Can the world quit coal?
Nearly a third of all countries worldwide have pledged to phase out their unabated coal-burning power. But China and India are still adding coal plants – for now.

I've always believed in intentionally exposing myself to difficult situations. Public speaking. Pitching to publishers. Interviewing senior policymakers.
The reasoning is simple: If you don't try, you don't win. If you don't fail, you can't grow.

Most CEOs see fragile states as a risk to be avoided.
But could they be the single greatest untapped market for European business, especially in regards to climate-resilient investments?

Vital debate at the Bled Strategic Forum on the nexus of #water, peace & #security.
My key message: We must treat water as the political issue it is. While climate change raises the stakes, conflict is not destiny. Evidence-based, preventive action can build pathways to peace.

Europe is rushing to rearm. But what if it's preparing for yesterday's world?
In a great new piece by @Zetland, I argue that ignoring climate change undermines the very security we're trying to build. We don't have the luxury of sequencing threats. 🧵
