DWD-Attributionsstudie zum Hitzeereignis im Juni 2026 zeigt: Ein solches Ereignis wäre in einem um 1,3 °C kälteren Klima nicht möglich gewesen. Erwärmt sich das Klima um weitere 0,7 °C auf 2,0 °C, nimmt die Intensität ähnlicher Hitzewellen demnach deutlich zu. 💡 Zur Studie: t1p.de/or6dj

Veimme kesälomalta palaavalle pääministeri Petteri Orpolle artesaanityönä valmistetun, suuren mehiläisen. Sen mallina on Suomessa äärimmäisen uhanalainen kultamaamehiläinen. Toimitimme jättiläismehiläisen seremoniallisesti Eduskuntatalon edustalle tänään 2.8. kello 19.

Vain 11 minuuttia kestänyt tieblokki päättyi siihen, että poliisit kantoivat jättiläismehiläisen pois ajoväylältä. Lisäksi poliisi otti kiinni 7 rauhallista mielenosoittajaa. Kaikki kiinniotetut vapautettiin 1,5 tunnin sisällä kiinniotosta. Elokapina katsoo, että kiinniotot olivat perusteettomia.

The Aral Sea may be one of the planet’s greatest environmental disasters. We drained an inland sea, created a toxic desert, and a massive source of carbon emissions.

The Aral Sea isn't just an ecological nightmare — it's a carbon bomb

Most of this inland sea is a dry lakebed the size of Ireland, and it has already released 748 million metric tons of CO2.

Universities must be supported to lead on climate action

One critical public investment we can make to reduce devastating future societal costs is to dramatically increase third-level funding
