A powerful call echoed by over 80 countries rang through the halls of #COP30 during an afternoon press conference today, demanding a roadmap to transition away from fossil fuels!

10 years ago hydrogen buses were hyped and many cities ordered them. Today the picture is clear: electric buses rule, hydrogen buses whither.

The school street at "Ecole M" in the 15th arrondissement represents the Paris standard: fully pedestrianized with some center-running greenery and a patch of thermoplastic. Simple.

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, a prominent climate voice in Congress, is the sole U.S. federal official at the COP30 climate talks.

NEW | No growth for fossil fuels in global electricity generation expected in 2025 🔥❌ Ember forecasts no increase in fossil generation as wind and solar are growing fast enough to meet all new electricity demand.

Global CO₂ emissions from fossil fuels are likely to increase this year, while those from land-use change will fall

🤡OIL DEMAND WILL KEEP RISING🤡 What are the IEA assumptions that make rising oil demand so improbable?

NEW: Global fossil fuel use will peak before 2030 – unless 'stated policies' are abandoned Contra some terrible news coverage, IEA World Energy Outlook shows coal near peak, oil peaking by 2030 & gas by 2035 (see chart) What's going on? 🧵 + cool charts www.carbonbrief.org/iea-fossil-f...

Executive Director @mooreprogress.bsky.social joins @markruffalo.bsky.social & Saad Amer for a conversation on building a grassroots climate movement! We discussed our #GreenHealthySchools campaign for healthier schools, lower utility costs, and green jobs: alignny.org/greenhealthy...

Can’t get enough of this! While Tokyo cuts down trees and paves over open spaces, Paris is pedestrianising the city and making it greener for everyone. This is what real climate leadership looks like. Thanks for the inspiration @annehidalgo.bsky.social !

NEW data | Less than 50% of Australia's electricity generation came from fossil fuels in October 🇦🇺⚡️ This was the first month ever where renewables have overtaken fossil fuels in Australia's electricity mix. 10 years ago, in October 2015, fossil fuels made up 86%.

China's formal submission of its new climate targets leaves out the commitment made in 2021 to gradually reduce coal consumption in 2026-30. It does reiterate the commitment to reduce carbon intensity, which is currently badly off track, but doesn't provide any progress update.

It’s awesome to see this — but seriously, it’s so damn frustrating that we have to fight this fight in every city when the science couldn’t be clearer. Get the cars out, make more money for local shops, and build cities that are exciting, healthy, and happy for everyone.

While the US federal government is trying to block global climate action, cities are stepping in to lead. At #WMS25, mayors came together to stop climate breakdown. Hear what it was like on the ground in the Cities 1.5 World Mayors Summit Special dropping on 18 Nov. https://lnk.to/S6Trailer

When I was first elected, evidence showed it would take 193 years to bring London's air pollution within legal limits. Due to our policies, we've done it in 9. In Brazil this week, we showed that cities are giving the world reason to hope when it comes to tackling the climate emergency.

⚡ Big news for renewable energy in Mexico! ☀️ The Mexican state-owned utility has launched a tender for the Puerto Peñasco Secuencia III solar plant. This project will deliver 300 MW of solar power and integrate 103 MW of battery storage, boosting clean energy capacity and grid stability 🔋

Milan is stepping up on its climate plans. Mayor Giuseppe Sala has committed to reinforcing the EU’s largest Low Emission Zone and launching new community solar projects to build a cleaner, healthier city. #WMS25

Today, #BreatheCities mayors highlighted how the initiative helps them use data & community engagement to deliver cleaner air for all. From London’s world-leading clean air zone to Rio’s goal to electrify 30% of buses by 2030, cities are proving that progress is unstoppable. #ItsInTheAir #WMS25

Tokyo steps up its climate action. Governor Yuriko Koike is working to make Tokyo a more resilient city by committing to installing solar panels on new buildings and developing an offshore wind farm. #WMS25

Seoul is accelerating its climate action. Mayor Oh Se-hoon has committed to upgrading insulation in 1,500 low-income homes – making them warmer, cutting emissions, and creating good green jobs for residents. #WMS25

Quarterly results of China's and the world's largest oil refiner Sinopec: China's consumption of transport fuels (gasoline, diesel and kerosene) fell 4% year-on-year in Jan-Sep, due to the impact of "alternative energy" i.e. EVs, speeding up from 3.6% drop in H1.

Chicago Auxiliary Bishop José María Garcia-Maldonado at ICE detention facility: “Being here is an act of holiness…soon we will seek access to the facility to bring the Eucharist to our brothers and sisters; if they say no again, we will keep praying.”

Exxon Mobil sued California late Friday claiming that two new state laws that aim to fight climate change would violate the oil company’s free speech rights.

I’m in Paris right now and have noticed “school street” mentioned as a desirable feature in real estate ads. No cars = higher property value, it seems

This is located in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, close to Fullerton and Sheffield. It's a densely populated area near DePaul University. I'm pleased to see the community standing up against these despicable individuals.

Good morning with good news: China's coal generation and gas generation fell 5.4% in September 2025. compared to September 2024! They're down 1.2% in first 9 months of 2025. Huge wind, solar & battery deployment continues. Hydro & nuclear grow too. www.reuters.com/business/ene... #energysky

Great video by @evanedinger.bsky.social comparing cycling in London to Paris, I highly recommend watching. It looks like he had fun in both cities, but we see that there’s still a lot to do for London to keep up with other European cities @willnorman.co.uk m.youtube.com/watch?v=3BJ-...

Last week Claire Coutinho argued the UK wasn’t actually cutting its emissions that much because deindustrialisation meant we were offshoring emissions. Now new research shows 80% of UK emissions reductions since 2005 have nothing to do with offshoring. www.thetimes.com/article/223a...

#CocaCola #IKEA and #Volvo join call for EU to resist #climatedeniers - 131 industry leaders have called on EU not to diverge from its climate targets, urging a 90% reduction in emissions by 2040. However, #rightwing MEPs and EU leaders could derail the target www.brusselstimes.com/eu-affairs/1...

The Trump administration is once again seeking to meddle with our streets to make buses slower, worsen congestion and pollute our air.

Avant / Après Rue Saint-Maur dans le 10ème arrondissement de Paris. Cette nouvelle partie piétonne coupe cette longue rue en deux pour la circulation motorisée, ainsi elle fait moins office de "raccourci" et redirige le trafic d'avant vers l'avenue plus large à côté.

The U.S. has blocked a global fee on shipping emissions as an international maritime meeting ended Friday without adopting new regulations. The world’s largest maritime nations had been deliberating on regulations to move the shipping industry away from fossil fuels.

The US DOT is trying to prevent New York City from implementing a busway on a corridor that serves 28,000 daily bus riders www.nyc.gov/html/brt/htm... US DOT has already tried to kill congestion pricing, put pauses on 2nd Ave Subway & Gateway Tunnel, & took policing money away from NYC transit.

Extraordinary scenes unfolding at the global meeting to put a charge on shipping carbon emissions. "The United States is waging war against multilateralism, UN diplomacy and climate diplomacy, at this meeting now, inside the building and outside the building." 🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

European scientists — this is the moment to speak up. Ahead of the EU Council on Oct 23, we must stand together for a science-based 2040 climate target. A 90–95% domestic GHG reduction by 2040 is not radical — it’s necessary. Sign the letter from #Scientists4Future! docs.google.com/document/d/1...
