Zero tolerance for doomerism. Stop lazily accepting that everything is screwed forever. Stop normalising low expectations. That’s part of the problem & it’s what the bastards want. It’s also a product of privilege. People in more desperate situations don’t have the option to just sit back & shrug.

Wir sind von "Klimaschutz ist wichtig" zu "aber Technologieoffenheit muss gewahrt bleiben" bei "Wir kämpfen nicht gegen fossile Brennstoffe, wir kämpfen gegen die Emissionen aus fossilen Brennstoffen" gelandet.

4 Jahre fossile Gegenwehr beim Green Deal.

Das ist das Ergebnis.

1,019 glaciers have disappeared since 1973 in Switzerland! ✝️

1st nationwide assessment of vanished glaciers:
>40% of the glaciers inventoried in 1973
~13% (47±3 km²) of total glacier area loss! 🧊🔥

But, as it is based on the latest inventory (from 2016), the actual figures are far much higher! 📈 😰

📢Global Carbon Budget 2025📢

Fossil CO2 emissions continue to rise in 2025 while the terrestrial carbon sink recovers to pre-El Niño strength.

The key findings are covered in two reports this year:
* ESSDD (preprint): essd.copernicus.org/preprints/es...
* Nature: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

"If we fail to protect permafrost ecosystems, the consequences for human rights, biosphere integrity, and global #climate will be severe. The policy implications are clear: the faster we reduce human emissions and draw down atmospheric CO2, the more of the permafrost domain we can save."

Claim: "Water vapor is a greenhouse gas!"
Reality: Yes, and there's more of it in a warmer atmosphere

-"CO2 is plant food!"
-pretty hard to eat when you're on fire

-"Climate has changed before!"
-We know, we told you that

-"Scientists don't know everything!"
- doesn't mean we know *nothing*

The irony of it all is that all these actions by the dudes at the helm of these places (from the US to Iran) illustrate why “electrifying everything” is a strong way for people to keep sane and play their small part in this insanity
BREAKING: Iran’s Parliament approves the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

Decision needs ratified by Iran’s Security Council.

It would trap 20% of the world’s oil supply and send a catastrophic shock through the global economy.

When I started grad school three decades ago, we thought climate change was a future problem. Now it’s clear that the future is here.

Even if people don’t care that those who’ve contributed the least to causing climate change suffer the most from it, they should care about fixing it for themselves.
