The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) has warned us that the global temperature will rise above 1.5°C, likely within the next few years. This is why we demand governments urgently respond by rapidly transitioning away from fossil fuels and ending forest destruction to minimise the threat.

What does an overshoot of 1.5°C actually mean and what are the consequences of a 1.5°C overshoot? Read more 👇

Why the UNEP 1.5°C overshoot report must be an urgent call to action on climate change

The UNEP’s new report ‘Limiting Overshoot’ outlines a pathway called “overshoot, peak and decline” to minimise and adapt to the impacts of an exceedance and an eventual return to 1.5°C.

Reports about the climate crisis feel faraway when you just look at the numbers. But the deadly Nepal floods showed us what scientists have been warning us about: the climate crisis is here, it’s real, and it will only get worse if we don’t act now.

“Our contribution is made to the Omacom Foundation, not to an individual”

Hello Niléane,

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your questions and concerns about our decision to become a corporate patron of the Omacom Foundation. We value the relationship we have with you, and we want to respond thoughtfully and openly about the purpose of this commitment and how we're approaching it at 1Password.

At 1Password, we support developer and open-source communities because they're an important part of the ecosystem our customers rely on. We have a long history of supporting open source projects, including the Linux, Rails, and Rust Foundations. We chose to support Omarchy because it is a growing Linux environment that developers use and value, and because 1Password already had a meaningful presence in that community.

Contributing to the Omacom Foundation is intended to support hosting infrastructure and provides stable, long-term funding for the upstream open-source projects and maintainers on which Omarchy depends.

We recognize that Omarchy is closely associated with its founder, and that raises questions about what our support means. Our contribution is made to the Omacom Foundation, not to an individual, and is not an endorsement of any individual's personal or political views. 1Password does not endorse hateful, dehumanizing, or exclusionary views.

The patronage is also separate from product decisions. It includes no requirements or guarantees related to product placement, exclusivity, endorsement, or roadmap influence.

We understand that this explanation may not change how you feel about our decision. We take all feedback seriously and share it with the appropriate teams.
Our commitment to the security and privacy of our customers remains unchanged.

We're grateful for the trust you place in 1Password.

Kind Regards,

het is goed even te beseffen dat deze zomer duidende mensen door de hitte zijn gestorven.

Dood.

Had niet gehoeven. Het was niet hun tijd.

Hun dood kleeft aan onze onbekwaamheid iets te doen aan het klimaatschandaal.

My goats love their straw bale playground equipment. And Goatzilla says "yes, these apples you poured out for us are very nice, but can you please hand-feed me instead? I am very spoiled."

Also, my goats would like to tell everyone that genAI fucking sucks.

A bunch of goats climbing up a pile of straw bales that is somewhat in a staircase shape. Several goats are lounging on the upper levels of the staircase, one is standing on the edge, contemplating jumping off. The pile is inside a wooden-sided barn.

A black goat with a white nose and ridiculously long ears gazes intensely at the camera, while all of her goat buddies happily eat from a huge pile of ground-fall apples laying on the grass.

Yeah I've seen a lot of good #dataviz in this space but I'd love a clean graph that showed at-a-glance the % of renewables over time and also the renewables for each year graphed as a % of the total at the beginning of the graph's time period - that would help me intuitively understand when the black line is likely to stop rising and start falling.
