No deal better than a bad deal - Bas Eickhout
At COP30 in Belém, Brazil, Greens/EFA President Bas Eickhout warns that the latest draft agreement shows a major drop in climate ambition, with no reference to phasing out fossil fuels. Eickhout argue...
The current draft agreement being negotiated in #Belém, #Brazil, as part of the UN Climate Change Conference #COP30 shows a significant watering down of ambition.
At this point, no deal is better than a bad deal.

Heatwaves, brought to you by fossil fuels. A map shows temperatures of up to 47°C across Europe. Monday, 25 June 2025.
This heatwave is brutal. Temperatures above 40°C in June across France, Spain, Italy...
We still hear from right-wing politicians that “it’s just summer.” It’s not. This is the climate crisis courtesy of the fossil fuels industry. It’s not normal.

Drought fears for grains growing season mount in Central Europe - Euractiv
Concerns stretch across Eastern France, Germany, Czechia and Poland.
🔥 Droughts impacting #foodsecurity. But hey, let's kill #EUGreenDeal and CAP conditionalities and ignore climate & nature action. Despite more diverse landscape features would make us more resilient! In @euractiv.com 👇 www.euractiv.com/section/agri...

Petit rappel : au moment où nos députés se battent pour entraver le développement des énergies renouvelables, la France est le premier importateur européen de Gaz Naturel Liquéfié venant de Russie.
Une belle vision de la souveraineté.

The EU has released its latest GHG emission inventory, with data up to 2023.
The good news, GHG emissions continue a downward trend, currently 37% below 1990 levels.
The bad news, a significant downward revision of land-use removals (LULUCF).

This is crazy! 👇
Trump is basically threatening any country supporting (already very timid) global efforts to reduce emissions from international shipping with imposing "reciprocal measures" (aka additional tariffs)

So now we expect Macron to throw a big free champagne tasting party at Élysée to boost sales, did I get it right…?

Alors qu'il est 1er ministre, François Bayrou fait un aller-retour en jet privé à Pau pour assister au Conseil municipal. Soit 3 tonnes de CO2eq, plus que le budget carbone cible d'un Français... pour une année entière.
Sans exemplarité, la transition écologique n'a aucune chance d'arriver.
