Friends of #FridaysforFuture, Dublin, Week 321. There are more of us climate striking than there are countries who have submitted their revised NDCs under the #ParisAgreement - eldik.r.sp1-brevo.net/mk/mr/sh/1t6.... The @UNFCCC process is not fit for purpose - www.clubofrome.org/cop-reform-2...

With 10 days to go for parties (countries) to the Paris Climate Agreement to submit their revised Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to emission reduction, here is the state of play.

'Since 2017, every additional kilowatt hour of wind energy generated has been matched by the growth in data centre demand. This means that renewables have been serving demand growth, not displacing fossil fuels.'
