Why It Matters

This investigation is an attempt to dismantle Biden-era climate initiatives under the pretense of financial oversight. By using law enforcement to target climate funding, the Trump administration is leveraging the legal system for political gain.

Today’s vote let climate deniers take charge of the EU's 2040 #climate target.

@eppgroup.bsky.social teamed up with the far-right, endangering lives, investments and our credibility at #COP30.

We’re standing firm to defend a strong 2040 #ClimateLaw. Our health, economy and future depend on it.

The move comes after Russell Vought announced last year that the administration intended to break up NCAR, claiming the organization promoted what he described as “climate alarmism.” The court’s decision puts those efforts on hold while the legal challenge moves forward.

Why 2030 Is a Point of No Return for Climate Change

No, the world has not breached the 1.5C global warming target.

It’s a climate target - which means it’s an average that must be sustained over at least a decade.

We currently sit at 1.2 C. Which is already very bad.

The science is clear: every bit of warming matters, every action matters.

A gentle reminder that if we miss the 1.5°C target (and we certainly will), the next target is 1.51°C and not 2°C. We need to keep fighting.

Every tonne of CO₂ emitted makes the job of future CO₂ removal harder, and every 0.01°C of temperature increase makes the world more chaotic and dangerous.

The World Bank had adopted a target: 45% of all new funding should go to "climate beneficial" projects.

The Trump administration bullied it into dropping the target.

Good morning!!

Here's my latest for @crikey.com.au -> one of the reasons the CCA weakened its climate target suggestions is the possibility of uncontrolled data centre growth.

I found the lobbyists already working to sell them as 'climate solutions' in Aus ---->>>>>
How data centre lobbying is shaping Canberra's climate policy, right down to our timid emissions target
Hidden in the fine print on the Climate Change Authority's decision to pull back its emissions target? The role of artificial intelligence and data centres.
