🌍 We’re launching our campaign to reclaim Europe’s public bank for the public good.

Right now, the @eib.org is prioritising competitiveness and corporate profit — instead of people, climate justice, and social equity.

Statement on US Withdrawal from the IPCC by the US Academic Alliance for the IPCC:
Yesterday’s announcement that the Trump Administration intends to withdraw the US from participation in the IPCC, along with a host of other global intergovernmental organizations, is disappointing but not surprising

Rencontre avec des livreurs qui travaillent sous la neige
YouTube video by Vert, le média qui annonce la couleur ! Rencontre avec des livreurs qui travaillent sous la neige

❄️ Alors que la neige est tombée sur une grande partie du pays et malgré les risques de chutes, de nombreux livreurs des plateformes Uber Eats ou Deliveroo continuent de travailler et livrer les clients à vélo.

Absence de protection sociale, prime de risque de 0,90€… Vert est allé à leur rencontre 👇

Men Explain Things to Me <p>Before there was <em>mansplaining</em>, there was Rebecca Solnit's 2008 critique of male arrogance. Reprinted here with a new introduction.</p>

'Every woman knows what I’m talking about.'
Yes, we do, sadly. Thank you @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social.

Il y a 11 millions de Français qui sautent des repas pour pouvoir se chauffer mais ça fait une semaine que ça débat pour savoir s'il faut dire Joyeux Noël ou Joyeuses fêtes. Peut-on arrêter de rebondir sur chaque panique morale de l'extrême-droite et pousser d'autres sujets ?

Lobbyist Claims Monsanto's Roundup Is Safe To Drink, Freaks Out When Offered A Glass
YouTube video by Panteralandia Lobbyist Claims Monsanto's Roundup Is Safe To Drink, Freaks Out When Offered A Glass

This is worth watching. It reminds me of the claim that DDT was "so safe you could drink it." Yet another example of industry recycling refuted claims. @kaurov.org @michaelscherer.bsky.social @davidho.bsky.social

En fait c’est vraiment dingue ce qui est arrivé : 5 bénévoles et 1 juriste ont plus fait ici que des années d’écologie du spectacle qui ne mène à rien.

Il faut se former, saisir la justice et faire payer toutes celles et ceux qui sabotent notre avenir.

On a parlé, avec raison, des centaines de lobbyistes favorables aux énergies fossiles qui ont envahit la #COP30

On évoque moins les influenceurs qui poussent une technique controversée : le captage-stockage de CO2.

🌀 Climate change made #HurricaneMelissa more intense.
📈 Up to 10% wetter (💧+14 mm/day)
💨 Up to 10% windier (+8 km/h)
Our new @climameter.bsky.social study shows that natural variability alone can’t explain these changes — human-caused warming is a key driver.
