Catch our latest webinar on tipping points!

This session focused on boreal forests, the band of coniferous forests encircling the globe just below the Arctic. 🌲

Rising temps put the edges of these ecosystems at risk, causing them to shift north.

During COP30 Earth Commission co-chairs Johan Rockström & Fatima Denton warn: we’re at a planetary crossroads.

They write that we need:
🛢️ Near-zero fossil fuels by 2040–45
💰 real climate finance
🌳 forest protection
📉 CO₂ cuts by next year

🌎 COP30 must seize the moment to integrate climate and biodiversity governance – treating them separately is a recipe for failure. This is emphasised by Earth Commission scientists in an upcoming paper.

⚡️ At #COP30, science is clear: humanity must live w/in Safe and Just Boundaries.

In Belém today, we explored how protecting nature 🌱, reducing inequality 🤝, and building shared prosperity 💡 can guide us toward that goal. Our panel united experts working to align climate policy w/the latest science.
November 12, 2025 at 4:49 PM
🇧🇷 Tomorrow at COP30 in Belém!

Join us and our co-chairs for a discussion on the science of Safe and Just Boundaries, the protection of our global commons, and why understanding that everything is connected is essential to tackling climate change!

🪸🌊 “It’s a difficult situation, but not hopeless.”

Marine heat reached record highs in 2024 — pushing coral reefs to the brink. The Global Tipping Points Report 2025 warns that the die-off of warm-water reefs is now underway, marking the world’s first climate tipping point.

The evidence is piling up. The oceans' circulation systems risk “tipping” in a warming climate. For the monsoon systems, the scientific evidence for tipping is less clear, according to a new review article. But even smaller shifts in rainfall patterns can have widespread social and economic impacts.
New study flags tipping risks in ocean circulation - Earth Commission
Growing evidence shows that the oceans' circulation systems can tip in a warming climate. The evidence is less clear for the monsoon systems.
