  3. As wildfires rage, the world is backsliding on climate action. This can’t go on (The Guardian)

    Even as more than 35,000 wildfires rage across the surface of our world, and as we continue to rewind our planet’s climate so it resembles hotter episodes from its distant past, governments and trading blocs are very deliberately turning away from climate action.

    The latest evidence that we are not only doing too little but actually doing less as time goes by is provided by the climate action media platform, We Don’t Have Time.

  5. 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…

  7. 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

  9. 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.

  11. @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!

  13. @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.

  21. 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!

  23. 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."
