On July 29, 2025, the Department of Energy (DOE) published a report entitled A Critical Review of Impacts of Greenhouse Gas Emissions on the U.S. Climate, evaluating existing peer-reviewed literature and government data on climate impacts of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions and providing a critical assessment of the conventional narrative on climate change.

Carbon markets play an important role in firms’ and governments’ climate strategies. Carbon crediting mechanisms allow project developers to earn carbon credits through mitigation projects. Several studies have raised concerns about environmental integrity, though a systematic evaluation is missing. We synthesized studies relying on experimental or rigorous observational methods, covering 14 studies on 2346 carbon mitigation projects and 51 studies investigating similar field interventions implemented without issuing carbon credits. The analysis covers one-fifth of the credit volume issued to date, almost 1 billion tons of CO2e. We estimate that less than 16% of the carbon credits issued to the investigated projects constitute real emission reductions, with 11% for cookstoves, 16% for SF6 destruction, 25% for avoided deforestation, 68% for HFC-23 abatement, and no statistically significant emission reductions from wind power and improved forest management projects. Carbon crediting mechanisms need to be reformed fundamentally to meaningfully contribute to climate change mitigation. Carbon markets are key in climate strategies, but only 16% of carbon credits represent real emission reductions, based on a study of 2,346 projects. Reforms are needed to improve the effectiveness of carbon crediting mechanisms in addressing climate change.
All eyes are on Baku for what has been labelled the COP of Peace, we explore what we can expect on militarism, conflict and climate at COP29.
", a recent report from Oil Change International suggests that $5tn could be mobilised by wealthy countries through a tax on the arms trade, and through the redistribution of 20% of public military spending, among other measures. This isn’t the first time that the arms trade has been suggested as a route to finance the NCQG. During June 2024 talks on the goal in Bonn, Saudi Arabia, on behalf of the Arab Group, surprised many by proposing a 5% sales tax on developed countries’ arms companies, as well as taxes on fashion and tech."

The GOP threatens to weaponize a potential second Trump term against any and all domestic climate action. But what happens in the United States doesn’t stay in the United States.

Fred är en grundförutsättning för utveckling av hållbara samhällen. I en tid av både klimatförändring och upprustning krävs en samlad plan för hur Sverige och världen kan ställa om till fredliga och rättvisa lösningar. Jordens Vänners fredsutskott uppmanar freds-miljö- och rättviserörelsen att samlas i ett upprop för fred och rättvisa.
Not everyone in the field of science has abandoned the truth that carbon dioxide (CO2) and other “greenhouse gases” are good for people and planet as opposed to bad. More than 1,600 scientists – 1,609 as of this writing, to be precise – belonging to the Global Climate Intelligence Group (CLINTEL) signed the World Climate […]
And we're finally hitting the sweet spot of the crucial one Substack 11.6.24
"So even amidst all the desperate news from climate science, I have some legitimately good numbers to update you on this morning. They come from the veteran energy analyst Kingsmill Bond and colleagues at the Rocky Mountain Institute, and they demonstrate that the world has moved on to the steep part of the S curve, which will sweep us from minimal reliance on renewable energy to—we must hope and pray— minimal dependence on fossil fuel. The angle of that curve may prove to be the most significant geometry of our time on earth, competing only with the slope of the Keeling Curve which documents the growing accumulation of co2 in the atmosphere above Mauna Loa"
