El Niño is arriving on our doorstep in the coming months with 90% certainty.
The world must treat it as the urgent climate warning it is.
The only effective response is #ClimateAction equal to the crisis – ending the addiction to fossil fuels, accelerating the shift to renewables, protecting the most vulnerable, and delivering early warning systems for all.

The #beagle nose has approximately 225,000,000 scent receptors. They are exceptionally useful for identifying the last snack their human ate without sharing. #beaglefacts

The answer is indeed beneath our feet 🌱
To be honest, I cancelled my Amazon Prime subscription a while ago. Something about 'democracy dies in darkness' and that twat in the States.
But then I saw the trailer for Groundswell and I’m temporarily reactivating it. Why? 👇

To scale, we need rock-solid foundations: • Trusted data that tells the real story • Field-level evidence for arable farmers to make better decisions • Measurable proof of impact across the entire food chain
That’s the data layer we are building.

The trailer convinced me to reactivate, even if it means putting a few more euros into Jeff Bezos' pocket. 😉
Check out Groundswell on Prime Video. Will you join us in accelerating this transition?

More than a decade after the Paris Agreement, greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, accelerating climate change.
Humanity still has time to act #NowForClimate and curb these emissions.

Too hot. Too dry. Too wet.
The world is feeling the impacts of climate change.
But everywhere, solutions are scaling, and momentum is building.

Over 75% of the world’s food crops need pollinators.
Yet, bee populations are declining due to:
🔸habitat loss
🔸climate change
🔸excessive use of pesticides
Our fertiliser plan promotes healthier ecosystems vital for bees’ survival.

ALT The image features two colourful illustrations of a market stand with various fruits and vegetables. The top one has warm, joyful colours, with many bees flying around and baskets filled with fruit. The bottom part, painted in blue, gives a cooler feeling and features fewer bees and produce, with the text 'less bees = high fees'. There is a European Union logo in the bottom right corner.

Europe is swinging from Arctic frosts to near-35°C heat within days. Some parts will warm by ~15°C in a week. Agriculture does not thrive under violent thermal instability. Ecosystems depend on stability, not a whiplash. This is what climate instability looks like in practice.

Let’s make a buzz for the bees! 🐝
These tiny pollinators give us more than honey, they support our health, provide medicine and jobs, and help keep the planet beautiful and thriving.

Ecosystems are among our most powerful allies in the fight against climate change.
Protecting and restoring these ecosystems is a smart, costeffective climate action and essential to achieving the #GlobalGoals: unep.org/interactives/biodiv…
