When major new climate change scenarios are released, there’s always strong interest. These scenarios lay out what our future climate will look like, depending on how fast we act to cut emissions.

Volgens analist Andrew Korybko dient de oorlog tegen Iran Trumps strategie om China te verzwakken. Een pro-Amerikaans regime in Teheran zou de VS controle geven over Iraanse energiebronnen, om deze als geopolitiek drukmiddel tegen Beijing in te zetten.

Le ministère américain de la Justice a annoncé la publication de plus de 3 millions de pages supplémentaires dans le cadre de l’«Epstein Files Transparency Act».

US president’s son-in-law was instrumental in getting deal – which could bring him huge windfall if plan to redevelop Gaza ever comes to fruition […] For a man with no formal role in the White House, Jared Kushner last week literally took centre-stage as Donald Trump’s emissary to the Middle East. As the administration took a victory lap for hammering out a Gaza ceasefire last week, Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, stood in Tel Aviv’s ‘hostages square’, addressing a feverish crowd that had booed the mention of Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and later broke into chants of: “Thank You Trump!”

C’est sans doute l’une des études les plus importantes de l’année. Après « A good life for all within planetary boundaries » (2018), la première tentative de quantification du donut de Kate Raworth, et sa mise à jour en 2022 dans « The social shortfall and ecological overshoot of nations », deux chercheurs viennent de publier la suite. Intitulée « Doughnut of social and planetary boundaries monitors a world out of balance » (2025), l’étude est sortie le mercredi 2 octobre dans la prestigieux revue Nature.

The doughnut-shaped framework of social and planetary boundaries (the ‘Doughnut’) provides a concise visual assessment of progress towards the goal of meeting the needs of all people within the means of the living planet1,2,3. Here we present a renewed Doughnut framework with a revised set of 35 indicators that monitor trends in social deprivation and ecological overshoot over the 2000–2022 period. Although global gross domestic product (GDP) has more than doubled, our median results show a modest achievement in reducing human deprivation that would have to accelerate fivefold to meet the needs of all people by 2030.

US President Donald Trump's administration is revising past editions of the nation's premier climate report—its latest move to undermine the scientific consensus on human-caused global warming.

Bad climate news is everywhere. Africa is being hit particularly hard by climate change and extreme weather, impacting lives and livelihoods. We are living in a world that is warming at the fastest rate since records began. Yet, governments have been slow to act.

Heat waves are getting more dangerous with climate change — and we may still be underestimating them

The human fingerprint on global warming was likely evident in Earth’s atmosphere far earlier than previously thought—even before the invention of modern cars, a new study says. Using a combination of scientific theory, modern observations and multiple, sophisticated computer models, researchers found a clear signal of human-caused climate change was likely discernible with high confidence as early as 1885, just before the advent of gas-powered cars but after the dawn of the industrial revolution.
