Goed initiatief: langzamer rijden leidt tot besparing van heel veel brandstof. Een gemiddelde auto verbruikt bij 100 km/u ongeveer 7 liter brandstof per 100 kilometer; bij 130 km/u ongeveer 9 liter. nos.nl/artikel/2608...

🔓️ 🇩🇰 Katrine Skagen @cicero.oslo.no investigates how Denmark became the first country to introduce #carbonpricing on agricultural emissions: through clear long-term #NetZero targets, positive politicisation & integration in a larger policy portfolio with substantial funding & revenue recycling ⬇️

Framing: in der jaren '70 noemen we dit gewoon wat het was: een oliecrisis. Waarom noemen we het nu een energiecrisis? IEA waarschuwt voor grootste energiecrisis ooit: werk thuis en reis met ov - nos.nl/l/2607028

De jongste oliecrisis is geen anomalie, maar een symptoom van een langlopend probleem. De crisis schreeuwt om een duurzame oplossing. Landen als Pakistan en Spanje wijzen de weg Mijn nieuwste opinie in NRC www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2026/...

🇧🇷 As domestic #climate #adaptation #finance is closely embedded within development budgets, it can be protected from climate denialist governments, find Marina Briant & Alexandre Igari in new study on Brazil 💡 Read more⬇️

Great new paper in @climate-policy.bsky.social on #populism, Brazil, domestic climate finance, and the benefits of epistemic and operational ambiguity of adaptation due to its close association with development policies www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

France announced today it’s phasing out Teams, Zoom, etc. to be replaced with a French/European solution called Visio. The data is hosted on Outscale. Transcripts and subtitles are also handled by French providers. The target is set on 2027 for government agencies.

French Minister for Ecological Transition, Biodiversity and International Negotiations in Climate and Nature kicks off the 1st Lead Author Meeting of the #IPCC. This meeting marks the start of a journey towards the 7th Assessment Report. Excited to be part of this

🚚 🇪🇺 Powering road freight in the EU with #renewable #hydrogen is unlikely to help reach #NetZero objectives, find Lafaille & Vernay. The European Commission should: ➡️ Fix several methodological errors in its policy framework ➡️ Focus on other road freight #decarbonization levers Read more ⬇️

The new UNEP Adaptation Gap Report was just launched! www.unep.org/resources/ad... It was a pleasure to contribute as a lead author again. Findings are already being discussed in the context of the UN climate negotiations, with the COP in Belem starting in less than two weeks

Mijn reactie op NOS onderzoek naar het Global Center on Adaptation: #GCA gebruikt onconventionele term 'shaping' finance en ontwijkt de internationale standaard om klimaatfinanciering te rapporteren -die essentieel is voor transparantie, consistentie en tegen double counting nos.nl/artikel/2585...

In our @climate-policy.bsky.social editorial @yacobmulugetta.bsky.social, @pieterpauw.bsky.social and I unpack what today's uncertain times mean for climate policy. We argue for renewed attention, but with greater focus on how climate policy is embedded in larger political and economic questions.

My lab's been attacked by an anti-wind group and their lawyers. They threatened the science funding of my whole university, to shut me and my undergraduate research assistants up. NYT just covered it. 1/n www.nytimes.com/2025/08/25/c...

new editorial🚨 with @ndubash.bsky.social & @yacobmulugetta.bsky.social We reflect on implications of geopolitical tensions and recent shifts in politics and narratives, so as to sustain an informed, creative & positive approach to climate policy in uncertain times www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

De EU heeft na Rusland's invasie van Oekraïne klimaatbeleid opgezet dat voor energiezekerheid én voor een duurzame economische toekomst moet zorgen. Die lijn moeten we doorzetten, óók voor de democratie en de op regels gebaseerde wereldorde. Mijn nieuwe opiniestuk in NRC www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/...

Interesting new systematic review on population issues and climate policy In sub-Sahara Africa, effective mainstreaming requires clear targets aligned with demographic realities (incl. high fertility). In high-income countries, focus is on high consumption www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

nos.nl/artikel/2571... 'De Polderbaan iedere dag een paar uur sluiten, zoals in maart en april gebeurde, is in ieder geval geen duurzame oplossing', aldus de luchthaven. Je kunt er heel veel van zeggen, maar niet dat het niet duurzaam is om duurzame energie op te wekken en minder te vliegen.

New column for @cursortue.bsky.social ⏬ It was convenient to hide behind the finite pool of worry hypothesis, but the genocidal acts and violations of international humanitarian law in #Gaza need to be condemned.

🚨 New in Climate Policy 🚨 Why are Paris Agreement pledges so hard to implement? @harrovanasselt.bsky.social and I identify 5 key risks, like political opposition & weak institutions, that threaten NDC follow-through in 22 major emitters. 🔗 doi.org/10.1080/1469... #ClimatePolicy #ParisAgreement

✅ #Greenbudgeting can be more qualitatively aligned with #NationallyDeterminedContributions through efforts to manage the indirect & unintended impacts of the total budget on national #emissions along with the direct & intended impacts of individual budget projects, finds Ick Jin ⬇️

🇺🇬 : The conflict between right to development & #climateaction is framed by Ugandan actors in three ways, finds Pierre Wokuri @rennesuniv.bsky.social : 1️⃣ Oil exploitation as an economic imperative 2️⃣ Temporary oil exploitation w/ revenues supporting #renewable #energy 3️⃣ No oil exploitation

The upside down world just keeps on upside downsing - the old Annex I & II is now dead. Now in a position to be an huge net export of clean high tech goods, China commits to deep GHG cuts without US involved.

🔓 : #Climate data analysis in policy documents is often limited to average temp and rainfall, & the average of many models, which may underestimate risks, find @ailishcraig.bsky.social et al. @bristoluni.bsky.social in new study on how climate science informs adaptation planning in southern Africa🌍

Klimaat, geopolitiek en weerbaarheid zijn sterk met elkaar verbonden. Mijn nieuwe stuk in NRC Het Duitse coalitieakkoord brengt wat rust in een tumultueuze wereld. Maar op lange termijn is het slecht nieuws voor het klimaat, en de Duitse en Europese weerbaarheid. www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/...

New paper out on the #NCQG on climate finance! It missed 3 key opportunities: 1) demonstrate commitment to transition away from fossil fuels; 2) engage new financial actors, incl. investors, ECAs, and central banks; 3) expand the base of contributing countries www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Participants in research in Fiji consistently allocated 19% of hypothetical Loss and Damage finance to cultural preservation - an issue typically neglected when estimating the costs of climate change www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

This new paper in @climate-policy.bsky.social got quite some media attention. Rightfully so: it shows that electricity dedicated to producing e-fuel for aviation is 3x cheaper than electricity serving primary needs such as heating or lighting. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

TUI en ANVR slepen gemeente Den Haag voor de rechter vanwege het verbod op fossiele reclame. Voor wie denkt dat dit niet zo belangrijk is: think again. Reclame is de frontlinie van de fossiele industrie om haar bestaansrecht te verdedigen www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2021/...

🔓 : Swiss banks have measures at their disposal to achieve #netzero by 2050, but potential market disadvantage risks are preventing implementation, finds Mischa Aeschlimann @ethzurich.bsky.social ➡️ Without regulatory interventions, voluntary efforts will not be sufficient to meet #climate targets

How the climate has changed in my lifetime: It is 15°C outside today and NOS is broadcasting the FULL Elfstedentocht of 1985 that took place exactly 40 years ago. Elfstedentocht is a legendary and ever more unlikely ice-skating race of 200 km. The last edition was in 1997 nos.nl/livestream/2...

"Iedereen wacht nu ook op wat de Europese Unie gaat doen. Als ze andere landen willen motiveren om meer te doen, kunnen ze beter zo snel mogelijk alsnog met hun doel komen. (...) niet pas in augustus, want dan is van die voortrekkersrol geen sprake meer." nos.nl/artikel/2555...

Gisteren mocht ik bij @sophiederkzen.bsky.social aanschuiven van @bureaubuitenland.bsky.social om een half uur de Duitse verkiezingen door te nemen en de rol die #klimaat daar (niet) bij speelt. Luister hier terug: www.nporadio1.nl/uitzendingen...

Klimaat en energietransitie staan minder centraal in de Duitse verkiezingen. Maar, in Noordrijn-Westfalen blijft de strijd om bruinkool nog niet gestreden. Wat staat er echt op het spel voor de Duitse Energiewende? Daarover klimaatonderzoeker @pieterpauw.bsky.social bit.ly/m/Bureau-Bui...

How can we assess the implementation gap existing between climate change #mitigation pledges under the #ParisAgreement and national policy-making? In our just published Climate Policy article, we use a public policy approach to develop two Vertical Policy Harmonization indices that do just that.

Amid all the suggestions for reforms to make COPs more effective, one has flown under the radar: a shift from consensus decisions to majority voting. @joannadepledge.bsky.social writes for @climatehome.bsky.social on how this could be a game-changer www.climatechangenews.com/2025/01/13/t...
