You cannot build peace on a burning planet.
You cannot eradicate poverty when climate disasters keep throwing people back into it.
You cannot promise young people a better future while destroying the natural systems on which that future depends.

The climate and weather extremes endured by the planet over the course of 2026 will continue into next year, and give “new meaning to off the charts,” according to a new report from the World Meteorological Organization, published Monday as the world’s biggest climate talks begin in Turkey.

Under current policies, the planet will heat up by 2.7C on average by the end of the century compared with preindustrial times, the report by Climate Action Tracker (CAT) found. This is up slightly from a prediction of 2.6C in the group’s analysis conducted last year.

Saving the only planet we have makes good economic sense. There is, after all, no money to be made on a dead Earth.

The world needs to cut carbon emissions by nearly a fifth in the next four years, and by close to half within a decade, to avoid overshooting climate targets by a disastrous margin.

Asian governments are rushing preparations for the most severe El Niño weather event on record, with hundreds of millions of people bracing for multiple crises at once as extreme heat, heavy rain and food shortages hit the region.

Face aux records de température, à la mortalité des forêts et aux sécheresses, ils dénoncent l'illusion d'une adaptation infinie, les milliards d'aides publiques accordés aux énergies fossiles, le cadrage défaillant des médias dominants et la dimension coloniale de la transition énergétique https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHoD1WDMX2A&t#Climat #MassExtinction #ecology #environment #Climate #ClimateJustice #EndFossilFuels #ClimateEmergency #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #ClimateBreakdown
Climat : 4 scientifiques et lanceurs d'alerte face à l'inaction – La Fête de l'Humanité 2026
David Suzuki: Canadians 'have run out of time to delay the radical and deep cuts in emissions that are needed to avoid climate chaos'.
'As UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres says about the emissions causing climate change: "We are digging our own graves" and "we are in a deep climate hole and to get out, we must first stop digging."'

Rising global temperatures caused by the burning of fossil fuels are transforming the world’s forests, wetlands and tundra to the point they are releasing emissions that could further worsen global heating by as much as 30%, a new study has found.

In light of the UK government's recent advice to households to stock up on food and water in anticipation of potential interruption of supplies this winter, I thought I'd do a little thread on #DisasterPrep for people who aren't gun-obsessed misanthropes as someone who has managed water and sanitation for a few ecological fieldwork and bushcraft camps.

El Niño is being supersized before our eyes. The science leaves no room for doubt: the planet is in uncharted waters, and those waters are heating up.
The race now is between rising risks and our commitment to take climate action and protect people. We must win that race.

The International Court of Justice has made it clear – keeping to 1.5C is not a choice, it is a legal obligation. We are not asking for your goodwill. We are not begging you. We are telling you what international law requires of you. End fossil fuel expansion. Your corporate profits cannot be allowed to extinguish our future.

A small chorus of right-leaning critics are trying to convince politicians that climate action is deeply unpopular, downplaying its seriousness in the process. They accept the reality of human-made climate change, but believe the impact of it won’t be as big as people argue, and that policies involved in mitigating these impacts will be expensive and difficult.

Hungary and Romania have been forced to shut down nuclear reactors. They are increasingly relying on expensive power imports as heatwave conditions increase demand for electricity. Both countries use water from the Danube as coolant for their reactors.

The terrifying scenes we’ve seen so far this summer are the latest part of a pernicious long-term pattern.
Across the world, the past 11 years have been the 11 hottest ever recorded – and with a super strength El Niño forming in the Pacific which could pour yet more fuel on the fire, that trend is all but certain to continue.
The climate emergency is here – and no one can say they didn’t see it coming.

#Livestock digestion emits too much #methane:
• People farm too many bovines in India, Pakistan, Brazil, United States, China;
• People farm too many goats in India, Pakistan, China, Nigeria;
• People farm too many pigs in China and the United States.

Extreme heat and its consequences are the result of a fossil fuel policy that is completely irresponsible and extremely dangerous.

What people now nervously call “the new normal” is, in truth, not normal and but a taste of things to come. These extreme weather events we are increasingly experiencing – and the warlike mood they create – represent attacks on our soil.
They are a call to mobilize.

While renewables are cheaper than fossil fuels in nearly all circumstances, fossil fuels are more profitable, because useful reserves are limited and can each be monopolised by a single corporation, while prices can suddenly take flight in times of war or chaos.
Almost all the very rich are heavily invested in them.
