A LOT of work goes into these warming estimates. Bravo @climateactiontracker.org Sadly governments are not putting in the same amount of work. They're cooking the planet.

CAT Global Update 2025 🚨 Ten years after the #ParisAgreement we see little to no measurable progress in warming projections - for the fourth consecutive year. The 2035 #NDCs have made no difference to our warming outlook. 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_Global_2...

The IEA's first net zero scenario (NZE), published in 2021, showed emissions peaking immediately and falling to net zero by 2050. Today they published an update. Although we are behind on most things, solar and wind deployment moved EVEN FASTER than the first NZE suggested. A little ray of hope.

Really worth a read!

🚨🚨🚨 NEW REPORT ALERT 🚨🚨🚨 @climateanalytics.org has a new report out today that I’m really excited about. It’s all about 1.5ºC... ▶️ Is overshooting 1.5ºC inevitable? ▶️ Can we still get temperatures back below 1.5ºC? ▶️ If so, how? If you’re interested in our findings, buckle up for a mega thread...

In the lead up to the Overshoot Conference @iiasa.ac.at Sep 30-Oct 2, the organizers had a fantastic nerdy idea to get the leading experts in their fields share their perspectives on the key themes. Highly recommend for your daily commute, background to cooking etc.: open.spotify.com/show/5MpXqh1...

With sufficient data in for July, the year-to-date estimate of India's fossil CO₂ emissions is now +0.3%. See: robbieandrew.github.io/india/

Robbie Andrew@robbieandrew.bsky.social · last yr.

📢India's fossil CO₂ emissions in first half of 2025 up *only* 0.9%. Preliminary data show very slow growth in emissions from both coal and oil, and a decline in natural gas. 🧵

The ICJ gave a remarkably assertive ruling on the obligations of states in tackling climate change yesterday. This story about the grassroots efforts by Pacific islanders to make it happen is really worth a read. www.bbc.co.uk/future/artic...

'Whether you win or lose, some fights are worth fighting': The largest ever climate case's unlikely origins

The UN world court is coming to a conclusion on its largest ever case, which considers states' legal responsibilities to tackle climate change. It all began with a bold student idea.

I’ve started my train-bike-ferry tour from Berlin to Leeds for Scenarios Forum! @priestleycentre.bsky.social So far so good! The train to Amsterdam was long and delayed, but the ride to Rotterdam was beautiful 🚲☀️and I enjoyed calm seas and a distant offshore wind farm on the ferry to Hull 🌬️🚢

Big climate litigation news today on Lliuya v. RWE in Germany. Court rules that major emitters may be held accountable under (German) civil law for climate damages internationally. This has far reaching implications. 1/ @germanwatch.bsky.social www.justiz.nrw/presse/2025-...
