  1. Analysis: Wind and solar power overtake fossil fuels in Germany for first time ever

    More of Germany’s electricity came from wind and solar power than fossil fuels for the first time ever…

  3. More oil pipelines to B.C. coast ➕ oil tanker traffic, adds negative repercussions:
    ➡️more underwater & air pollution
    ➡️potential devastating #oilspill on generations' worth of marine pop.
    ➡️#ClimateChange + warming oceans

    B.C. estuary lost approximately 85% of salmon habitat due to #fossilfuel development and infrastructure, and warming ocean

    Chinook salmon is main food source of the southern resident killer whales:

    🚨only 75 #orcas remain in the world

  5. Recommendation if you like maps and visualisations: The Trade Flow Viewer - made by @swearyanthony - shows you global connections (or disconnections) of some #fossilfuel products in trade. map2711.mopokewing.com/
    You can search for different countries with different "hunger", and also understand better, how countries very distant apart are deeply connected by trade. And see changes in the timeline.

  7. @GeraldKutney If only it was, Gerald! Tell that to Donald #Trump, Andy #Burnham, Kemi #Badenoch, Nigel #Farage, Friedrich #Merz... Even when #politicians acknowledge the #reality of #Climatechange, they refuse to curb #fossilfuel #production & #burning, #deforestation & #Destruction of #wetlands, or make sufficient #investment in #renewable #energy - in Trump's case, OPPOSING IT!

  9. @GeraldKutney Given the amount of #campaign #funding #Conservative #politicians have received from #fossilfuel #companies & #lobbyists, they've been VERY willing dupes indeed! I think you have to embrace concepts like "cognitive dissonance" & "false consciousness" to fully understand what is going on here (apa.org/pubs/books/Cognitive-D; marxists.org/archive/marx/work).

    .Es geht um die politische, wirtschaftliche, demografische und schließlich psychische Niederlage der weißen, westlichen (post-)kolonialen Zivilisation, die die Aussicht auf den Niedergang (die Aussicht auf Ausschöpfung der Natur) nicht akzeptieren kann und der Zerstörung den Vorzug gibt... Frei nach Franco Berardi.

    There are as many energy storage solutions, including molten salts as there are Sun-powered solutions to many of our enegy needs. The Only thing standing in their way (from research to implementation) is the #FossilFuel lobbyists and their corporate masters.

  17. theguardian.com/world/2026/jul. The ordinary people of #Iran go on suffering, #international #law keeps on being broken, yet more #warcrimes are committed - & all so the #fossilfuel #companies can make larger & larger #profits, Vladimir #Putin can make even more #revenue from his #oil & #gas to pay for his #war in #Ukraine, & Donald #Trump can keep on massaging his #SolarSystem sized #ego!

  19. The report #OilCompanies are worried about: #ClimateAttribution science

    New report says our ability to tie weather damages to #ClimateChange is improving.

    John Timmer – Jul 17, 2026

    Excerpt: "Climate change is being driven largely by the greenhouse gases we’ve pumped into the atmosphere, which trap more of the Sun’s energy there. That added energy increases the odds of extreme events: longer, more intense heat waves and droughts, interspersed with excessive precipitation. But these sorts of events have happened in the past—how can we tell if any given weather disaster has been made more likely by the climate?

    "It’s a question with implications for everything from building codes to disaster preparedness. And there’s some good news: According to a report released by the US National Academies of Science on Thursday, the field of climate attribution is growing increasingly mature and can answer some questions for us with far greater confidence than it could just a decade ago. The report also notes that there are still important limits and suggests steps to address them.

    "Overall, this makes it clear that climate attribution is normal, mainstream science. And the #FossilFuel industry views that as a problem, as it could make it easier to hold companies liable for damages. This has triggered a backlash that has Republicans in Congress and state governments threatening the National Academies’ funding."

  21. Oil and gas companies knew. For decades

    New Center for Climate Integrity report, based on internal industry docs, shows #FossilFuel companies have known since at least the 1960-70s their operations were leaking far more methane than they ever disclosed publicly.

  23. @rahmstorf Alas, he does - every single word of it, even though other #Republicans only PRETEND to believe this #fossilfuel #company #propaganda, otherwise known as horse manure. @GeraldKutney.

  24. Why are WE paying for a crisis THEY created? #FossilFuel companies should paying the bill to cool #Europe down. They have, after all, knowingly profited for decades from creating the conditions that make us overheat today. Our #heatwave action plan: greens-efa.eu/en/article/polic

  25. Europe is burning. Again. We need #ClimateAdaptation now. For cool homes, public buildings and cities. The cost? €70B/year. Who pays? #FossilFuel giants. 7% of their yearly revenues could fund it all. They caused this. They must fix it. Our plan: greens.eu/heatwave-action-plan

    The five biggest fossil fuel companies must foot the bill to make sure all public buildings in the EU are heatwave proof, human-friendly, cool spaces.
