Wildfires in Europe are becoming more frequent, more intense, and lasting longer.
Between 8 and 25 August, wildfires burned nearly 600,000 hectares in Portugal and Spain alone – a land area over twice the size of Luxembourg.
We thank 🇨🇿🇩🇪🇫🇮🇫🇷🇬🇷🇮🇹🇲🇹🇳🇱🇷🇴🇸🇪🇸🇰 for supporting Portugal and Spain in their fight against the wildfires that affected both countries.
We are working hard to anticipate risks and strengthen preparedness.
The EU is getting ready for anything, anywhere, anytime.

According to latest data the AMOC slowdown/shutdown is expected till 2050 with ~59% probability.
I expect that much earlier. 10 years are really optimistic methinks. Let's see, what the effects will look like.

There are many methods we can use to tackle the #climateCrisis#climateChange by reducing our dependency on #fossilFuels
Personally, I am inclined to embrace #Kyiv's method for doing so:
Just fucking bomb the refineries
💪 😤 🇺🇦
"#Ukraine knocks out 17% of #Russia’s oil capacity — and that’s just this month, Reuters says
#Moscow’s #energySecurity unravels as Ukraine escalates long-range attacks on its most vulnerable assets."

“‘We cannot do it the way our fathers did’: farmers across Europe struggle to adapt to the climate crisis. As wildfires rage in southern Europe and crop losses only set to increase in the coming years, producers are getting creative to beat the heat.” It’s pretty obvious if we don’t stop burning fossil fuels we are going to starve. But sadly oil makes too much money for the super rich. So …. #ClimateCrisis#Capitalism
Why do wind farms attract so much misinformation and conspiracy theory?
Like 19th century fears that telephones would spread diseases, wind farm conspiracy theories reflect deeper anxieties about change. #ClimateChange#ClimateCrisis#GlobalWarming

Seattle Worldcon 2025 was an incredible experience! A huge shout-out to everyone who came to every panel with the word "solarpunk" in it like it was their job. ✊
My big takeaway is that we're all looking for hopeful visions of the future - the people want solarpunk! So honored to be able to present my research and network with amazing authors & organizers in such a beautiful city.

It’s ironic that the West initially believed it would spearhead the renewable energy transition and reap the economic rewards.
Yet, as soon as it became clear that China would lead the renewable revolution, their feigned commitment to environmentalism evaporated almost overnight.
Suddenly, Western governments began doubling down on fossil fuels and imposing sweeping bans on Chinese-made solar panels and wind turbines, prioritizing geopolitical competition over climate action.
Bacterial pneumonia, which usually recurs each summer in the US’s largest city, has sickened more than 100 people and killed five in a growing outbreak.
Climate change is both helping to make the disease more plentiful in the places where it already exists and creating the potential for it to move to new places where the population may not be accustomed to it.

If you only read one thing today, this is it
"If you want to overwhelm the system in a shorter time frame and shove the carbon cycle dangerously out of equilibrium, you need a much more intense infusion of CO2 into the oceans and atmosphere – faster than biology or weathering can save you. The modern global industrial effort to find, retrieve and burn as much ancient carbon buried in the Earth’s crust as possible in a matter of mere centuries might be up to the task." #climatecrisis
