POWER UPDATE: 2025 has officially been confirmed as the third-hottest year on record, despite the presence of La Niña, a climate pattern that should have cooled the planet. That detail matters. Scientists are clear, human-caused warming is now overwhelming natural climate variability. In simple terms, greenhouse gas emissions are driving global temperatures so aggressively that even natural cooling cycles can no longer offset the heat. Key signals from the data: 🔹 The world may fully breach the 1.5°C threshold by 2029 🔹The past 11 years are the 11 hottest on record 🔹Oceans, the Arctic, and Antarctica all registered extreme heat Read more in Japan Times⏬ japantimes.co.jp/environment…

The Guardian view on solar #geoengineering: Africa has a point about this risky technology | Editorial Sun-dimming risks putting the planet’s thermostat under Donald Trump’s control. Better to adopt the precautionary principle with high-stakes science theguardian.com/commentisfre…

🤑 The ugly truth: 🤑 Most of the political and financial support for #geoengineering comes from a small group of elite engineers, a handful of billionaires and politicians (many of them former climate deniers). Get informed: geoengineeringmonitor.org/so…

🧐 Did you know? 🧐 #Geoengineering techniques are largely based on speculation and/or highly questionable carbon accounting methodologies. In effect, they are not real or viable technologies from a climate change mitigation perspective. Learn more: geoengineeringmonitor.org/wh…

COP30 called itself “the Indigenous Peoples’ COP.” But who was inside the gates? 1,600 fossil fuel lobbyists walked freely. This isn’t inclusion, it’s extraction dressed up as diplomacy. The same corporations destroying the Amazon, poisoning water, and displacing Indigenous communities are the ones financing the negotiations and buying the right to continue the damage. Climate solutions already exist in Indigenous knowledge, governance, and stewardship. Capitalism cannot solve the crisis it created. “The ecological collapse caused by capitalism will not be solved with more capitalism.” #COP30 #DefendTheSacred #LandBack

🔴 En el contexto de injusticia, inequidad y tensiones geopolíticas que prima en el mundo, la geoingeniería solar no se puede gobernar ni manejar democráticamente, por lo que su investigación y desarrollo abona directamente a favorecer las desigualdades existentes.

New research confirms a hard truth: #biomass cannot meet industrial #energy demand without serious #environmental costs. Biomass harms forests, soils, and communities. Protecting #forests means being honest about what is truly #sustainable. Read more: thechemicalengineer.com/news…

Stardust anunció haber reunido $60 millones para avanzar un proyecto de geoingeniería que venderá al mejor postor. Es por lejos el mayor proyecto de geoingeniería solar con fines de lucro hasta el momento ⁦por S Rivera. @ETC_Groupjornada.com.mx/2025/11/29/op…

Stardust, a new Israeli company, has announced that it raised $60 million to develop a solar geoengineering project that it will sell to the highest bidder. This is by far the largest for-profit solar geoengineering project to date… geoengineeringmonitor.org/so…

The outcomes of #COP30 expose a process unwilling to confront the structural drivers of the climate crisis. It reproduced the very power imbalances it claimed to remedy, privileging markets over social justice, corporate interests over scientific evidence geoengineeringmonitor.org/en…

Art 6 has never looked more hollow. The weaknesses in the non-permanence and reversal standard, opacity of bilateral trades & prioritization of offsets are political choices. They reflect a world unwilling to confront the root causes of the climate crisis geoengineeringmonitor.org/cd…

🚨 HOME Allliance press conference on 10th Nov at #COP30 🚨 At #COP30, we’re seeing dangerous techno-fixes being positioned as “solutions” to climate & biodiversity crises. Carbon markets under Article 6 are opening doors to risky experiments to enter mainstream discourse.
