bill.
“I think it’s taking us absolutely in the wrong direction,” said Pinellas House Democratic Rep. Lindsay Cross, who serves as an environmental scientist with the group Environmental Science Associates. “We can’t deny that climate change is happening. Whether you trust the 99% of scientists who do believe in climate change, we know that weather is getting worse, that we have more extreme weather patterns with a very active hurricane season predicted. Combined with the destruction that we’ve already had in this state, stripping the words ‘climate change’ out of statute isn’t going to make it go away, it’s just going to make us less proactive and prepared.”
“Once again, Gov. DeSantis has failed us by signing HB 1645,” said Sierra Club Florida Clean Energy Organizing Manager Brooke Alexander-Goss in a written statement. “Allowing this bill to become law jeopardizes the health and safety of all Floridians, further proving that his top priority is to appease large corporations and fossil fuel companies. We will pay more at the pump and for our insurance premiums, and we will certainly see increases in climate-related disasters and deaths. Make no mistake, Florida will continue to fall behind the rest of the country when it comes to investments in a cleaner and healthier future.”
The CLEO Institute’s executive director, Yoca Arditi-Rocha, said, “It is extremely alarming that leaders in Tallahassee have eliminated statutory language that recognized the dangers of climate pollution, the importance of energy efficiency, and realities of increasing extreme weather events due to a warming planet.”
She went on to say that “Floridians are on the frontlines of rising sea levels, rising extreme heat, rising property insurance prices, more frequent floods, and more severe storms. This purposeful act of cognitive dissonance is proof that the governor and the state Legislature are not acting in the best interests of Floridians, but rather to protect profits for the fossil fuel industry.”
The governor was scheduled to sign the bill in Clearwater Beach, in Pinellas County, but a spokesperson told the crowd that had assembled about 15 minutes before the appearance that he would not appear in person, due to concerns about weather. Clearwater and northern Pinellas were under a severe thunderstorm watch at the time. A listing on the state’s website shows that he signed the legislation at 4:26 p.m.
The bill signing came one day after a poll of 1,400 Floridians found that 68% say that the state government should do more to address climate change. When it comes to the belief that human activity is the cause of climate change, 58% thought so, down from a year ago. The survey showed that only 40% of Republicans say that human activity is the cause of climate change.

Edit: Very interesting. A lot of similar talking points dismissing carbon tax, with no sources. A lot of, renewables are too expensive, carbon tax won't do anything, we still need fuel, Australia doesn't need to transition and penalise carbon emitting activities, yet offer no sources. I posted the same in energy and the discussion was a lot more informative than here. Maybe some of you want change, but not actually support change.
GIVE SOME ALTERNATIVES PLEASE. that's the point of the post, not dismiss, deny responsibility and downplay Australia's contribution to climate change. Floods, droughts and heat waves are expensive, is status quo really working ? How about fuel? Do you really think fuelling up at the servo is a long term option(it's not, and will only get more expensive)?

Three Myths About Renewable Energy and the Grid, Debunked Renewable energy skeptics argue that because of their variability, wind and solar cannot be the foundation of a dependable electricity grid. But the expansion of renewables and new methods of energy management and storage can lead to a grid that is reliable and clean.
