🧳 Même jour, trajet Barcelone–Londres :
✈️ Avion : 15 €
🚆 Train : 389 €

Ce n’est pas la liberté de choix ! 🚨
C’est une injustice fiscale, un non-sens climatique et cela pousse des millions de personnes vers l’option la plus polluante. 🌏🔥

Carbon emissions from oil giants directly linked to dozens of deadly heatwaves for first time Study shows how individual fossil fuel companies are making previously impossible heatwaves happen and could have to pay compensation

"The carbon pollution from ExxonMobil’s fossil fuels, for example, made 51 heatwaves at least 10,000 times more likely than in an unheated world."

The Story of a Storm Part II: Visualising Conflict and Displacement Data - bellingcat Extreme weather events are increasingly forcing millions of people from their homes. In this guide we will focus on visualising conflict, climate and displacement data.

Driving food insecurity and competition for resources, climate change can indirectly intensify conflict risks. Cornelia Scholz explains how we can analyse trends in climate and conflict data, and understand the risks. www.bellingcat.com/resources/ho...

Our new report shows how EU's proposal to restrict #PFAS is at risk of being hijacked, despite all evidence of its disastrous consequences

We need a lobby firewall to protect PFAS decision-making from corporate lobbying

In the new Trumpian era, liberal democracies must hold their noses – and engage with difficult partners | Timothy Garton Ash New polling says much of the world will welcome Trump. Europe will need to be more transactional abroad – but less so at home, writes Guardian columnist Timothy Garton Ash

“Will pay any amount.”

Feels like one of those futile pleas we’re going to hear from wealthy people more and more in the era of climate change.

What if Russia wins in Ukraine? We can already see the shadows of a dark 2025 Instability is growing, Putin’s hybrid war in Europe is heating up, and for fear of escalation we have encouraged global nuclear proliferation

The conclusion is clear, and depressingly familiar. European democracies’ reluctance to pay a high price now means that the world will pay an even higher price later, writes @fromtga.bsky.social 📝

Who Will Clean Up Shell’s Mess in Nigeria? The energy giant says it remedies spills it’s responsible for. Critics say a proposed sale of a subsidiary could help it avoid paying for countless leaks.

Shell's ultimate Houdini act 🪄

Shell is selling its problem oil assets in Nigeria, leaving behind a legacy of widespread pollution.

But who will pay for #Shell's toxic mess?

Oil giants like Shell shouldn’t be allowed to exploit and run. ❌

It's #MakeAmazonPay day and a good day to remember that Amazon isn't just a threat to worker rights.

Amazon has also been exploiting the businesses on its platform, extracting more and more fees from them.

As Amazon's profits grow, sellers get crushed and prices go up. www.somo.nl/amazons-euro...

Global Freshwater Abruptly Declines The amount of freshwater stored on land and underground has plummeted in the past decade, which might indicate that Earth’s continents have entered a persistently drier phase.

This is kinda mad: between 2015 through 2023, satellite measurements showed that the average amount of fresh #water stored on land — including liquid surface water like lakes and rivers, plus water in aquifers underground — was 1,200 kms3 lower than the average levels from 2002 through 2014 #climate

Make oil and gas companies foot the bill for Valencia’s floods | Letters Letter: Eva Saldaña of Greenpeace Spain says the industry knew about climate change for more than six decades

Excellent letter by Greenpeace Spain making the case that fossil fuel companies should pay for the Valencia floods.

The true cost of carbon is not properly reflected by the ETS price. And the EU still spends ~€50bn/year subsidising fossil fuels.
