For most of the modern era, capitalism justified itself through growth. Industrial societies converted vast amounts of fossil energy into production, wealth, and rising living standards. Roads, bridges, power grids, schools, and public institutions expanded alongside the economy. Inequality and exploitation remained deeply embedded in the system, but they were partly obscured by a broader story of material progress.
Food security (FS) remains a pressing issue at the global scale. Current literature about FS points to a plethora of causes of food insecurity, among which climate change and the loss of biodiversity are critical to all facets of food security. Building on this notion, we advocate for a comprehensive understanding of drivers of food security, thus contributing by examining climate change and biodiversity as drivers of food security. The interest in this subject stems not only from the scientific community, but also from practitioners and policymakers. However, holistic encapsulation of the relevant literature addressing this subject is currently lacking. This review systematically analyses and categorises the drivers of FS induced by climate change and biodiversity. Following the Systematic Literature Review approach, 342 peer-reviewed studies were selected and synthesised. Our findings identified 11 categories of climate change drivers and 9 categories of biodiversity drivers of FS. These drivers were found
Climate change is causing measurable harm globally1,2. Political and legal efforts seek to link these damages with specific emissions, including in discussions of loss and damage (L&D)3,4; however, no quantitative definition of L&D exists5,6, nor is there a framework to link past and future emissions from specific sources to monetized, location-specific damages. Here we develop such a framework, which is integrated with recent efforts to estimate the social cost of carbon7. Using empirical estimates of the non-linear relationship between temperature and aggregate economic output, we show that future damages from past emissions—one component of L&D—are at least an order of magnitude larger than historical damages from the same emissions. For instance, one tonne of CO2 emitted in 1990 caused US$180 in discounted global damages by 2020 ($40–530) and will cause an additional $1,840 through 2100 ($500–5,700). Thus, settling debts for past damages will not settle debts for past emissions. In other illustrative esti
Elk jaar belandt bijna 7 miljoen ton textiel op de Europese vuilnisbelt. Terwijl de modesector zich voorbereidt op een circulaire toekomst remt Europa juist af: regelgeving rond circulariteit en transparantie die begin 2026 zou ingaan, wordt nu uitgesteld. Intussen blijven fast fashion-bedrijven de markt overspoelen met wegwerpkledij en voor oneerlijke concurrentie zorgen. Ysabel Nauwelaerts (KU Leuven) en Ben Hagenaars (LUCA School of Arts) zien een enorm potentieel bij de overheidsaanbestedingen.
De meeste populaire chatbots helpen zonder problemen bij het plannen van gewelddadige aanvallen – van een schoolshooting tot een antisemitische bomaanslag of politieke moord. Dat blijkt uit een uitgebreid onderzoeksrapport van CCDH en CNN.
Er is veel ‘kritiek’ in de Westerse media op de opportuniteit van de aanval die de VS en Israël hebben ingezet tegen Iran op 28 februari 2025. Wat er niet staat zegt echter zoveel meer. Zo is het voornaamste feit tijdens die aanvallen nergens een hoofdartikel waard: bij een bombardement op een school in de stad Minab werden minstens 165 leerlingen vermoord.

Des chercheurs de l'Imperial College London et de la London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine publient mercredi une étude préalable dans laquelle ils avancent que plus de 15 000 morts en Europe durant l'été seraient dues au réchauffement climatique.
On 21 April 2019, I was on Waterloo Bridge in London with my younger siblings. Around us were planters full of flowers where there were once cars, and people singing. This was the spring iteration of Extinction Rebellion, when four bridges in London were held by protesters. My siblings, then 14, had been going out on school strike inspired by Greta Thunberg, and wanted to see her speak.
Meisjes en jonge vrouwen hebben het meest te lijden onder de klimaatcrisis die de Sahel momenteel treft, toont onderzoek door de ngo Plan International. De voedselonzekerheid neemt er toe, net als de schooluitval, en tienermeisjes zijn vaker slachtoffer van seksueel geweld.
Extreem weer heeft in 2024 meer dan 240 miljoen leerlingen en studenten minstens tijdelijk zonder onderwijs gezet. Hittegolven, cyclonen en overstromingen troffen kinderen op alle continenten.
