As ever-rising numbers of Nepalis migrate to work or study overseas it's hard to remain optimistic about the country's future. But there are strong reasons to stay positive, says @gyanu.bsky.social, co-founder of The Record, Nepal.

Solar panels on all new homes as part of Labour’s net-zero push Sir Keir Starmer rejects Sir Tony Blair’s calls to reset β€˜irrational’ climate policies because they were β€˜doomed to fail’

NEW

Solar panels to be mandated on vast majority of new homes in England

Currently about 40% of new builds have solar; new rules should push that to about 99%

Current national plans are set to deliver only half of the renewable energy growth needed by 2030, leaving a 3.8 TW gap. As the custodian of the #3xRenewables target, IRENA warns that the #UAEConsensus goal will fall short by 34%. bit.ly/3UuUgR5

The obstacles to the reductions needed are political, not physical or technological. Arguments otherwise are a gift to carbon polluters and petrostates.

Big banks predict catastrophic warming, with profit potential Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan and an international banking group have quietly concluded that climate change will likely exceed the Paris Agreement's 2 degree

β€œWe now expect a 3Β°C world,” Morgan Stanley analysts wrote earlier this month. They predicted this would be good for air conditioning stocks. Something it would not be good for? Life on Earth. www.eenews.net/articles/big...

Women bear the brunt of water scarcity and inadequate water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) facilities and services. They also tend to be more adversely affected by water-related disasters. Despite this, women remain underrepresented in decision-making on water resources management and WASH. On average, women comprise only 20% of staff in water utilities globally. To more effectively respond to growing demands for water and sanitation and diverse water needs, water institutions must attract all available talent – including women.

πŸ’§ Water scarcity and WASH challenges
πŸ’§ Gender gaps in decision-making
πŸ’§ Why it's important to tap into all available talent

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

A horizontal bar graph titled "Men speak most in best picture winning films," showing the proportion of words spoken by male and female characters in Best Picture Oscar winners from 1991 to 2016. The graph displays the year and film title, followed by two horizontal bars for each film, representing the percentage of words spoken by women (purple) and men (dark blue). The graph visually demonstrates that male characters consistently have a higher proportion of spoken words compared to female characters across most of the films listed.

How the Klamath Dams Came Down Last year, tribes in Oregon and California pulled off the largest dam removal in U.S. history. This is their story.

β€œJust a few weeks after the dams came down, salmon arriving from the Pacific had pushed through the reconnected river and returned to the frigid upstream tributaries that had been closed to them for decades, navigating the same rills and rapids that their ancestors did.”

Preliminary data suggests that the global average increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration in 2024 will be a record.

Not just a little record, but 25% higher than the previous record.
