Climate critics try to discredit IPCC author for linking disasters to global warming Roger Pielke Jr. and oil industry supporters are attacking climate scientist Friederike Otto, whose work has been used in lawsuits against polluters.

The New York Post has been honest brokered.

The IPCC is lucky to have @frediotto.bsky.social as a coordinating lead author.

“As it’s very clear from the themes of this conference, we don’t altogether understand how the Earth would react in taking
carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. We don’t understand the nature of the irreversibilities”

por enquanto, a transição energética está sendo uma acúmulo energético, com solar e eólica crescendo e fóssil estabilizada. Sem acabar com combustível fóssil, não adianta nada acrescentar outras fontes, o planeta vai continuar aquecendo do meso jeito. (e se depender dos EUA, só piora)

Global Electricity Mid-Year Insights 2025 | Ember Solar and wind outpaced demand growth in the first half of 2025, as renewables overtook coal’s share in the global electricity mix.

"The increase in solar and wind power outpaced global electricity demand growth in the first half of 2025. Solar alone met 83% of the rise (...). Fossil fuels remained mostly flat, with a slight decline. Fossil generation fell in China and India, but grew in the EU and the US."

Why The Global South Can't Go Green The structural traps keeping them in debt

"The global north is currently extracting $2 trillion annually from the global south, a number which far outstrips the annual $100 billion in climate finance promised by the global north at Copenhagen’s COP in 2009."

Four central climate components are losing stability Four of the most important interconnected parts of the Earth's climate system are losing stability. This is shown by an international scientific study.

"We now have convincing observational evidence that several interconnected parts of the Earth system are destabilizing."—Niklas Boers (TUM)

Trump to designate anti-fascist Antifa movement a ‘major terrorist’ group US President Trump describes group as a ‘dangerous, radical left disaster’ as well as a ‘major terrorist organisation’.

There is no organisation called antifa, it's an idea. What Trump is doing is trying to criminalise *anyone* who opposes fascist regimes, like his.

E.P.A. To Stop Collecting Emissions Data From Polluters

A tática de trump de apagar os registros (e aqueles que os produzem)

The U.S. set the stage for a coup in Chile. It had unintended consequences at home When the U.S. role in the 1973 coup in Chile became known, activists took action. So did U.S. lawmakers. This is what happened after the U.S. helped topple a Marxist and aided a right-wing dictator.

speaking of political assassinations, today we denounce again the dark beginning of neoliberalism, the assassination of Salvador Allende in Chile, a military coup backed by United States.

'The U.S. spent $8 million on covert actions between 1970 and the 1973 coup'.

In tech we trust: A history of technophilia in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) climate mitigation expertise This article examines the technocentric bias that characterizes climate mitigation literature, focusing on the reports of the IPCC's Working Group III…

I found this history fascinating, especially how the US under Bush I a) pushed to create the IPCC to center government representatives, not scientists, in UN climate action; b) used the IPCC to block binding emission targets and carbon taxes on rich countries, which seemed imminent in 1988.

Armazenar carbono é menos útil, mercado de carbono é menos últil, a única coisa útil, nesse caso, é acabar com os combustíveis fósseis.
O resto é comprar tempo que não existe.

The projections of the amount of heating we're seeing have been spot on. But all the projections of the *impacts* of that warming have been way, way lowballed. Let's not do that any more.

"78% se disseram muito preocupados e quase 90% afirmaram acreditar que as emergências climáticas podem acabar com a vida humana na Terra. (...) Outro comportamento detectado foi o uso excessivo da internet: cerca de 70% reconheceram que não conseguem reduzir o tempo on-line"

España se adentra en la segunda semana de ola de calor con la resistencia bajo mínimos después de ocho jornadas de temperaturas muy altas. Lo más probable es que el episodio de calor extremo dure hasta el miércoles

"Israel assassinou o jornalista Anas Al-Sharif e toda a sua equipe da Al-Jazeera em Gaza hoje. O CPJ alertou sobre a campanha de difamação israelense contra ele, mas poucos veículos ou jornalistas ocidentais se manifestaram em defesa dos colegas palestinos. O silêncio deles é covarde e vergonhoso"

Mais uma pesquisa de opinião que não quer dizer...NADA. Empresas de pesquisa e seus questionários estão sendo usados para "validar" discurso eleitoral: polarização entre PT e bolsonarismo (nem é partido) atrapalha o Brasil. Propaganda contínua e repetição discursiva, numa mídia de autoridade.
