The European Council just held an in-depth discussion on how to make sure that Europe’s climate ambitions and the competitiveness of our economy go hand in hand.
We reaffirmed our commitment to the Paris Agreement and stressed that we need to be pragmatic and flexible in our strategy.

Current empirical evidence does not support optimism on climate action. We can, maybe should, maintain hope - hope for change - as long as that hope drives more and faster action.
BREAKING: The #StateOfClimateAction 2025 finds the world is failing to act fast enough to combat the climate crisis and secure a livable future, with no indicators of global climate action currently on track for 2030. 🌏🌡️

I am disappointed with the handling by Prime Time of this presidential debate. We have learned very little about either candidate’s plans and vision for the presidency. Someone tuning in for the first time will only hear about their pasts, nearly nothing about their vision for the future. #Aras25

This morning my 10 year old daughter woke up in a rage this morning. She went on a rant about all the stupid, idiot people that are ruining the world.
Her list included Trump, Putin, Kim-Jong Un, the Taliban, the ‘Benjamin guy in Israel’… ‘All these selfish, lying men!!’
