🌍 BREAKTHROUGH! After 5 intense rounds of technical negotiations, we've secured a deal! Working with @Guarda_Cristina as rapporteur, we transformed 210 amendments into 32 compromises. Exhausting but worth it! Next steps: committee vote → plenary confirmation.

20bn$ in loss the cost of climate change is already here we need mitigation, a strong global adaptation strategy and more on Loss&Damage. Countries that are suffering the most ain't the bigger polluters #reparation www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Finally, a (partial) good news! The NRL and the UWWD should be adjusted throughout delegate acts, which limit the democratic expression. Although, given the present political context, opening the whole directive would be too dangerous www.euractiv.com/news/ribera-...

“Don’t worry, we are not trying to dismantle the #GreenDeal… …Just a little bit” A new #deregulation is on the way about one of the most sensitive framework in the EU. Although they sell it as simplification to foster their industrial (non-)strategy, we know how this is going. #WFD

No more ban on gas boilers. 🚨 Ring the alarm: a new attack to the #GreenDeal is on the way. The #EPBD targets are stile there, but the ban is key to streamline the investments in the right direction: the transitioning away from fossil fuels. en.ilsole24ore.com/art/brussels...

Climate leadership isn’t a press release. It’s rules that bite and timelines that hold. The EP’s vote to weaken the EUDR is a step backwards. Defend the law’s integrity. #EUDR #DeforestationFree

This vote is a shame. The EP just voted to weaken the EUDR. Delays. Loopholes. Shields for traders. This isn’t “simplification” — it’s backsliding. A shameful day for forests and fair competition. #EUDR #Deforestation #EU

BREAKING NEWS: “We are not fighting fossil fuels” has stated #VDL this morning at a press conference in Johannesburg, for the first African G20 Leaders' Summit. That’s my take as climate advisor👇 open.substack.com/pub/sebamich...

BREAKING: EU Commission President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu says “We are not fighting fossil fuels, we are fighting the emissions from fossil fuels” She is parroting oil&gas industry lines, pushing unproven costly technologies like CCS + CO2 removals to keep using fossil fuels. #FossilFreePolitics

We should include the costs of new transmission, batteries etc when considering the costs of transitioning to clean energy BUT we should also include the entire costs of building and maintaining the old power grid when comparing this to the costs of keeping the fossil fuel system It's only fair 😉

It was nice, but it didn’t last long 😵 Global leaders really need to deliver the fossil fuels phase-down… www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

And even at this COP on #Agriculture and #FoodSecurity we will talk about it at the next #COP.... could this be the result achieved by all those agribusiness lobbies?

Career goal: today was my first time coordinating by myself a technical #negotiation in the #EuropeanParliament to find an agreement on 32 compromises and 210 amendments. We haven't struck a deal yet but we are getting there!

Today the #EuropeanParliament held 3 very key votes for the #climate, the #antideforestation strategy and the overall #EcologicalTransition. Here's a little wrap-up: www.linkedin.com/posts/sebast...

On my way to #Strasbourg! This week: - we might get the #SoilMonitoringLaw approved - meanwhile, we will try to avoid the conservatives to ally with the far right and take down the #ForestMonitoringLaw - vote on some new rules for key EU agencies on chemical and #pollution

#ilariasalis is safe out of Orban's sights. The #EuropeanParliament has rejected the request to uphold her immunity. (It was a close call tho, only 1 vote gap. Democracy is still on the very edge)

If it wasn't clear already, yes: #simplification for the European Commission means #Deregulation ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

#GlobalSumudFlotilla una cosa è certa, senza questa pressione internazionale e sociale, le avrebbero affondate ammazzando qualcuno. Mentre così hanno faticato e qualche barca per ora è passata. per cui, qualsiasi cosa stiate facendo, ovunque la facciate, continuate a farla 🇵🇸🇵🇸

UN MINISTRO DEGLI ESTERI NON PUÒ DICHIARAZIONE UNA COSA DEL GENERE: anche perché la guerra è esplicitamente REGOLATA dal diritto umanitario internazionale. Un ministro degli esteri che dimostra di non saperlo deve dimettersi (e ripetere l'università, 2 volte). fate schifo.

We are stuck in a neoliberal culture feeling entitlement to be and have everything without any responsibility We feel lonely, divided, overwhelmed by this existential crisis that threats our future. Mental health is the first victim of the climate crisis. www.linkedin.com/posts/sebast...

The difference is that in the last mandate EPP and ECR were teaming up more coincidentally. Now it has become intentional as part of a very dangerous strategy from EPP

Extreme weather across Europe this summer caused €43bn in short-term losses, with costs projected to reach €126bn by 2029. Let’s all agree that not acting is and it will cost more than actually doing the ecological transition. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

The defense sector is with high technological content, but requires few workers. In addition, 70% of weapons purchases are carried out outside the European market, which disperses the multiples effect altreconomia.it/investire-in...

«Climate goals ARE NOT responsible for the lack of competitiveness in the EU» Let's enjoy these (less than) 6 months of Danish presidency👀

There will be a time when we will look back and understand that building strong climate policy schemes to use their benefits and revenues for fueling the military and the defense industry wasn't a good idea. We tax on climate but we don't invest in the transition #MFF

What happened today with the 2040 #ClimateTarget and the #ClimateLaw. The urgency procedure has been postponed (last chance tomorrow) and the lead on this has been delivered to the climate deniers MEPs of the far-right.

Is the European Commission allowing forever chemicals PFAS and TFA in our drinking water? MEPs @baseickhout.bsky.social and @cristinaguarda.bsky.social demand action at the source: Europe has a duty to defend our health and ban these dangerous chemicals. www.greens-efa.eu/en/article/p...

The @greens-efa.eu group is now gathering in Copenhagen to set the strategy for the next term. I'm here, energized and ready to fight for meaningful climate #ClimateAction

how's that even possible. How is it possible that after the disgusting and criminal operations we have seen in 2008, well described in the documentary "Inside Job" (2010) we are allowing derivatives and risk transposition again.... www.politico.eu/article/euro...

Notably, the report said it is unlikely that this cascade could have been stopped by a higher volume of conventional power plants offering greater “inertia” to the system.

at the end, it wasn't renewable energy the cause of the Spanish blackout www.solarpowereurope.org/press-releas...
