Today, thanks to the S&D’s tireless efforts to bring pro-European forces together, the European Parliament approved the EU target of cutting emissions by 90% by 2040 — sending a strong signal to world leaders gathering at COP30. Europe once again demonstrates global leadership on climate ambition.

Das gibt uns Rückenwind hier bei den #Klimaverhandlungen in Belém: Das Europäische Parlament hat heute die Reform des Europäischen Klimaschutzgesetzes angenommen: Damit wird der Pfad zu #Klimaneutralität der EU 2050 klar beschrieben: 90% Treibhausgasreduktion bis 2040 ist der Zwischenschritt! #COP30

Ein bitterer Tag für den Kampf gegen den Klimawandel. Die Entscheidung bei der Internationalen Seeschifffahrtsorganisation #IMO, den Beschluss zum Klimaschutzpfad für die weltweite Schifffahrt um 1 Jahr zu verschieben, ist falsch. Staaten lassen sich vielleicht unter Druck setzen, der Planet nicht.

Using satellite data, the report found that the energy-related methane emissions are about 80% higher than the total reported to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

NOAA is critical for climate science
Hundreds of NOAA employees were laid off yesterday, escalating the Trump admin’s assault on federal workers. These cuts align with #Project2025’s goal of dismantling NOAA and privatizing key services—making weather data less accessible. UCS’s @marc-alessi.bsky.social explains why NOAA matters.

You can’t think security without climate. When 🇩🇪 passed its first National Security Strategy in 2023, it mandated a #ClimateRisk assessment. Jointly commissioned by @germany.diplo.de and the Federal Ministry of Defense, the #ClimateRiskNiKE is now available 👉 metis.unibw.de/en/nike
