7 key measures for economies and energy transition




by Christophe » 01/03/12, 13:44

The RAC-F and its member associations formulate a call for candidates and presents its recommendations for the 2012 presidential and legislative elections through 7 key measures:

- The implementation of a climate energy contribution which will initiate ecological taxation in our country;
- The adoption of a progressive and complete nuclear exit law to give way to renewable energies and energy efficiency;
- A review of the mode of governance of energy issues to allow local authorities to fully play their role in this area;
- An obligation for energy renovation of old buildings in order to exploit this enormous source of savings;
- A reduction in emissions from the agricultural sector, largely forgotten by the Grenelle environment commitments;
- Low carbon and energy transport infrastructure to limit emissions in the sector that emits the most GHGs;
- A strategy to combat urban sprawl, a vector of greenhouse gas emissions.


The details of these measures can be found in the full document

In the same genre but by the Nicolas Hulot Foundation! They even attack the financial system of money creation in place! Hat!

In 15 proposals to read here: https://www.econologie.info/share/partag ... MXt2o1.pdf

TOWARDS A CRISIS EXIT? Our key axes for a transition
economic, ecological and social


(...)

In short:

For a 6 ecological republic

- Reform the constitution to bring the long term to a
core of the 3 powers (executive, legislative and judicial).
- Strengthen citizen participation to revitalize
the democracy.

Financing the future and the ecological transition

- Give European states the means to finance projects
of general interest thanks to their Central Bank.
- Supervise the development and management of the investment plan in order to
to ensure transparency and the proper use of money.

Establish environmental taxation

- Reform the law to allow development
of ecological taxation.
- Eliminate tax loopholes unfavorable to the environment.
- Establish a tax on natural resources.

Begin the agricultural transition

- Reintroducing the environment at the heart of the CAP.
- Support responsible collective catering, quality proximity and seasonality.
- Give farmers the choice and ownership of their seeds to preserve biodiversity.

Realizing the energy transition

- Make energy sobriety the heart of energy policy.
- Develop a resilient energy mix in the face of crises.
- Fight against fuel poverty.
- Change the governance of energy.

A green and blue fabric to preserve biodiversity

- 30% of the national territory under an effective protection regime.
- Cap the artificialisation of soils and fight against urban sprawl.
- create a national biodiversity agency

The introduction to Hulot's doc is particularly well written, I think!

Extract:

(...)

In this disturbing period of our history, where inequalities are widening and where misery is developing in Europe, it is high time to take back our destiny. We must open a new chapter in human evolution, finally give substance to the notions of ethics and solidarity that we gradually put aside in the XNUMXth century. We must finish with the marginal corrections that distort the ecological project.


For the 1st time, I feel in phase, really, with Hulot's speech ... finally I wonder if it would not have been better to be in the place of Eva Joly ... but this document 1 year late !! :|

Back to basics




by Willy FURTER » 12/03/12, 18:24

As in rugby, when there are slippages, we go back to basics and everything is better.
The sun graciously provides us with calories that we cannot recover because laws oblige to ventilate the facades and roofs of houses.
The ventilated facades are powerful heat extractors, effective for cooling the habitat in summer but very harmful in cold periods because the cold air pumps the calories of the building, through insulators, which only insulate the name because they are heat transfer retarders, with their own phase shift.
The rain, very unpleasant when taken on the face, is however very useful because it provides us with NATURALLY treated water which the legislator hastened to restrict the use for his own interest and not that of the users.
In fact, rainwater, heated by the sun, ensures air conditioning in the home while providing washing machines and dishwashers with significant energy savings when you know that 80% of electricity is used water heating.
These are ways to update our energy policy.
Sincerely

it is true that the document of nicolas hulot makes regret that it is not candidate

especially when he stresses the importance of long-term governance!


the text of the RAC is much more disappointing: I do not support this way of wanting to prohibit and regulate everything

example of the worst: last chapter: fighting against urban sprawl! bin voyon ban a little more

we are in a country where there is a serious housing shortage ... no need to regulate even more: it is enough to build beautiful new housing, comfortable and ecologically economical, well placed near the workplace ... and everything the world will be happy to come there by abandoning badly damaged and too expensive individual houses as much in heating as in transport

and it joins chapter 4 of the kind obligation thermal renovation of existing housing

if there is new economic housing people are not crazy they will leave the bad ones, and the owners will be able to modernize them

you have to build what is useful rather than just criticize what is bad without leaving any way to do better

this image of ecology always to prohibit or regulate does not stop repelling everyone

nicolas hulot may be the first to come out of this trap
