NEW from me: China’s CO2 emissions have plateaued since March last year thanks to record clean energy additions. Emissions grew by an estimated 0.8% year-on-year in 2024, but were lower than in the 12 months to February 2024. 🧵on China's emissions trends in 2024 AND 2025 👇

Have you ever wondered why some cities are just so much nicer than others? Well, it's probably because they have good "Third Places." What is a Third Place? It's wherever you go when you're not at home or at work...

Wow – the world will add a record 440GW of new renewable capacity this year, says @IEA update That's 24% more than it said just six months ago – and double what it expected in 2020 It also includes an "accelerated case" where growth reaches 500GW this year 🤯

I really wish the ubiquitous GHG #decoupling charts were better news than they are (as it would make things much easier) but unfortunately they fall foul of the 'fallacy of composition' and are fostering a dangerous complacency about climate change efforts. 🧵

Why read a self-help book published in 2023 when you could read one that was a best seller for 1,500 years? This is the Consolation of Philosophy, written by a man called Boethius while he was in prison, awaiting execution, in 523 AD. Here are its 8 most powerful ideas:

I’ve been seeing a lot of talk recently that it’s certain that we will fail to limit global warming to #1o5C. I don’t think the scientific evidence supports such claims and I would urge caution before drawing absolute conclusions. A thread 1/

Solar and wind have seen huge drops in cost over the last decade according to @IPCC_CH. Solar ⬇️ 85% Wind ⬇️ 55% But skeptics often state that using levelised cost of energy (LCOE) as a metric is meaningless because it ignores cost of integrating solar and wind. A response. 🧵
