Ce 2 avril, à l’occasion de la journée internationale du fact checking (la vérification des faits), la RTBF lance une campagne de lutte contre la désinformation. Face à l’émergence de la désinformation, la RTBF a lancé depuis 2021 une rubrique dédiée au fact-checking, la vérification des faits : Faky. Pour séparer le vrai du faux, notre équipe enquête et utilise une série de techniques qui permettent de vérifier des déclarations officielles et analyse également la véracité d’informations, parfois trompeuses ou fabriquées, qui circulent sur les réseaux. Vous reconnaissez les fact-checkings de la RTBF en retrouvant le logo Faky, présent en haut à droite des illustrations des articles.
Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan and an international banking group have quietly concluded that climate change will likely exceed the Paris Agreement’s 2 degree goal.Top Wall Street institutions are preparing for a severe future of global warming that blows past the temperature limits agreed to by more than 190 nations a decade ago, industry documents show.
Greenpeace lost – not because it did something wrong but because it was denied a fair trial The stunning $667m verdict against Greenpeace last week is a direct attack on the climate movement, Indigenous peoples and the first amendment. The North Dakota case is so deeply flawed – at its core, the trial was really about crushing dissent – that I believe there is a good chance it will be reversed on appeal and ultimately backfire against the Energy Transfer pipeline company.
2024 marks the first time since record keeping began that all of the 10 hottest years have fallen within the most recent decade.
His Royal Highness King Godwin Bebe Okpabi has carried bottles of water drawn from the wells of his homeland in the Niger delta to the high court in London.

De Net Zero Banking Alliance, een VN-coalitie van klimaatbewuste banken, is aan het wankelen. Nu zes grote Amerikaanse banken hun lidmaatschap hebben opgezegd, overweegt het verbond belangrijke deelnemers-eisen te verslappen. Wat is de NZBA dan eigenlijk nog waard?
Adam Greenfield author of Lifehouse, Taking Care of Ourselves in a World on Fire. A Lifehouse is an institution at the heart of each neighborhood that responds to the terrifying reality of climate collapse in our own communities.In this book Adam Greenfield, recovers lessons from the Black Panther survival programs, the astonishingly effective Occupy Sandy disaster-relief effort and the solidarity networks of crisis-era Greece, as well as municipalist Spain and autonomous Rojava, to show how practices of mutual care and local power can help shelter us from a future that often feels like it has no place for us...

In thinking about the war being waged against life on Earth by Donald Trump, Elon Musk and their minions, I keep bumping into a horrible suspicion. Could it be that this is not just about delivering the world to oligarchs and corporations – not just about wringing as much profit from living systems as they can?

Larry Page. The name instantly evokes Google. He co-founded the search engine that reshaped how we explore the web. Now, whispers suggest he’s pivoting to AI manufacturing.Two publications lit the match: Tech in Asia and The Hindu. Both allege Page quietly built a team of robotics and data-savvy wizards. The result? A stealthy startup aimed at merging artificial intelligence with factory floors. The company’s identity remains hidden. Yet the words “AI manufacturing” capture attention. Manufacturing is massive, vital, and often riddled with inefficiencies. If Page wants to optimize it, the outcome could be game-changing.
