  1. A Plan for Equality & Prosperity Within Planetary Boundaries
    A habitable world is possible

    "The Global Justice Report is part of a broader international agenda for planetary habitability, social justice, and reform of the global financial architecture."

    "The Global Justice Project attempts to set out a new vision for global progress in the 21st century: grounding human development and equality in planetary habitability. It explores the conditions under which the world could move toward this horizon and traces an economically and ecologically consistent transition path from 2026 to 2100." >>

    Summary: The Global Justice Report
    A Plan for Equality & Prosperity Within Planetary Boundaries
    "It is possible to reconcile planetary habitability and high well-being for all, but only if the transformation rests on three pillars simultaneously. Fast decarbonization of energy systems is necessary. But we also need a major shift toward sufficiency – understood as a sharp reduction in labour hours and material footprint and large changes in consumption patterns, food habits, land use, and forest cover. In addition, neither decarbonization nor sufficiency can be financed and politically sustained without a drastic reduction in inequality of income, wealth and power, both between countries and within them. The compression of global inequality is not only compatible with deep decarbonization; it is a necessary condition for shared prosperity on a finite planet." >>

  3. Abundant interactions and feedbacks between aquatic #deoxygenation and the other #planetaryboundaries suggest “unsafe” levels of oxygen loss with far‐reaching impacts - Ferrer - 2026 - Limnology and Oceanography - Wiley Online Library

  5. A longish article on aquatic deoxygenation driven by #GlobalWarming , but the abstract is brief and worth reading.

    Our understanding of the problems and risks of #ClimateChange continues to develop as researchers build on earlier discoveries. And the more we understand the complex web of interactions, the more obvious it becomes that we need more significant, more rapid action to address the root causes of #GHG emissions.

    We have the technologies to make most of the needed changes #NOW - what we don't have is the sense of urgency or political leadership necessary to make it happen. Why?

  9. De aarde staat op instorten – en AI versnelt het.

    In 2009 introduceerden wetenschappers de planetaire grenzen: 9 kritische drempels die onze planeet leefbaar houden. We hebben er al 6 overschreden. Gevolg? Extreme weersomstandigheden, voedseltekorten, watercrisissen en massale migratie. De aarde verliest haar vermogen om schokken op te vangen.

    Maar er is een onzichtbare boosdoener die deze crisis versnelt: AI.

    🔥 Energieverslinding: Datacenters slurpen stroom – vaak op fossiele brandstoffen.

    💧 Wateruitputting: Miljarden liters water gaan op aan koelsystemen voor servers, in regio’s die al droog staan.

    ⚠️ E-waste explosie: Verouderde hardware belandt als giftig afval in ontwikkelingslanden, waar het grondwater vergiftigt.

    🌍 Overconsumptie: AI drijft hyperconsumptie aan – meer productie, meer afval, meer uitputting van de aarde.

    AI is geen oplossing. AI is een bedreiging.

    De keuze is duidelijk: of we remmen de ongeremde groei van AI af, of we accepten dat we de planeet verder de afgrond in duwen.

  11. Dépassement de capacité et correction démographique

    Plusieurs études convergent vers l’idée d’un monde déjà en #Overshoot : limites planétaires franchies, capacité de charge dépassée, risque de #Collapse au milieu du XXIe siècle. Certaines modélisations évoquent même une forte contraction démographique si aucune transformation majeure n’intervient. #PlanetaryBoundaries #SystemicRisk #ClimateCrisis Un ensemble d’études récentes dessine une même toile de fond :…

  13. A new study suggests we may be living beyond what the planet can support after analyzing two centuries of data. #planetaryboundaries

    sciencedaily.com/releases/2026

  14. Environmental problems will *never* go away. Not while we are so "successful" in colonizing every nook and cranny of the planet, invading and destroying biological ecosystems and inorganic structures.

    What will be a catalyst towards #sustainability is not solving specifically for #climatechange or (celebrated today) #biodiversityday but learning to solve the *entire category*.

    Which means inventing tools, contracts, institutions etc. that make living within #planetaryboundaries the norm.

  16. Sehr empfehlenswertes PIK-Video: Rockström zu #PlanetaryBoundaries Science

    In Folge 1 der Video-Serie “Zentrale Forschungsthemen des PIK" erklärt Direktor Johan Rockström das Rahmenwerk zur Stabilität der Erde und zum sicheren Handlungsraum der Menschheit.

  18. Like #EarthOvershootDay the #DoomsdayClock is a metric driven by good intentions but done with a questionable methodology. Where Overshoot Day fails to capture huge problems like species extinction, there’s no scientific method what a second or hour on that “clock” means. Climate change, cited in the current decision to move the clock four seconds forward, will lead to long-lasting suffering by billions, but not human extinction. There are better metrics, like #PlanetaryBoundaries.

  20. I can highly recommend watching this YouTube #video/ listening to the #podcast by Nate Hagens with Johan Rockström! youtube.com/watch?v=JaboF3vAsZs

    Here are some takeaways from the podcast:
    Johan Rockström is explaining the nine #PlanetaryBoundaries 🌍 and that 6 out of 9 have been transgressed ⚠️.
    We are in a planetary #emergency 🌍🤒, meaning that we are facing unacceptable risks and we are running out of time. ⌛️ But it's not too late.
    Talk 🗣 to your friends, colleagues & family about the planet!

  22. #Grönland im Fadenkreuz: Ressourcenrausch vs. ökologische Kipppunkte

    Trumps Interesse an Grönland markiert einen neuen “grünen Extraktivismus“.

    Ökologisch droht die Überschreitung **planetarer Grenzen** .
    Brauchen wir ein radikales **„Unthinking“** veralteter Handelstheorien.

  23. “Involuntary parks” — lands emptied by war, pollution or conflict — can become accidental refuges for wildlife.

    From the radioactive Hanford Reach to the disputed Kuril Islands, nature sometimes rebounds without people, raising difficult questions about conservation, recovery and responsibility.

  25. @peterdutoit thank you for sharing, Peter. It's interesting and I wonder, how this will impact global temperatures and the earth's energy-system(s).

    I stumbled about the x-achis though and didn't promptly recognised it's meaning, so I add the abbreviations for all: these are the three-month climate periods (climate seasons), starting with DJF = december to february and so forth.

  27. The end of 2025 must be the end of the inane rule of climate ‘optimism’

    resilience.org/stories/2025-12

    We should admit that widely-mandated climate optimism has been actively harmful to the needful acknowledgement of reality - and to the active collective self-protection that we now desperately need to get serious about making happen.

  29. Greenhouse Gas Emission Data: Public, difficult to access, and not always correct

    @hanno dives deep into #OpenData. I especially liked his approach of constructive-critical thinking in pursuing the datasets he studied. I am a beginner in #DataScience (just started my first Python curse) and this was most informative and intriguing. Also liked his bridges and helpers for beginners as me:

  34. "Manufactured risks are the product of human activity." Ulrich Beck

    " A "risk society"
    is a sociological concept describing a stage of modernity where society is increasingly defined by and organized around managing the hazards and insecurities it has produced itself through modernization and industrialization.

    Self-produced risks: The primary source of risk is not nature, but human actions and the unintended consequences of modernization itself.

    Individualization: Individuals are increasingly forced to confront these risks personally, with a greater emphasis on individual choice and responsibility in the face of larger, systemic problems

    Ulrich Beck defines it as "a systematic way of dealing with hazards and insecurities induced and introduced by modernisation itself". "

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_soc

    " The Study of Existential Risk
    frames the rises and falls of civilisation around the idea of the “Goliath”, a hierarchy that dominates labour and energy through coercion and violence."

    "Our research shows how there are nascent attempts to embed citizens into decision making by re-plumbing democracy, flattening hierarchies and constructing more dynamic feedback loops that have real consequence."
