Please allow me to re-share my rough sketch of some advanced carbon capture technology
a cartoon with two panels

panel one is a stick figure saying "oh! a fossil fuel!!" standing above a crudely drawn black lump under a brown ground

Panel two is them walking away and saying "I'll just leave it there"

The head of the person is not a drawn circle but the letter O, because the random software I used to draw it did that for unexplained reasons

Københavns Kommune tester i samarbejde med virksomheden New Loop et nyt retursystem for takeaway-emballage. Systemet fungerer med pant - ligesom en dåse eller flaske.

Godt initiativ og nødvendigt for en mere bæredygtig fremtid - lad os få mere af dette 💚

Pant på take-away: Få penge tilbage for din kaffekop udvalgte steder - Danmarks Naturfredningsforening
Et nyt retursystem for takeaway-emballage udrulles som et pilotprojekt. Et vigtigt skridt væk fra brug-og-smid-væk-kulturen, mener Danmarks Naturfredningsforening.

Efter vores børn var flyttet til byen, skulle det store excelregneark i gang, men det ændrede sig heldigvis da Københavns kommune indførte 3 timers parkering, så blev det simpelthen for besværligt for børnene at låne bilen O/N - virkelig ærgerligt 😉

Don't use food for transportation use electricity and give back a lot of land to biodiversity or food production...

NEW: Biofuels globally emit more than the fossil fuels they replace, our latest study shows.

The first-of-a-kind study looks at global biofuels production today and the potential impacts of government biofuel targets.

Ingen overraskelse i tallene når regeringen bruger alt sin vågne tid på at tale forsvar, og konstant har svært ved at levere på klimaområdet. Det er derfor naturligt at man som borger, der må forvente at politikerne har styr på risikovurderingerne, tænker at forsvar må være vigtigere end klimakrisen

This figure is from 2022 so the numbers can have changed some, but I think you get the picture.

We are just producing what the customers want....

Over 1700 lobbyists joined the COP29, tells kind of another story.

"Everyday person" I believe that 90% living in the global north with and average or high income knows what is happening though not in details and definitely not the speed of the changes, but think that they deserve a decent life. I know we need systemic changes but how we live and vote also matters

This just shows how well they lobby the politicians all over the world taking about realism, pragmatism, extreme arguments and that we just have to burn fossils as long as we are making the transition - and then do nothing.... except for being technology optimistic..

Det er da dagens bedste nyhed - indtil videre 👍😀

As of 30 June 2025, a cumulative 3,099 climate-related cases have been filed in 55 national jurisdictions and 24 international or regional courts, etc.
While cases from the Global South still represent less than 10 per cent in 2025, their share is steadily growing.

I believe the optimistic scenario probably isn't very realistic as the emissions won't decrease as fast as we want even though we recently saw some positive results on electricity, China etc.

My question is what did they change in the models and why did they suddenly revise their data?

The heat waves in Europe and the rest of the world is killing people.
Unfortunately the number of excess mortality due to heat will increase significantly in line with rising temperatures.
The way to change this is to stop burning fossil fuels and take serious responsibility for the green transition

The summer is over - and for about 16,600 people across 854 European cities that doesn't mean autumn comes, but death. People who would still be alive if it wasn't for our burning of fossil fuels. - New study with @lshtm.bsky.social www.imperial.ac.uk/grantham/pub...

No, the fossil fuel companies are not working for a green transition, their contributions are marginal.
There is no excuse for them not to take responsibility and ramp up their investments in clean energy - they have a responsibility and they have the means.
So pls start taking it serious now...

Wow, this is good news from Suriname committing to protect 90% of Surinam's forests.
Taking into account that Surinam is covered with approx. 93% forest emphasizes what huge news this is.
Most other countries are not able to protect anything near the same percentage but it sends a strong signal...

Globally, the IEA (International Energy Agency) has lowered their renewable energy growth forecast for 2025-2030 by 5% compared to last year to reflect political, regulatory and market changes since October 2024.

I think there is a theme - or rather a country, to blame for this....

Endnu en rapport har dokumenteret hvad de fleste af os godt ved, naturen i Danmark er bundskraber på såvel Europæisk som verdensplan.
Vi har udnyttet stort set hver en kvardratkilometer, og må nu give noget tilbage til naturen og forbedre biodiversiteten.

The meat lobby works hard to influence politicians, and it is no great surprise that it works.
Farmers are a very small minority in the EU, but they have many "good" friends.

Det kan faktisk kun gå for langsomt med en ambitiøs biodiversitetslov, som vi burde have indført for lang tid siden, som så meget andet….

According to Ember, solar and wind energy have grown faster than electricity demand this year.

This means that green electricity can keep up with the growing appetite for electricity worldwide, but of course we need to see fossil fuels decline faster...

Always a good reason to share positive studies that include both biodiversity and climate.

The European bison is a climate hero increasing the carbon storage in the woods significantly but also a key species that have a huge positive impact on the insects, plants and other species💚
