The #climate catastrophe can't be tackled without addressing gross #inequality - 'The richest 1% of humanity is responsible for more #carbon emissions than the poorest 66%' - their footprint enough to cause more than 1 million excess death due to heat theguardian.com/environment/20…

I've been researching the idea of Unconditional Basic Income since 2013. Here's a list of findings I've compiled from various UBI experiments, unconditional cash transfer studies, and cash dividend research.

The data speaks for itself.

The best cartoon ever. History matters and exploitation continues in multiple ways through the extreme inequalities we see every day. Even in high-level science meetings.

PS: It is obviously not a problem of 'lack of (western) democracy', or accountability. For God's sake.

'Our environment is burning. It's melting. It's flooding. It's depleting. It's drying. It's dying. Addressing climate change is a human rights issue. There is still time to act. But that time is now.'

We quantify the benefits of leadership in climate policy, showing that leading countries can leverage substantial GHG emission reductions abroad. A thread 👇

'Permettez-moi de dire, comme je l'ai toujours dit, et comme je continuerai à le dire, que les émeutes sont socialement destructrices et qu'elles vont à l'encontre du but recherché. Mais en dernière analyse, une émeute est le langage de ceux qui ne sont pas entendus. Et qu'est-ce

Some welcome clarity from the FT's energy editor:

Are you at the #LCLsummit ? Are you exploring the potential of market-based mechanisms to address the #biodiversity funding gap? Read our perspective on #finance for #naturebasedsolutions here doi.org/10.1371/journa…

Our emissions, material footprint, GDP and population are connected and cannot be treated as anomalous or singular.

Yet another reason why Net Zero will not solve our problems.

#Deforestation continues apace despite #cop26 pledges. As Ani Dasgupta highlights at the Land & Carbon Lab summit, countries need to go through an economic transformation urgently. theguardian.com/environment/20…
