With #COP29, a repost from the bird app:
#Climate, #Ecosystems (incl. #Biodiversity) and #Economy Interactions in the last #IPCC report on impacts.
Takeaway: ecosystems are severely and non-linearly impacted by climate and human society, but are crucial in halting climate change. 🧵 (pic: IPCC, p.4)

No safe solution to #climate & #biodiversity crisis is possible without a global food systems transformation: @forbes.com on new EAT Lancet report. Reshaping food systems could deliver returns of $5 trillion a year through better health, restored ecosystems.

Transforming Food Systems Could Help Tackle Global Warming, Study Finds
The study by the EAT-Lancet Commission warns food systems currently account for nearly a third (30%) of total global greenhouse gas emissions.

Lebensmittelsysteme verursachen rund 30% der globalen Emissionen & könnten allein die 1,5 °C-Grenze überschreiten, selbst ohne fossile Brennstoffe. Umstellung auf gesunde Ernährung, effiziente Produktion & weniger Verschwendung könnte Emissionen halbieren.

The #JuneauIcefield is a deeply meaningful place for me and many others, part of the reason we put so much care into our case study on tipping of Áakʼw Tʼáak Sítʼ (Mendenhall Glacier), one of the icefield's major outlet glaciers.

The study is out today as part of the Global Tipping Points Report.

Reasons for climate optimism – part 4

More people are gradually adopting more sustainable lifestyles, including changes to active travel and vegetarian or vegan diets, which are helping to reduce emissions.

"Eliminating a few percent of the world’s warming is a big deal when the costs are so small. It seems insane to me that such a cheap solution is sitting there, completely untapped."

We could reduce the climate impact of aviation by ≈50% in a few years, and nobody seems to be taking this seriously!
Eliminating contrails from flying could be incredibly cheap
Could we halve aviation's climate impact at a fraction of the cost of sustainable aviation fuels?

Two of the most common climate misconceptions I see, even among knowledgeable folks, are that (1) most people aren't worried about climate change, and (2) if they were, they'd act.

Not true! Data show (1) most people are worried, but (2) they won’t act if they don’t know what to do-and most don’t.
A map of the world showing how levels of worry in most countries are greater than 70%. Source: Yale Program on Climate Change Communication, International Public Opinion on Climate Change, 2023.

🌎 From October 17 to 19, 2025, interested and actively engaged people from all areas of society will come together in Lüneburg to discuss topics related to the climate crisis, learn more, and network. Some of the program is in English, so that also non-German speakers can participate.

German Reunification Day invites both gratitude and reflection.
Gratitude, because the peaceful revolution of 1989 was nothing short of a miracle — a bloodless dismantling of a repressive regime.
Reflection, because the wounds of the transition still mark the country —and because

PS: Skip whatever EPA is putting up instead and e.g. check out interactive.carbonbrief.org/doe-factchec... on the DOE report used in support of the Trumpian argument that climate poses no social cost.
Factcheck: Trump’s climate report includes more than 100 false or misleading claims

Its not just climate science that's wrong in DOE's dreadful climate report - the economics is terrible too!

Environmental economists respond to Trump administration climate report - The Salata Institute
The economists tell the Department of Energy that its findings are “woefully out of date” and rely on “an array of fallacies.”
