There's a big debate in energy circles about if/when demand for fossil fuels will plateau and begin a decline. What's happening in China, which accounted for 60% of the growth in oil demand in 2013-2023, is fundamental. As my @iea.org colleagues show in this commentary: www.iea.org/commentaries...

After reading this review by Emily H. Wilson, I sat in my car and wept happy tears.

I'm speechless with gratitude and pure joy. www.newscientist.com/article/mg26...

A really devastating piece by Raya Jalabi of the @financialtimes.com on the scramble for information in Assad’s prisons. Really reminds me of Iraq in April ‘03.

My heart goes out to all the Syrians who are out searching prisons and graves for loved ones who’ve long been disappeared by the regime. Praying they find closure and peace.

In an instant, my family—just like dozens of thousands of families in Syria—was shattered with my father's disappearance, marking the end of one life and the painful birth of another.

Yeah but they still haven’t played anyone. And don’t have any injuries.
Liverpool go nine points clear at the top of the Premier League.
Manchester City lose four consecutive league games for the first time since 2008 and are now seven without a win in all competitions.

Twice a year I break my almost iron-clad commitment to not posting personal stuff.
The first is on 30 August, the International Day of the Disappeared.
The second is 19 November, the anniversary of my own father's kidnapping.

The IEA released its new numbers on energy access today. It's a mixed bag. The good news is that the # of people without electricity has fallen, following a few years of stagnation and setbacks. The bad news is that the rate of improvement is 1/10th what it needs to be. www.iea.org/commentaries...

A gentle reminder that if we miss the 1.5°C target (and we certainly will), the next target is 1.51°C and not 2°C. We need to keep fighting.
Every tonne of CO₂ emitted makes the job of future CO₂ removal harder, and every 0.01°C of temperature increase makes the world more chaotic and dangerous.
