Wir haben Eilantrag gegen Gasbohrungen vor #Borkum eingereicht: Gaskonzern One-Dyas will Kabeltrasse ohne Berücksichtigung von Naturschutzaspekten durchdrücken. Dabei steht das gesamte Gasprojekt im diametralen Widerspruch zu Klimaschutz und Energiewende! www.duh.de/presse/press...

Incredible news! 89% of the global public want more climate action, but don't realise they're part of a huge and potentially powerful majority.

#The89Percent aims to fix that and motivate climate delayer* politicians to up their game. Well done @dpcarrington.bsky.social & all involved

New study finds that scientists' engagement in climate protests does not erode their credibility. This supports our previous findings on scientists' advocacy. Thank you for this important contribution @fdabl.bsky.social, @maiensachis.bsky.social, and Adam Aron 👏
🎉 Effects of climate protests by scientists paper published!

Our findings suggest that scientists can engage in public protest without compromising their credibility, but that such actions alone may have less impact than one would like to believe: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

🚨NEW: climate inaction will cost more than a third of global GDP this century, but an investment of less than 2% GDP now will reduce harms by 90% - a "massive opportunity for humanity", finds a report from Boston Consulting Group and University of Cambridge.
Climate Inaction Could Cost 1/3 Of Global GDP This Century, BCG Warns
The Big 3 consulting firm finds that most harms come from productivity losses, but also reveals how nations could avoid 90% of climate damage.

🌍 How can global climate models actually help local decision-makers?

That’s what we explored in our first two World Café workshops with policymakers, other national/local stakeholders, and researchers.

Our new summary brings back the key discussions. Catch up here:
