One of our worst marine microplastic pollutants & no one cares 🛻 I worked on tyre stewardship policy in 2004 and we haven't moved one iota close to solving this massive problem: www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...
Marine researchers find biggest source of microplastics in our ocean is vehicle tyres
It was found broken down tyres were the largest source of microplastics in New Zealand's coastal waters.

Useful pointer via @CarbonBrief on how demanding the main 'Mutirao' text at #COP30 really was. V low number of 'active verbs' means it's good at observing issues, less at doing stuff about them.

New transmission towers are crucial for renewables – but contentious. Here’s where they should go
Australia’s renewable boom has created a new bottleneck: grid access. As new transmission line costs blow out amid protests, we need to optimise the build.

If this is the final outcome of COP30, it is a punch in the gut to all those nations most vulnerable to rising seas and ever-increasing heat. Without meaningful action on the main cause of climate change, COP30 loses all credibility.
