With this new step, we will try to be the voice of science and art around the world, which are being silenced and suppressed.
Our news will be multilingual.
Of course, we will be positive and progressive/constructive.
But without losing our independent side

Enkele weken geleden brachten we samen met NRC en Omroep Gelderland een kritisch verhaal over de plannen van demissionair minister Wiersma. En dat leverde flinke kritiek op. Hoe dat zit, lees je in de Klimaatnieuwsbrief van @tiesjoosten.nl.

Tiefseebergbau: Wie schützen wir den Meeresboden?
Der Meeresboden birgt enorme Reserven an Mangan, Kobalt, Nickel und anderen Mineralien. Bislang gibt es keinen internationalen Konsens, ob und wie deren Abbau erfolgen soll. Fest steht jedoch: Die ökologischen Folgen des Tiefseebergbaus sind gravierend, die Kosten hoch. Wie kann der Meeresboden als „Erbe der Menschheit“ geschützt und das internationale Seerecht überarbeitet werden?

Kissing (non-agonistic interactions involving targeted, intraspecific, oral-oral contacts involving some movement of the lips/mouthparts and no food transfer) occurs ants, birds, and polar bears, but mostly in primates.
Conclusion: 'kissing' has a history of 21.6-16.5 million years.

I was scolded by a civil society rep in Brazil for praising this intervention by Colombia. But I stand by it till the end. We need more straightshooters and we need to embarrass both the 190+ Parties present and thepresidencies that don't focus on fossil fuels from the beginning.
1/2. “The COP of Truth cannot ignore science. 75% of carbon emissions come from fossil fuels. Today we are not even allowed to discuss pathways for a just and equitable transition away from fossil fuels.” Colombia at the close of #COP30.

They called it the COP of Truth but refused to embrace the battle against fossil fuels until last minute. When that obviously collapses, we're supposed to just be content with an autonomous initiative and not object to a final text that leaves the source of the crisis nameless?

It's also disheartening, as a Brazilian, to see the issues we've always faced in national politics, where the more radical of us are reprehended for demanding more from our progressive governments, transfer onto the COP system. They expected us to praise everything just because it's Brazil.

Those doing advocacy inside have their own approach and I get it. But the advantage of being a climate scientist and activist is that I get to join other voices to bring alternative readings of the situation. We already have enough diplomats at COPs. Let us critics retain our ability to be frank!

Takeaways from the COP30 climate summit in Brazil
This year's U.N. climate change summit ended with a tenuous compromise for a deal that skipped over most countries' key demands but for one: committing wealthy countries to triple their spending to help others adapt to global warming.
