As #COP continues with its tortuous negotiations in #Belem, is #China emerging as the new global leader on #climate change? This data makes a compelling argument ... #carbon #CO2 #emissions theprogressplaybook.com/2025/11/11/c...

At least 14 countries are on track to get more than half of their #electricity from #wind and #solar by 2030, according to the International #Energy Agency. Can you guess who? #renewables #renewablenergy theprogressplaybook.com/2024/10/14/t...

Some good news. #Deforestation has fallen again in #Brazil. The direction of travel is important. #naturepositive #nature #conservation

#Sustainability faces headwinds created by Trump’s anti-ESG and anti-renewables rhetoric and policies. But investors are smarter than Trump and - despite their reputation for short-terminism - are putting their money in the #cleantech growth markets #esg #sustainablefinance #greenfinance

The collapse of the Net Zero Banking Alliance is regrettable. But don’t imagine this is the end of #sustainable #finance. Question: If you’re a #bank with a healthy profit motive and you see the chart below, what strategic choices will you make? #esg #banking #netzero Source: BloombergNEF

What is the #Regenerative Economy? Is it a new concept and practice, or just the recycling of existing ideas under a new label (“old wine in new wine skins”, as the biblical parable puts it)? Here is my attempt at an answer profwaynevisser.substack.com/p/the-regene... #regenerativeeconomy

#Wind power has cut £104bn from UK energy costs since 2010 BUT Perversely, the government regulated price of electricity that the public pays is based on the price of natural gas We are letting fossil fuels punish us rather than #renewables reward us www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Good(ish) news! We're bending the #CO2 curve. For the first time, the #UN has predicted a fall of #emissions: 10% by 2035. Of course it falls way short of the 60% needed to stay within 1.5 degrees, but it is a significant milestone nevertheless. BBC article: www.bbc.com/news/article... #climate

The market cuts through the political posturing, Republican rhetoric and Trump tirades in the U.S. Clean tech companies are just better investments than fossil fuels today. Why? Could it be - going out on a limb here (not) - because they are the FUTURE? Source: Bloomberg #cleantech #renewables

Good news on #biodiversity. The decline of #nature is not inevitable. #naturepositive #conservation #turtles www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This is what happens when you embrace the open market (used to be a thing, remember?). The UK chose not to impose tariffs on EV imports, unlike the EU and the US. And guess who benefits? The customers. Shocking! Scandalous! 😁 #evs #china #byd #usa #eu #cleantech #uk www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It’s happening folks … not everywhere and not fast enough, but it’s happening This is a symbolic tipping point when the old dirty Fossil Fuelled Industrial Revolution gives way to the new Clean Renewable Powered Industrial Revolution #cleantech #renewables #energy www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

#Solar installations surged by 64% in the first half of the year, compared to the same period in 2024. The growth was led by #China, but #India also deployed near-record amounts of solar, while #Africa saw the technology begin to “take-off” #renewables #cleantech #climatetech

According to Ember, Chinese factories now produce 60% of the world’s #wind turbines and 80% of its #solar panels. #China has made the cost of renewables more competitive globally, meaning that 91% of newly commissioned wind and solar projects are now cheaper than their fossil fuel equivalents

Western #Australia will designate the 2,600sq km #Exmouth Gulf a #marine reserve, with 30% of its waters off-limits to fishing. Encompassing #coral reefs and #mangroves, the Gulf is home to Australia’s largest concentration of #dugongs and is a vital stop-off point for migrating humpback #whales

Trump is trying hard to bring back fossil fuels but he is failing. In June, almost one-quarter of US #power generation was #green, up from 18% in the year-earlier period, according to data compiled from the US #Energy Information Administration. Source: Bloomberg www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
