Deutsche Autos sind das #Blackberry der #Autoindustrie.
Darum setzt #Merz jetzt auf #Nokia.
Oder anders:
#CDU will keine #E-Autos
Autobauer schon
#Union will keine #Wärmepumpen
Handwerker + Hausbesitzer schon
#Söder will keine #Erneuerbare
Stahlindustrie, Netzbetreiber + alle mit Balkon schon
Eigentlich setzt jeder, der rechnen kann und an seine Zukunft denkt, auf #Cleantech bzw. #Greentech und nicht auf die fossile Vergangenheit. #Merz hingegen hatte nie vor uns in die Zukunft zu führen. Er wollte sein Leben lang nur 1x ein bisschen Kanzler sein. Egal ob auf Pump und Kosten des Planeten
No surprise - #China, alone, is calling for the removal of #minerals from the Just Transition Work Program at #COP30 #climate talks
Well, no surprise to me. The press release from civil society makes the absurd claim that China is "uniquely positioned to champion a just and equitable approach to transition minerals."
Do they really think a authoritarian country, whose #cleantech industry uses #forcedlabor and #landgrabs of #Tibetan and #Uyghur land/bodies will really "champion" justice?
"Third time's the charm": Engineers with #asteroid mining experience from #PlanetaryResources and #cleantech experience from #FirstMode create a new consulting company called Special Teams. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/engineers-start-fresh-with-special-teams/ #Space #Tech #Engineering

"Venture capitalists in clean tech are starting to say out loud what they’ve suspected for a while: China’s dominance has left key sectors in the West uninvestable.
A group of eight VCs from Western firms agreed to share with Bloomberg the details of a July road trip across China during which they visited factories, spoke with startup investors, and interviewed founders of companies.
They knew China had raced ahead in sectors like batteries and “everything around energy,” but seeing how big the gap was firsthand left them wondering how European and North American competitors can even survive, says Talia Rafaeli, a former investment banker at both Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Barclays Plc who’s now a partner at Kompas VC.
“Everyone needs to take this kind of trip,” she said.
As financial professionals prepare to gather in New York for the city’s annual climate week, they’ll need to address the reality that China — the world’s largest source of carbon emissions — is now the strongest motor guiding the planet to a low-carbon future. While US President Donald Trump axes the green policies of his predecessor and Europe gets caught up in a regulatory stalemate, China is quietly making a number of transition sectors impenetrable to Western startups."
