A recent study by Dutch colleagues shows that a shutdown of the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC could bring extreme drought to Europe for centuries.
That is a thus far underappreciated risk of climate change.

Fossil-fuel extraction massively outweighs critical mineral mining needs (quite literally)

– We dig up tens of billions of tonnes of stuff every year to produce coal, oil & gas
– Raw-material extraction for critical minerals would be a fraction of that, even under net-zero

Africa’s forests have joined the Brazilian Amazon and Australian forests in becoming carbon sources rather than sinks. Around 2010 the previous storage of our carbon emissions flipped, mainly through deforestation and degradation.

Voor het eerst in jaren is de nieuwbouw door woningcorporaties flink toegenomen. In 2024 bouwden ze bijna 22.000 nieuwe woningen, in 2023 waren dat er nog zo'n 16.500.

De netto groei is een stuk lager: corporaties verkopen (3.400 woningen aan toekomstige bewoners) en slopen (8.000 woningen) nl ook

Van dit grafiek wordt je heel stil! Door broeikasgassen houdt de aarde inmiddels 4 watt/m2 extra vast. Dat is 1 ledlamp per m2. En dat op de hele aardbol, 24 uur per dag. Onvoorstelbaar veel extra energie om de aarde mee op te warmen. En om steeds meer ijs te smelten. #klimaatveramdering

De hoeveelheid aandacht die naar statushouders gaat is krankzinnig. Even wat cijfers:
- jaarlijks gaan +/- 15.000 corporatiewoningen naar statushouders
- totaal verhuringen door corporaties: 166.000
- totaal mutaties hele woningvoorraad (koop+huur): +/- 525.000-550.000 woningen (schatting)

De ETHOS telling telt ruim 28.000 dak- en thuisloze mensen in 57 gemeenten, waarvan 1 op de 7 minderjarig. Het onderstreept andermaal dat de CBS cijfers dakloosheid aanzienlijk onderschatten (door een beperkte afbakening)

Een op zeven dak- en thuis­lozen is minderjarig, van wie enkelen soms buiten slapen: ‘Triest dieptepunt’
Een op de zeven dak- en thuislozen is minderjarig. Deze kinderen slapen bijvoorbeeld op de bank bij familie of kennissen, verblijven in een auto of stacaravan of in een gezinsopvang.

"Stadsgeograaf Cody Hochstenbach wijst erop dat in 2015 in totaal nog 224.000 corporatiewoningen werden toegewezen. In 2023 waren dat er minder dan 166.000 [...]. Die afname – 58.000 – is ruim drie keer zo groot als het aantal huizen dat nodig is voor statushouders."
