It is getting increasingly interesting... Protesters break into #COP30 Conference venue in Belém. They demand an involvement of indigenous and youth groups in the negotiations. They are not at the negotiation desks and they don't have the lobby power that the fossil fuel industry has 🫤

Can Europe handle cross-border climate risks?🌍 New research reveals critical intervention points for adapting to cascading climate change impacts affecting Europe. Read the paper here🔗: doi.org/10.1038/s415...

2/ First to speak was @ilonamotto.bsky.social presenting newly published work which shows "evidence supporting a tipping point near 25 % of the total population... Near this critical mass, we observe a high likelihood for a social tipping event, where a large majority quickly adopts new norms."

3/ @ilonamotto.bsky.social stressed the need for scientists and academics to help society imagine positive futures, and ended her talk with a quote by the Pan-Africanist revolutionary who served as the President of Burkina Faso.
