Although we're not where we should be, we're on a significantly better trajectory than we were 10 years ago.

The US is the world's largest oil and gas producer. Yet, "China is now making more money from exporting green technology than America makes from exporting fossil fuels."

Every sample tested contained chemicals, whether from treated or untreated wastewater, surface runoff or agricultural chemicals. Antibiotics used to treat both humans + animals 'at concentrations high enough to suggest that antimicrobial resistance should be studied further in UK freshwaters'

So it's official; the world's governments have failed to take the necessary actions and we're now going to #overshoot the goals of the Paris #climate accord How should we make sense of this moment? And where do we go from here? @overshootpod.bsky.social offers some suggestions

Reeves considers cut to green levies to reduce cost of energy bills. Cut bills by cutting profiteering, change Ofgem's marginal pricing method, improve housing, nationalise energy. Fund green levies through general taxation. Take equity stake for govt subsidies. There must be no free cash.

Why Reform UK hates net zero … follow the money! Most Reform UK voters don’t object to green policies, so who is its climate crisis denialism designed to serve? By David Goff

🚨🚨 #Starmer government has just made one more step in throwing away any climate credentials it had - it has just awarded #Drax a further four years subsidies as the UK's biggest carbon emitter @dalevince.com @zackpolanski.bsky.social @rupertread.bsky.social

The PM is going to a rainforest in Brazil tomorrow. Britain has rainforests too. I agree with the Woodland Trust: "This feels like a lost opportunity to demonstrate domestic leadership in the protection & restoration of the UK's own precious temperate rainforests." www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Honestly, they can get in the sea. A sea that is rising because of the climate change they don't want to teach kids about.

Howling into the void, but there's something deeply enraging at the Mail attacking an attempt to teach children about climate impacts that will shape the rest of their lives. It's catastrophically stupid nihilism dressed up as conservatism - and they have the nerve to accuse others of dumbing down.

Teachers unions leverage contracts for climate action. Thank you to all teachers fighting for strong climate action @uftaction.bsky.social @aftnh.bsky.social @aft.org @rweingarten.bsky.social for our children. In solidarity- #HealthcareDivest from fossil fuels. hechingerreport.org/teachers-uni...

www.theguardian.com/business/202... We're really sorry to be blunt, but the gov't is being wilfully stupid. A tree growing is a carbon sink. A tree built into a house is a carbon store. A tree burnt is a #ClimateDisaster. The failure to understand this simple line keeps #Drax's home fires burning.

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... Time to remind judges that evidence about #ClimateChange and its impacts is NOT subjective opinion. He is the one lacking education on this and needs to get properly informed PDQ! Is this inconsistency worth a review @goodlawproject.bsky.social

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... Umm... yes AND no? Yes! Cut levies that support #FalseSolutions like #CCS #Biomass #BECCS, etc. No! Don't cut support for #Retrofit, #WarmHomes and #EnergyEfficiency which should benefit the poorest most! #JustTransition principles are really easy to apply here!

The highest paid MP in the country has suggested that the minimum wage may be “too high” for younger workers 🤷

Climate science is clear: emissions rates must peak in 2025 and go no higher. But misinformation and wishful thinking push politicians – and crucial policy – off course.

Australia has so much clean energy they're literally giving it away. Meanwhile, GOP is in all-out war to stamp out solar www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11...

Did you catch last week’s special edition episode of our podcast? Tune in for expert insights on the government’s new climate plan👉 green-alliance.org.uk/podcast/firs...

New data from Gogel - Fossil fuel expansion continues despite governments’ commitment to “transition away” from fossil fuels at COP28 - 96% of upstream oil and gas companies are still exploring or developing new resources #climatecrisis gogel.org/sites/defaul... gogel.org

😢 "Perhaps the most striking findings is that the British public vastly overestimates the cost getting to net zero by almost 14,000%, fueling scepticism & a reluctance to pay. On average, they estimate it will need 28% of GDP by 2050, compared to @thecccuk.bsky.social forecast of just 0.2%"

But climate action has flatlined in the last few years. This is not a failure of Paris — it’s a clear failure of political leadership. At next week’s COP30 in Brazil, countries will have to face their lack of action and tackle emissions reductions head on. Getting back to 1.5°C is possible.

Ten years on, the Paris Agreement is working—just not fast enough. Our new report tracks 22 ways it’s changing the world: uniting countries behind 1.5°C and net zero, and cutting projected 2100 warming by ~1°C (≈3.6°C → ≈2.7°C). climateanalytics.org/publications...

www.theguardian.com/environment/... So many ways that #corporations capture EVERYTHING in this world - even the #AidBudget. They do not care one iota about preserving #life, #culture, #society. They are really OK with living on a dead planet in a bunker, waiting for the storm to end.

With the US government absent from the COP30 global climate summit, it will be up to others to avert catastrophe go.nature.com/4ofcrH6

No matter which party is in charge, the shots are being called by powerful donors, not ordinary voters. No wonder most people feel so cynical about politics – they’re dealing with a cost-of-living crisis, while politicians from both parties are on the take. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Feature, not a bug, of capitalism—well laid out by C. Wright Mills nearly 70 years ago in The Power Elite.

Let me excerpt the concluding paragraph:

And given many of these tiny water bodies feed larger ones, caring for them improves conditions across the board, a win for all waterways.

Great thread, great report! All the little places are way more important than the big ones where water is concerned. And they need to connect. @froglife.bsky.social @yorkswildlife.bsky.social

www.theguardian.com/environment/... We know #EV is a bridging technology as we invest in public transport, but as the 2nd hand market grows, this will really punish the people for whom the decision is more finely balanced, as they wrestle with the balance between up front and running costs. Not good

Are you listening @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

If you want expensive power a decade from now (that never arrives on budget), by all means choose nuclear. But if you want cheap power as soon as next year, choose wind, solar and storage. The economics are straightforward. #EnergyTransition www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

In any economic system other than this one, that would lead to an immediate change of course.

Well just leave this here as the minimum needed at #COP30... www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Goodness, another tragedy on Oakland's streets. And just in the 10 seconds of b-roll, you see another car rip by the camera at what has to be 60+ mph. It looks sped up until you see other drivers going at a normal speed.

Please take a moment to appreciate this uppercut of authoritative fury from James.

Part of current food inflation is due to climate change. Coffee. Orange juice. Cocoa. Even lettuce. So when will politicians tell the public that climate change hurts everybody in their pocket right now? And even more so tomorrow unless we do something?

Govt policy is so, so, so wrong. There is no alternative to stopping airport expansions if we are at all serious about limiting climate change. That's why we're taking the govt's reckless and irresponsible Jet Zero Strategy to court www.galba.uk/our-campaign...

What's the best use of rocks as a climate solution? Is it grinding them up and spreading them on fields, or is it throwing them at billionaires? Let's go to this meeting and decide.

Checking in with our leading climate scientists….

It's crazy - the govt knows the truth and is simply ignoring it

Ugh. This is not a serious solution. It’s one thing if the device destroys CO₂ (it won’t), but if you have to collect a few kg of CO₂ from more than a billion cars, it ain’t gonna happen. Electric vehicles are fine. Stop trying to keep ICE around.

Jamaica remains in a state of emergency after being battered by Hurricane Melissa, one of the strongest Atlantic cyclones in history. Mikaela Loach, a climate justice activist, says the hurricane was “caused by the climate crisis,” and says hurricanes should be named after oil executives.
