Open letter by Scientists: Climate Neutrality is Europe's Greatest Economic Opportunity
The European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change advised that a 90%–95% net domestic reduction of greenhouse gases (GHG) until 2040 (compared to the 1990 baseline) is necessary in order to achieve climate neutrality by 2050.Zenodo
🧊🦠 Researchers at #Caltech and University of #Colorado #Boulder reactivated #microbes frozen in Alaskan #permafrost for up to 40,000 years and found they rapidly resume producing #carbon dioxide when warmed.
The study suggests that as #Arctic summers lengthen, these ancient organisms could trigger dangerous #climate feedback loops since permafrost stores twice as much carbon as #Earth's #atmosphere.

The #ClimateCrisis is not just about #carbon molecules in the air. It is about who puts them there and who pays the price. French economist #ThomasPiketty warns that if class inequality is ignored, climate policy will fail. The wealthiest emitters are flying in #PrivateJets, buying oversized cars, and taking short distance flights while ordinary households struggle with rising costs for energy, food, and housing.

Troubled Waters: How Microplastics Are Impacting Our Oceans and Our Health - resilience
Microplastic pollution is poisoning nearly everything on the planet—from the deepest parts of the ocean to inside the cells of living beings.Daniel Lerch (Resilience.org)
Longer working hours have been linked to higher emissions, yet the climate movement seems reluctant to join the campaign for a four-day week—a potential strategic error given the social, health and climate benefits of working less.

Working less is the most underrated climate solution
Fewer work hours can lower emissions. So why isn’t the climate movement fighting for our collective right to relax?Jack McGovan (Sower)
