Lancée en avril 2025, l’organisation russe intitulée Global Fact-checking network (GFCN) soutient vouloir lutter contre la désinformation. Mais parmi la soixantaine d'experts membres du réseau, plusieurs sont des relais réguliers de désinformation en ligne. Décryptage.

À l’échelle mondiale, nous venons d’épuiser notre quota de ressources planétaires pour l’année 2025, alerte ce mercredi l’ONG Global footprint network, qui actualise chaque année la date de ce «dépassement». Cette fois, le couperet est tombé un jour plus tôt que l’an dernier, soit la date la plus précoce jamais annoncée par l’ONG.

Since Donald Trump's presidential election victory, major tech companies have abandoned years of policies restricting military work and sought out lucrative defense contracts and deeper connections with the Pentagon.

Why is the “direct-air-capture” pioneer Climeworks taking the drastic step to cut 20% of its global workforce?

La société suisse, pionnière de l’aspiration du dioxyde de carbone dans l’air, traverse une mauvaise passe : sa technologie est mise en doute et elle a annoncé être contrainte de réduire ses effectifs.

Climeworks, le spin-off de l'ETH Zurich, a attiré de puissants investisseurs avec ses gigantesques "aspirateurs à CO2". Aujourd'hui, de sérieux problèmes font surface et des licenciements sont attendus. Depuis plusieurs années, une idée suisse pour atténuer le changement climatique attire l'attention, le respect et beaucoup d'argent. Avec ses installations qui aspirent le CO2 de l'air, Climeworks a jusqu'à présent récolté 810 millions de dollars américains.

We develop roadmaps to transform the all-purpose energy infrastructures (electricity, transportation, heating/cooling, industry, agriculture/forestry/fishing) of 139 countries to ones powered by wind, water, and sunlight (WWS). The roadmaps envision 80% conversion by 2030 and 100% by 2050. WWS not only replaces business-as-usual (BAU) power, but also reduces it ∼42.5% because the work: energy ratio of WWS electricity exceeds that of combustion (23.0%), WWS requires no mining, transporting, or processing of fuels (12.6%), and WWS end-use efficiency is assumed to exceed that of BAU (6.9%). Converting may create ∼24.3 million more permanent, full-time jobs than jobs lost. It may avoid ∼4.6 million/year premature air-pollution deaths today and ∼3.5 million/year in 2050; ∼$22.8 trillion/year (12.7 ¢/kWh-BAU-all-energy) in 2050 air-pollution costs; and ∼$28.5 trillion/year (15.8 ¢/kWh-BAU-all-energy) in 2050 climate costs. Transitioning should also stabilize energy prices because fuel costs are zero, reduce power d

That’s now how separation of powers works under the U.S. Constitution.

FBI officials have complied with demands to provide the Justice Department with details of thousands of employees who worked on investigations related to the January 6, 2021, US Capitol riot, according to people familiar with the situation.

Revealed: US climate denial group working with European far-right parties Representatives of Heartland Institute linking up with MEPs to campaign against environmental policies Helena Horton, Sam Bright and Clare Carlile Wed 22 Jan 2025 13.01 CET Last modified on Wed 22 Jan 2025 14.27 CET Climate science deniers from a US-based thinktank have been working with rightwing politicians in Europe to campaign against environmental policies, the Guardian can reveal. MEPs have been accused of “rolling out the red carpet for climate deniers” to give them a platform in the European parliament, amid warnings of a “revival of grotesque climate denialism”.
