Europe has already seen €208 billion in climate-related losses between 2021-2024, and the costs keep climbing 📈
Climate action is a shared responsibility across governments, business and finance, and resilience must be built in by design.

Gender equality doesn’t just 'happen.'
Women’s rights must be fought for and protected.
Our responsibility is clear.

So tired of this idea that billionaires are our "betters" whose opinion is super important because they have a lot of money. It's bullshit. They're mostly greedy sociopaths who have no problem destroying people who get in their way. That doesn't make your opinion one to be valued, in my opinion.

For decades, America has been promoting checks and balances and the rule of law around the world. But now these principles are under assault in Washington, and nobody seems to know what to do.

You know who understands risk? Actuaries. And guess what they're saying: "... the plausible worst-case hit to global economies would be 50% in the two decades before 2090."
I'm bad at budgeting, can someone tell me whether 50% is a lot?

Global economy could face 50% loss in GDP between 2070 and 2090 from climate shocks, say actuaries

On the COP29 outcome, Mohamed Adow of Power Shift Africa says: "At this 'Finance COP' not a single dollar of real climate finance has been provided right now. Not only did the global north impose a low-ball finance figure, it comes into force 11 years from now. This deal is too little, too late."

My one constructive criticism on BlueSky, as a community: we need to “like” less and “retweet” more. In the absence of an algorithm, that’s the way we find each other and reward good content.
