EDF a décidé de bannir complètement l’alcool, aussi bien pour les pots que pour les déjeuners de ses salariés ou dans les salons pro, a appris @nicolascamut.bsky.social. L’entreprise le justifie par des raisons de “santé publique” et “d’exemplarité managériale”.

We asked every single EU environment/climate ministry what they want the 2040 target to look like.

Only a handful back a loophole-free target. And there's lots of interest in carbon credits.
