The additional cost of ONE fossil fuel price spike on the scale of 2022 = the ENTIRE COST of Net Zero by 2050. We get precisely nothing in return for the first cost, and a whole new, more secure and cheaper energy system from the second one. #NoBrainer www.theccc.org.uk/2026/03/11/c...

Well the world really has become a strange place when the president of the United States boasts about how impressed the Russian president is by America's war on Iran. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

Greenhouse gases absorb heat radiation, causing more heat to accumulate in the oceans and lower atmosphere (the troposphere). But the higher layers of the atmosphere cool down. This will continue until a new Earth's Energy Imbalance is reached with the greenhouse gas forcing. By @edhawkins.org:

Spread the truth about the hero Alex Pretti. An intensive care nurse murdered under sanction of the US goverment by ICE thugs. He was trying to help a woman they had just pushed to the floor.

So much information in a 25 minute podcast! Well worth watching. Thank you to everyone involved in making it.

I'm pretty stunned that nearly *half a million people* have watched our Climate Solutions 101 course so far. If you haven't seen it, check it out here: drawdown.org/climate-solutions-101

It would benefit everyone to read the book documented in this article. Recognise the echoes? www.bbc.com/culture/arti...

I wonder if there will be an outcry to this very real health threat coming from man made chemicals. These chemicals are causing cancer and other health issues including infertility. Your health is ignored as shareholders profit. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

@theguardian.com It's time that you stopped giving oxygen to Donald Trump. There's no such thing as bad PR. The constant visibility you give him is exactly what he craves: attention. (Unless it's Epstein.) It normalises what by any standards is outrageous behaviour from a head of state.

When people refer to a green backlash, they actually mean a human existential backlash. Let's start removing the future of humanity from politicised labelling and call it what it is. It's not green. It's the future viability of life. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Fentanyl and coke are the new “weapons of mass destruction” lie. It’s Iraq all over again, folks. It’s always about controlling the oil.

I just read this apposite quote. "I don't support what happened to Charlie Kirk, but he did."

The EU wants to roll back vital environmental protections. Deadline to stop it: 10 September ⏰ Tell them to keep their #HandsOffNature 👉 www.wwf.eu/campaigns/it...

This article shows what happens when petrochemical companies drive an increase in plastics consumption for profit. Our health and the health of the planet pays the price to afford petrochemical companies and countries high profits. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Maybe people who don’t care about people and the health of the planet shouldn’t be put in charge of the future of the planet.

US post-9/11 wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and beyond have emitted over 440 million tonnes of CO₂e. Russia–Ukraine war: ~230 million tonnes. Rebuilding Gaza: projected 60 million tonnes. Military emissions are largely excluded from climate agreements. War is both humanitarian and climate crisis.

Did not age well, we just bombed Iran

🌲Ed Sheeran explains to Louis Theroux that he dislikes private jets and prefers trains because "I like the environment, I like trees." We know that this type of messaging from celebrities is hugely impactful. We need far more of this from more stars. As posted by @nowthisimpact.bsky.social

Europe is not immune to the Trump/Musk playbook. This Thursday, right-wing MEPs are teaming up to attack one of the most successful nature protection laws in the world: the Habitats Directive. Send a simple email to MEPs and make a difference. share.greens-efa.eu/s/3NEZyGWM

This is what’s happening with 1.3C of global heating above preindustrial levels. We’re on track for 3C by 2100. Failure to leave fossil fuels in the ground is a devastating crime against humanity & against all other life on this, our one fragile earth

"Donald Trump is now criticizing the Green New Deal and saying that climate change will create more “waterfront property”." - the Guardian. Mud-filled, flooded property anyone? It's hard not to despair in the face of such gross ignorance as Trump boosts coal mining.

Inspired by this illuminating chart, I made one based on Irish data as well. The correlation (and let's be real, causation) between gas prices and electricity prices cannot be clearer.

It is unfathomable that the majority of humans are allowing the 1% richest to destroy humanity and many of the species with whom we share this special rock. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Every time you hear the words "culture war", you can replace it with "protecting vested interests". We know that the overwhelming majority of people want action on the climate crisis, and know that it will benefit them and the economy. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

15+ years old, but still VERY relevent — and if we had acted 15 years ago, the “better world” we’d be creating would be a LOT better & easier to reach. There are real consequences we’re just starting to see to not heeding this cartoon a lot sooner. Even worse if we don’t heed it now. #ClimateCrisis

Over 12.2k likes (so far). It's clearer than day that there is now *enormous* (+ fast increasing) enthusiasm for rewilding in Ireland. And there's likely nowhere else on Earth with greater need. Let's make this happen. 🌍

Here's a major source of microplastics in soils. Other sources, astonishingly, include the *deliberate application* of microplastics, to make soils more friable, and the plastic pellets in which many fertilisers are encased. It is simply crazy and must stop now. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Breaking News! Code UFB!!! The daily CO2 number from Mauna Loa exceeded 430 ppm yesterday. This is the first reading above 430 ever recorded. CO2 levels have not been this high since the Pliocene epoch, 3 to 5 million years ago.

All websites that depend on NOAA data should display something like this. earth.nullschool.net

"I am Zelenskyy" "I am Zelenskyy", "I am Zelenskyy" "I am Zelenskyy", "I am Zelenskyy", "I am Zelenskyy" We are all Zelenskyy. We are all Ukraine.

Red = lowest ecological integrity. Ireland has the great honour of being probably *the* most ecologically trashed nation in all Europe. 🏆 🏆 🏆

Excellent summary

Breaking News! Code UFB!!! The global surface temperature anomaly has now been released for last year. According to Copernicus, 2024 was 1.60°C above the 1850-1900 IPCC baseline! climate.copernicus.eu/copernicus-2...

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

The US and big corporations are leading us into oblivion. Why are we allowing it to happen?

"AI-enhanced research shows regional warming will exceed critical thresholds faster than expected, with most regions surpassing 1.5°C by 2040. Vulnerable areas like South Asia face heightened risks, urging swift adaptation actions." #GreenSky #ClimateCrisis

Great to hear the work of the Climate Justice Universities Union promoted. At the start of the podcast you hear @samfahy.bsky.social (DCU) and Ken Boyle (TU Dublin) - both of whom have been fighting for sustainability for years, so it’s welcome to see the movement growing & including students.
