Europe’s 2025 wildfire season broke all previous records, and Spain was the hardest-hit EU country. While citizens showed notable solidarity to fight the flames, political polarisation stalled desperately needed climate adaptation.
Spain on Fire: The Cost of Polarisation
Amid disinformation and distrust, politics has failed to engage with urgently needed climate adaptation. But solidarity offers hope.

Italy’s agricultural holdings have halved in twenty years. The Common Agricultural Policy has fostered a system in which many farmers “cultivate the subsidy rather than the field.” Small farms that care about sustainability barely survive.
Land Stewards: Farmers Resisting a Broken System
Once the motor of European integration, the CAP now rewards productivity and punishes sustainable agriculture.

Andrej Babis, Czechia's populist-in-chief, is ready to become prime minister again after the elections next week. He chose Moravia-Silesia as his battleground to bank on social discontent over the end of coal and the lack of a just transition

Norwegian general election one week away. Climate issues are hardly discussed by politicians, but the election result may have profound impact on Norwegian climate governance. I talked about this with Green European Journal.

On Tuesday, hundreds of Ukrainians took to the streets after the passage of a bill that weakens anti-corruption agencies. As Ukraine’s independent media has shown, authorities must be held to account even in times of war.

"If We Burn" by @vincentbevins.bsky.social is an essential book for understanding the mass protest movements of recent years - and why many of them failed to deliver the change they aspired to. I interviewed him for the latest print edition of the @greeneujournal.bsky.social

From France to Austria to Brussels, political and economic elites are choosing tactical alliances with extremists rather than progressives to preserve neoliberal consensus. Read ✍️Francesca De Benedetti’s analysis.
How Firewalls Fall
Political and economic elites nurture far-right forces to prevent the emergence of genuine alternatives to the neoliberal consensus.

Yesterday, the Freedom Flotilla boat bringing aid to Gaza diverted its route to rescue migrants, with Lybian coast guard refusing help. Discrimination against migrants reaching European shores and oppression of Palestinians are more linked than it seems. www.greeneuropeanjournal.eu/double-dehum...

The 2008 financial crash exposed the lie at the heart of the neoliberal promise. It had not delivered growth and stability, but speculation, debt, and deepening inequality. Since then we've had one crisis after the other. Why would we support this system? www.greeneuropeanjournal.eu/in-defence-o...

This is the situation we try to think through. A conflicted version of the Green New Deal has brought some advances in a very dangerous situation. Are those advances *despite* those dangers? Or *because* of them. That tension must be faced head on if we are serious about this project.
