I'm not sure many folks realize just how persistent the warming from CO2 is.
Here is a set of 1000-year climate model runs (using FaIR) simulating one year of CO2 emissions (40 gigatons in 2020); a millennia later the world has not cooled back down!

We focus way too much on what politicians say ,or allegedly believe, rather than what they actually do.
Alleged “beliefs” are also often used to justify illiberal and undemocratic policies and rhetoric.

Politics today is less driven by ideological conviction and more by parties chasing votes based on a distorted picture of public opinion, one filtered through algorithms that amplify emotionally engaging content. This incentivises performance over substance and erodes democratic deliberation.
If correctly written:
"Ministers are to announce a tightening of migration rules as the government hands over the political agenda to Nigel Farage"
Both immoral and politically inept. Well done Yvette Cooper.

Europe relies heavily on imported fossil fuels—a big risk for energy security, competitiveness, and climate action.
Geopolitical tensions can disrupt supply and spike prices, making us all vulnerable. Investing in local clean energy is key for resilience, jobs, and a sustainable future.

Who should do the fact checks with millions and millions of fake news? The nature of social media itself is the problem. However it probably is impossible to get rid of every social network and revert debates to pre 2010-status.
