Los fenómenos climáticos extremos en 2025 pusieron al límite la capacidad de adaptación
En 2025, el cambio climático impulsó fenómenos climáticos extremos en todo el mundo, afectando de forma desproporcionada a las comunidades vulnerables y marginadas. Además, las temperaturas globales fueron excepcionalmente altas, se registraron olas de calor considerablemente más intensas que hace 10 años y millones de personas se vieron empujadas al límite de la adaptación. Son las principales conclusiones del informe de 2025 publicado por la iniciativa World Weather Attribution, para cuyos expertos “reducir drásticamente las emisiones de combustibles fósiles sigue siendo la política clave para evitar los peores impactos del cambio climático”.

Schools – and I’m talking about K-12 and higher education – are organized to teach productivity skills and others that are valuable to employers and corporations.

Without fully agreeing with Max Ajl that degrowth has undervalued the periphery, this still serves as a necessary reality check now that degrowth is becoming mainstream in Northern academia. It is time to stop looking at ourselves in the GND mirror. brill.com/view/journal...

Climate inflation is the real story behind rising food prices. As ecosystems break down, costs rise. 2026 may be when prices begin to mirror planetary limits. Degrowth isn’t a choice, but the only just path away from ecofascism. www.fao.org/3/cd6008en/o...

Reading interest-driven papers like these, I’m reminded of Fisher’s warning: “If you torture the data long enough, it will confess to anything”. Absolute decoupling under capitalism is impossible, not just because of thermodynamics, but because of capital’s drive to accumulate.

Oh really?
1) Emissions of greenhouse gases are still rising
2) The degree of decoupling is far from enough
3) for the United Kingdom, the reduction 2015-2023 was -18.41%, average
