Temperature records broken as extreme heat grips parts of Europe Unprecedented temperatures causing difficulties in south-west France, Croatia, Italy and Spain with wildfire destruction across Europe up 87%

Temperature records are going to keep getting broken until morale improves (or until we stop burning fossil fuels).

Motherfucking wind farms…

U.N. court rules countries have duty to limit greenhouse emissions The court was asked to rule on whether nations are obligated under international law to protect the Earth’s climate from planet-warming emissions.

The new ruling by the UN court on climate action is a game changer.

The decision speaks to both mitigation and Loss and Damage from the effects of climate change.

How Climate Justice Reached the UN’s Top Court—and Won The International Court of Justice’s ruling that countries have a legal duty to curb climate change was the result of a years-long campaign that began with university students.

The International Court of Justice declared that states have legal duties—not just moral ones—to protect the climate. This landmark opinion, writes @panthealee.bsky.social, is part of a years-long campaign that began with university students.

Must-read for all EU climate politics nerds: @ziaweise.bsky.social with an update on the nuances of the unfolding parliamentarian political battle over the new EU 2040 target.

Originally developed for the US, the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF) is now used to analyze EU policy. As EU policymaking differs, this paper by F. von Malmborg examines limits of applying ACF to supranational contexts. Link in comments! #PolicyStudies #policyprocess #publicpolicy #polisci #AFC

Fantastic insights at the @greendealnet.eu conference. Touched on the role of #democracy and #climate policy, the clean industrial deal, the near future of EU climate policy, and the #social justice aspect of #EU climate policy, ending with an exhibition and participative performance!

I'm happy to have contributed to this new ACF book in a small way. Check out our chapter on antecedents of policy change, led by the fantastic @allegrafullerton.bsky.social!

This is incredibly excellent — everyone, please watch and share widely!

And I say that not at all because I consulted on the script with the brilliant showrunners haha 😂😇

Youth Climate Activists Sue Trump Administration Over Executive Orders

“Trump’s fossil fuel orders are a death sentence for my generation,” said Eva Lighthiser, 19, the named plaintiff. “I’m not suing because I want to. I’m suing because I have to. My health, my future, and my right to speak the truth are all on the line.” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/29/c...

EPIC!

I'll be chairing this event later. Registration closes two hours before the event, so there's still a bit of time to register.

Congratulations!

The EU’s 2030 climate and energy goals are within reach, but stronger national plans are needed.

ECNO’s updated briefing on 22 final updated NECPs highlights key opportunities for a climate neutral economy.

Some encouraging figures from IRENA’s latest report: renewable energy continues to dominate new capacity additions, accounting for 93% of all installations in 2024. The annual growth rate of renewable installations reached a record 15.1%(just below the 16.6% annual growth needed from now until 2030)
