Yes. I read a an essay about this by a political scientist 15 years ago and it’s lived rent free in my brain ever since.
In a nutshell, he said, the more unstable and out of control the world seems, the more people are willing to cede power to authoritarian leaders.

"Today's agreement marks the beginning of the post-fossil era," the president of the European Commission said in a social media post.

EU Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen hailed on Wednesday (13 December) the deal struck at the COP28 climate summit as the dawn of a new world with no need for coal or oil.
The final text, agreed on Wednesday morning (13 December), calls on UNFCCC parties to triple renewable energy capacity globally and double the annual rate of energy efficiency improvements by 2030.
“Today’s agreement marks the beginning of the post-fossil era,” the president of the European Commission said in a social media post.
It also calls on countries to “Transitioning away from fossil fuels in energy systems” by 2050 in accordance with the science.
“A crucial part of this historic deal is truly made in Europe,” von der Leyen rejoiced. “The whole world endorsed our 2030 targets: to triple renewable energy and to double energy efficiency, both by 2030.”
EU climate chief Wopke Hoekstra also spoke of a historic decision, saying it will set in motion an “irreversible” transition away from fossil fuels.
“With that, we have achieved what we set out to do: keep 1.5 within reach and mark the beginning of the end of fossil fuels,” he said on social media platform X.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xujiomimpwqvef6ikglhrdla/bafkreid4rm25blxdgas7tv77dbnfgyuotbgbqkoifanqdm2uivvfojtgua@jpeg)

Her comments to reporters in South Africa may impact global climate talks wrapping up in Brazil

The EU isn’t fighting fossil fuels themselves, but the emissions they produce that fuel climate change, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said at a press conference in South Africa ahead of the G20 leaders’ meeting on Friday.
The distinction is likely to send shock waves all the way to Brazil, where the United Nations’ climate change conference, COP30, is about to wrap up.
In Brazil, negotiators are discussing whether to establish a roadmap to meet the pledge countries made two years ago to transition away from fossil fuels. That decision was seen as a major achievement for the European Union’s international climate diplomacy.
Any perceived weakening of Brussels’ position on fossil fuels could undermine the chances of ensuring bold global commitments to end their use. A draft COP30 deal, published Friday, dropped the proposal, mentioned in a previous draft, to convene a conference to help world governments set up roadmaps to end their dependence on fossil fuels.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xujiomimpwqvef6ikglhrdla/bafkreihyofpuzynpw5y3b3f7iyj657dzjb6l7kdqlg4usj4dj4osig56bq@jpeg)

Nothing is a better demonstration of the anti-scientific nature of banning trans women from sports than the fact that the IOC's OWN STUDY found no evidence trans women have any advantage over cis women in sports, but they're planning on going ahead with banning us anyways

The International Olympic Committee is edging closer towards implementing a ban on transgender women competing in the female category in time for the Los Angeles Olympics.
Multiple sources expect such a ban to come into effect over the next six to 12 months with the new IOC president, Kirsty Coventry, making clear she wants to drive through her campaign pledge to protect the female category. Continue reading...
