CREATURES OF HABIT - The United Nations is an organization that is finding it hard to persuade their kleptocratic members to enact legislation or reach agreement as to targets to change their dirty energy habits. That may be the case, but there is a growing number of companies around the world who are thinking and acting responsibly - so potentially leading the way. An ambitious trend like this is showing politicians what they should have been doing to protect Planet A years ago.

 

 

According to the RE100 website, there is a growing list of the world’s most influential companies, who are committing to 100% renewable power within a reasonable timeframe.

The 'RE100' is an international corporate leadership initiative bringing together influential businesses that are committed to using 100% renewable electricity as one of their commendable goals.

The RE100 is led by The Climate Group in partnership with CDP. Their purpose is to accelerate change towards zero carbon grids, on global scale.

According to their website the initiative is designed to increase corporate demand for the supply of renewable energy, by:

 

* "Bringing together major companies committed to sourcing 100% renewable electricity globally in the shortest possible timeline (by 2050 at the latest);"

 

* "Setting the bar for corporate leadership on renewable electricity, holding members to account, and celebrating their achievements to encourage others to follow;"

 

* "Communicating the compelling business case for renewables to companies, utilities, market operators, policymakers and other key influencers;"

 

* "Highlighting any barriers to realizing the business and economic benefits of renewable electricity as reported by RE100 members;"

 

* "Working with RE100 members and in partnership with others to highlight and address policy and market barriers to corporate sourcing of renewable electricity."

 

Companies in the commercial and industrial sector account for approximately two thirds of the world’s electricity users. Switching their demand to renewable energy is sure to encourage change in the global energy market and likely to accelerate the transition to a clean economy.

Companies joining RE100 help to set a public goal to source 100% of their global electricity consumption from renewable sources by a specified target year. They disclose their electricity data annually, and the RE100 report on their progress.

RE100 was launched at Climate Week in NYC 2014. Since then the initiative has expanded across Europe, North America, India, and China. They report seeing rapid growth in areas such as Japan and Australia. Their members have operations all over the world and in a wide range of industries, from telecommunications and IT to cement and automobile manufacturing.

Both The Climate Group and CDP are part of the 'We Mean Business' coalition, working to catalyze business action and drive policy ambition to accelerate the zero-carbon transition.

SIX IMPORTANT CHANGES TO COOL THE PLANET

 

1. TRANSPORT: Phase out polluting vehicles. Government aims to end the sale of new petrol, and diesel vehicles by 2040 but have no infrastructure plan to support such ambition. Whereas, there will be RE capacity, leaving auto makers shamefully trailing. Marine transport can also be carbon neutral if the winds of change are favorably implemented.

 

2. RENEWABLESRenewable energy should replace carbon-based fuels (coal, oil and gas) in our electricity, heating and transport. Conventional energy exploration companies should consider a phased transition to green alternatives.

 

3. HOUSING: On site micro or macro generation is the best option, starting with new build homes that are affordable for young families and sustainable in energy terms, preferably flatpacks timber units.

 

4. AGRICULTURE: We need trees to absorb carbon emissions from a growing population, air travel, and to build new homes. We need to reduce food waste and promote less energy intensive eating habits such as no meat Mondays.

 

5. INDUSTRY: Factories should be aiming for solar heating and onsite renewable energy generation until the grid is all solar and wind powered.

 

6. POLITICS: - National governing bodies need to adopt policies to eliminate administrative wastages, to include scaling down spending on war machines, increase spend on educating the public and supporting sustainable social policies that mesh with other cultures. We need an end to local empire building kleptocrats. A change is statute is the only way to curb climate unfriendly councils, where it is they who control construction methods and planning permits.
