Delighted to join Commissioner @GlennMicallef today and share some insights from the work of the @CFG_ThinkTank’s Foresight team. There’s a lot coming down the tracks at Europe’s political leaders and it was a privilege to hear the perspectives of a wide range of groups.
Glenn Micallef@GlennMicallef

🧭 The future doesn’t just happen — we shape it. Today I joined top EU think tanks to exchange ideas on resilience, intergenerational fairness and long-term strategy for the #StrategicForesight Report 2025.

2020: Microsoft sets goal to be carbon negative by end of the decade. 2023: Microsoft's emissions are 30% higher than in 2020. Main cause? The relentless push to meet AI demand, which requires carbon-intensive steel, cement, chips. Story with @dinabass: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

This is cynical beyond belief. The PM is pretending to halt frightening proposals that simply do not exist. He is doing it to turn the environment into a US-style political wedge issue - something the UK has avoided all my political life. Sunak is chucking the environment into a political fire purely to score points. It is reprehensible.

“87% of youth under 30 live in the Global South” I learned this yesterday at the launch of the Chrysalis Youth Fund. That means that when we speak about youth, and support systems for youth, the room should be 87% Global South.
