Strategic communication literature has been largely silent about the role of public communication as a core component in the design and implementation of large-scale policy packages for urban transport-system development.

Participants were aware of (but underestimated) the variability in how the phrases are used. More conscious use of probability phrases may improve strategic communication about risk.

Let me know if anything is unclear, or if you see good reasons why your government shouldn't immediately act on this. 🌊

Techno-optimistic scientists were less likely to engage in civic action (e.g., signing petitions, participating in protests) and high-impact lifestyle changes (e.g., reducing flying, shifting to plant-rich diets)
On average, their engagement was 28% and 20% lower, respectively.

It's astounding how much CO₂ we put into the atmosphere each year by burning fossil fuels.
For comparison, we all agree that plastic pollution is bad, but the mass of ALL THE PLASTIC humanity has ever produced is only 25% of the CO₂ we emitted into the atmosphere in 2025.

Still no peak. Emissions are projected to increase by 1.1% in 2025, reaching 38.1 GtCO2. An all time high.

Truly remarkable: Poland used to be a climate laggard.
Today, wind and solar are increasingly replacing coal in the Polish electricity mix with almost 30% of all electricity generated to date this year from wind and solar.
In 2000 coal provided 95% of Polish electricity.
Today it is at 51%.

The land and ocean CO₂ sink are 25% and 7% smaller, respectively, than they would have been without the effects of climate change and variability, on average for the 2015-2024 period.
Combined, this is equivalent to the total sink (land and ocean) being nearly 20% smaller than otherwise.
