Exceeding 1.5°C global warming could trigger multiple climate tipping points. First comprehensive analysis of likely temperature thresholds for all known climate tipping elements. Key result from my @ERC_Research project and the @Earthcommission science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

This week, Chile announced a proposed new constitution written by a democratically elected convention, and it is likely the most legitimate constitution in the world, as it is written boldly in the context of the climate crisis. A 🧵on its inspiring climate provisions.

Disappointing news from the European Parliament. By greenwashing gas, the EU sends a wrong signal to the world and undermines its own hard-earned credibility. Make no mistake: this failure will not save fossil investments from becoming stranded assets. 1/4

BREAKING: If you're feeling down by the US Supreme Court ruling on regulation of emissions, cheer up with good, amazing news from Brazil: our Supreme Court has just ruled that the Paris Agreement is a human rights treaty. This has enormous implications for future cases. Why? 🧵

In 2014, this French weather presenter announced the forecast for August 18, 2050 as part of a campaign to alert to the reality of climate change. Now her forecast that day is the actual forecast for the coming 4 or 5 days, in mid-June 2022.

💧We've crossed yet another #PlanetaryBoundary, now 06/10: Freshwater. Plants are suffering from water scarcity caused by human interference into the global water cycle. Whole ecosystems like the #Amazon are starting to partly dry off as a result. nature.com/articles/s43017-0…

Some people complain that raw materials needed for renewable energy creating vulnerabilities similar to those of oil. That's nonsense. Putin's war on Ukraine reminds us it's the other way around: it's our addiction to fossil fuels that makes us vulnerable. 🧵
