Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.
Bus (or other public transport) has also been my experience in Europe!
At COPs, countries like Norway, Australia, the U.S. and Canada argue for high climate ambition. Back at home, they have collectively increased oil and gas production by 40% since Paris Agreement. This is why climate negotiation demands shouldn't be interpreted as action

The may explain why no suspect information has been released. The French police have effectively conceded that the theft was not illegal because the items will be used to train large language models.

"Shell and other leading energy groups have abandoned a six-year-long attempt to define a “net zero” emissions strategy after being told that such a standard would require them to stop developing new oil and gas fields, according to documents seen by the Financial Times."
After long presenting heatwaves as fun episodes, with pictures of young people in fountains and swimming pools, European media are now realizing it's not funny anymore.
French TV talked about the worst day instead of the warmest day, and Le Parisien had "Torture" as headline. nos.nl/l/2573263
Bank financing for the fossil fuel sector rose by $162.5 billion in 2024, more than 20% compared to 2023, according to a Rainforest Action Network report.
Experts say the findings demonstrate the limits of voluntary climate-related commitments by the banking industry.
A new study found that the United States was responsible for 55 percent of the pollution emitted by private jets globally.
Until the richest countries commit to ending fossil fuel production + use and deliver adequate climate finance on fair terms, global calls for fossil fuel phaseout will ring hollow to countries that are struggling to meet development, energy access, and climate resilience needs.

While the IEA and IMF issue reports touting the climate-saving potential of AI, here is an example of the real-life, present-day impacts of AI on the climate and public health.

The work equivalent is using AI to write reports based on bullet points which someone else will then use AI to get a bullet point summary of, both because you’re ‘too busy’ to do the writing/reading yourself. What’s even the point of having the long version there then?
"Many of the world’s largest shipping nations decided on Friday to impose a minimum tax of $100 for every ton of carbon dioxide emitted by ships...effectively the first global tax on greenhouse gas emissions."

Helsinki is coal free! And this is not an April Fool’s. 🥳🍾🎉
Today the last coal power plant in Helsinki was shut down, decreasing the city’s annual emissions by 30%.
A privilege to celebrate this concrete win today with the inspiring activists without whom this wouldn’t have happened 🥂💚
Few things kill me inside as much as environmental and humanitarian organisations’ uncritical embrace of the generative AI hype despite all that’s outlined in these slides. Unfortunately for me I encounter it all too often
Around 8% of all international climate finance was provided directly by the US in 2024: International climate finance provided and mobilised by developed countries, 2015-2024. US figures for 2023 and 2024 were announced by the Biden administration in media releases. Other figures for 2023 and 2024 are extrapolations, based on existing pledges and planned reforms to financial architecture expected by 2030. Private finance is missing from the 2015 OECD data. Export credit data is included in the bilateral totals. Source: BRs, BTR, US Department of State, OECD, NRDC.

We have two sufferers in our family (myself and sister) so I cannot agree more. It’s really hard to do but often (radical) rest for a boringly long time helps, even if one doesn’t completely get better. Sending good wishes
Fireworks above an Asian temple-like building
Happy New Year of the Snake 🐍🧧 from my tiny home village where the neighbourhood put together a fireworks show longer and grander than any organised city display 🎆 (it’s all those migrant labourer remittances)
Looking for recommendations! My work is primarily on nineteenth-century colonialism in Southeast Asia, but for a side project I'd like to read up on the role of the region in global labour migration flows in the present day. Tips appreciated from people who know that literature!
If you are feeling overwhelmed, I strongly recommend the livestream of the corpse flower at Sydney Botanic Gardens on YouTube. There are currently 1,500 people in chat waiting for a flower to open, and occasionally claiming that it definitely has moved this time.

I tried to lead an interesting life in a boring world but noooo the world had to be "spicy" so now I'm trying to live a boring life in a chaotic world.
Yeah I know no one wants to talk about the connection between the emissions associated with genocide and catastrophic hurricanes and fire storms but we share an atmosphere
You can’t bomb Gaza and expect not to be touched by it
If you want a snapshot of how things are going at COP29, countries can't agree on what just happened, let alone what happens next.
Wealthy nations are spending six times more subsidizing fossil fuels than what they provide in climate finance to countries in the Global South
