The left opposition in Venezuela deserves our solidarity, not despite their criticism of the Maduro government, but because of it. The left that abandons its own critics is a left that has lost its way, writes Daniel Chavez: www.tni.org/en/article/s...

Military spending is soaring, while spending on meeting social needs is on the chopping block. Governments often justify this spending by saying it will create jobs, but what if the workers had a say? Fifty years ago, employees at Lucas Aerospace came up with an alternative plan: bit.ly/4kvI5gP

NATO plans to spend $13.4 trillion on the military over five years. That’s enough to give every person on Earth $1,675 or to meet global climate finance needs. The emissions from this buildup would equal those of Brazil and Japan combined. www.tni.org/en/publicati...

This week, NATO will meet in the Hague. @tninstitute.bsky.social have prepared a report on the climate impacts of the massive increases in NATO's new spending goal of 3.5% of GDP. NATO plans to spend $13.4 TRILLION by 2030. You can find the full report here: www.tni.org/en/publicati...

Join our six-week online course that invites you to reimagine urban life through the lens of post-growth thinking, an approach that recognises that more GDP doesn’t always mean better lives, especially when it comes at the cost of social equity and ecological survival. www.tni.org/en/event/cit...

NATO’s new 3.5% GDP spending goal is a danger for people and the climate. The massive increase in military expenditure is already weakening Europe’s climate and environmental goals. www.tni.org/en/publicati...

The NATO spending goal is a huge threat for the climate. NATO military expenditure has surged by 25%in 2024 while the corresponding estimated military carbon footprint has increased nearly 40%. www.tni.org/en/publicati...

The same keyword can mean dignity to one group and dispossession to another. Land politics isn’t just about land—it’s about who gets to define the terms. www.tni.org/en/article/p...
