Unimaginable horror, pain and death to so very many people, animals and wildlife An absolute #tragedy “New figures from deforestation monitoring site Nusantara Atlas showed an area nearly 12 times larger than London has burned, most of it as drought took hold from June, exacerbated by a strong El Niño cycle” #WakeUpWorld phys.org/news/2026-10-indone…

The top 1% emit more than the poorest 66%. The richest 100 companies are linked to 71% of emissions. This is not about "humanity" failing. It's about a tiny minority profiting.

Today, we adopt our new 🇪🇺 Arctic Strategy. The Arctic is where the tectonic plates of geopolitics collide head-on. It requires us to change our strategic posture. And work with like-minded partners that share our values ↓ xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1nxnRBMMP…

It's frustrating to see UBI discussed as a full replacement for jobs in the context of no jobs to be had. UBI is a floor and a dividend. It is meant to prevent the financial harms and widely share the benefits. There will always be work for people that other people will pay for, and there will always be new challenges for people to tackle. We do need to push hard for both UBI and for aligned AI, or else dystopia is what we will get. Aipledgeforhumanity.org
