L'ex-procureur spécial Jack Smith réaffirme que Donald Trump a tenté "d'inverser les résultats" de l'élection présidentielle de 2020 et d'empêcher le transfert légal du pouvoir à Joe Biden.

La reprise en main du président américain dans la capitale passe également par la mise sous tutelle du récit historique national, à travers la prise de contrôle de deux institutions culturelles, le Smithsonian et le Kennedy Center.

Les musées et le zoo Smithsonian à Washington sont parmi les principales attractions touristiques de la capitale américaine, en raison notamment de leur caractère gratuit. Parmi les plus prisés, figurent notamment le musée d'histoire naturelle, la galerie nationale d'art, ou encore le musée national de l'histoire et de la culture afro-américaine, inauguré en 2016 par Barack Obama.

The law will come into force in national parks within two years and in all of the country’s marine protected areas by 2030

En cultivant des algues et fruits de mer, Bren Smith redonne vie à l'océan. Et avec GreenWave, organisation à but non lucratif, il essaime cette agriculture océanique régénératrice. Dans son livre, Le Fermier des océans*, ce Terre-Neuvien canadien raconte de façon sa rédemption écologique. Bren Smith est en effet passé du statut de pêcheur destructeur des écosystèmes à la fin des années 80 à celui d'agriculteur océanique régénérateur.

Artificiële intelligentie (AI) ontwikkelt zich in een razend tempo, waardoor ook druk op de grote techbedrijven groeit om de milieu- en klimaatimpact ervan aan te pakken. Want die is groot: AI vereist enorme hoeveelheden energie en water.

Previously, anthropogenic ecological overshoot has been identified as a fundamental cause of the myriad symptoms we see around the globe today from biodiversity loss and ocean acidification to the disturbing rise in novel entities and climate change. In the present paper, we have examined this more deeply, and explore the behavioural drivers of overshoot, providing evidence that overshoot is itself a symptom of a deeper, more subversive modern crisis of human behaviour. We work to name and frame this crisis as ‘the Human Behavioural Crisis’ and propose the crisis be recognised globally as a critical intervention point for tackling ecological overshoot. We demonstrate how current interventions are largely physical, resource intensive, slow-moving and focused on addressing the symptoms of ecological overshoot (such as climate change) rather than the distal cause (maladaptive behaviours). We argue that even in the best-case scenarios, symptom-level interventions are unlikely to avoid catastrophe or achieve more

Lors d’une représentation à Bogota, l’artiste américaine a encouragé la jeunesse à mener le combat contre le réchauffement climatique.

La violence n’est pas que du côté des opposants aux méga-bassines. Protégés par la FNSEA et les instances gouvernementales, des agriculteurs défendent leur modèle intensif jusqu’à l’illégalité.

It’s no longer possible for any reasonable person to deny the existence of human-generated climate change. And as Pakistan suffers under record flooding, Greenland’s ice melts in September, and countries around the world are hit by record-breaking heat wave after heat wave, the effects are starting to become painfully clear. It’s too late to prevent major climate change, but if we make a mighty effort we will be able to limit the damages.

The goal of our project is to compile in a systematic manner the evidence in support of transmittable diseases being aggravated by climate hazards. To ensure a systematic review, we scrutinized the first 200 references in Google Scholar that resulted from using as keywords each possible combination of ten climate hazards (i.e., warming, heatwaves, precipitation, floods, drought, fires, sea level, storms, natural cover change, ocean climate change) and “human diseases”. We selected papers that reported cases examples of diseases regardless of whether impacts were positive or negative. Selected papers were read and from them extracted any mention to cases examples ofdiseasesaggravated by climate hazards.

Joe Biden is under pressure to declare a national climate emergency as temperatures soar across the US and Europe. Facing political gridlock in Washington, the president could make such an announcement – which would unlock federal resources to address the crisis – as soon as this week, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday.

Extreme event attribution aims to elucidate the link between global climate change, extreme weather events, and the harms experienced on the ground by people, property, and nature. It therefore allows the disentangling of different drivers of extreme weather from human-induced climate change and hence provides valuable information to adapt to climate change and to assess loss and damage. However, providing such assessments systematically is currently out of reach. This is due to limitations in attribution science, including the capacity for studying different types of events, as well as the geographical heterogeneity of both climate and impact data availability. Here, we review current knowledge of the influences of climate change on five different extreme weather hazards (extreme temperatures, heavy rainfall, drought, wildfire, tropical cyclones), the impacts of recent extreme weather events of each type, and thus the degree to which various impacts are attributable to climate change.

Fearful that the Able Archer 83 exercise was a cover for a NATO nuclear strike, the U.S.S.R. readied its own weapons for launch

Our study assessed whether the opportunity to see many vertebrate animal species mattered to tourists visiting Costa Rica, and if so, how important it was compared with other features like hotels and beaches. in Costa Rica, our research shows that biodiversity needs to be paired with infrastructure like hotels and roads that enable access to nature.

De nombreux rapports basés sur des recherches scientifiques évoquent les effets à long terme des changements climatiques, tels que l’augmentation des niveaux de gaz à effet de serre, des températures et des mers, d’ici 2100. Alors que s\'ouvre la COP26 à Glasgow, L’Accord de Paris, adopté en 2015 à la COP 21, exige que nous limitions le réchauffement à moins de 2 degrés Celsius d’ici la fin du siècle par rapport au niveau préindustriel.

Global food prices shot up nearly 33% in September 2021 compared with the same period the year before. That’s according to the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO)‘s monthly Food Price Index, which also found that global prices have risen by more than 3% since July, reaching levels not seen since 2011.

in a new study, we discovered that secondary forests across the Amazon are absorbing just 9.7% of the emissions created by the destruction of old-growth forests in the region. That’s despite these regrowing habitats occupying 28.8% of all deforested land.

A landmark report by the world’s most senior climate and biodiversity scientists argues that the world will have to tackle the climate crisis and the species extinction crisis simultaneously, or not at all.

Directrice du développement durable au CNES et membre de l'Université de la Pluralité, à qui l’on doit NARRATOPIAS, projet collaboratif et ouvert à tous ceux qui pensent le futur, Laurence Monnoyer-Smith nous rappelle dans cette tribune l’urgence à inventer de nouveaux de récits pour tracer des voies possibles vers les changements de paradigmes auxquels nous devons faire face.
