Een betere wereld begint bij een reclameverbod
Klimaatactivisten richten hun pijlen wereldwijd op fossiele reclames. Maar zijn we echt zo makkelijk te beïnvloeden, of is de macht van de commercie een mythe?

Refreshing to hear this on a mainstream news programme.
A great interview from Kevin that directly addresses the issues of COPs, climate, equity and how we choose to spend our wealth as a nation. 👍

Short interview on the BBC Today programme with Amol Rajan, discussing the upcoming Brazil COP and how the so-called “cost of living crisis” is being (mis)used by leaders and high emitters to avoid taking meaningful action on climate change.

Yesilgoz speelt dommetje: waarom deze tussenstap? De reden is overduidelijk haar eigen gedrag, waardoor aan tafel gaan met VVD betekent dat één weg bij voorbaat wordt afgesloten. Had ze GL-PvdA niet uitgesloten, dan zaten ze nu gewoon met z’n vieren aan tafel.

The shift to electric and low-carbon transport is well underway—and EV sales are rising fast.

Many people are calling out the IEA's current projections for political bias. Maybe rightly so. But the assumption is that until Trump, they were politically independent? I mean, this is an organisation that was formed for the explicit purpose of securing oil supplies for the OECD

The rapid adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) saw CO2 emissions from transport fuel drop by 5% year-on-year, while there were also declines from cement and steel production.
