In Europe climate action is being watered-down, in the US anti-environmental policies thrive. The clock is ticking. Yet the mass climate protests of 2019 seem a distant memory. Some young activists feel despair.

What message does @ipcc.bsky.social chair @jimskeaclimate.bsky.social have for them?

It's St. Martin's Day, a day of lantern-lit cheer with (mostly) parents & children walking through neighbourhoods, praising a man sharing his cloak with a poor, freezing beggar. These days, the tradition lives in the shadow of Halloween, but it's one of my favourite days.
#GoodMorning, everyone

A historic turning point for clean heating in Europe: For the first time, in the first half of 2025 sales of heat pumps in Germany have surpassed those of gas boilers.

This is a big milestone, demonstrating that the transition away from fossil fuels in our buildings is not just a future ambition.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."
