The #Mediterranean: Not just the most overfished #sea in the world, but also one of the most threatened.🚨
From #plastic #pollution in its deepest trenches, illegal #fishing practices being the norm, to 730 tonnes of plastic entering its water daily, and soaring levels of toxic #microplastics.
The Mediterranean is in crisis, and it needs its #protection urgently.

Ukraine war pumps 180M tons of CO2 into atmosphere, causing $33B in damage - Ukrainian climatologist
The war in Ukraine is speeding up climate change, and that's a global problem. Greenhouse gas emissions from military operations have consequences far beyond Ukraine, and they're already too big to ignore.Vasylyna Kopytko (RBC-Ukraine)
"it's pollution in our lungs & exploitation of people & burning of the planet & degradation of civil society"
Economists refer to these as "externalities"... often not hidden (air pollution in LA is pretty obvious) as much as unaccounted for...
"Externalities often occur when the production or consumption of a product or service's private price equilibrium cannot reflect the true costs or benefits of that product or service for society as a whole.... since resources can be better allocated, externalities are an example of market failure."
👉 #MarketFailure 👈 is the key concept. So called #FreeMarkets are often incomplete, because not all of the #StakeHolders are at the bargaining table.

Even the oft quoted-out-of-context "libertarian" economist #FriedrichHayek allowed that there were some areas of economic activity that could not be addressed by free or open markets... #publichealth and #pollution to name just two.

L’agriculture en 2050 : «Sans changement radical, ce sera le désert»
S’adapter dans une France à +4°C, c’est ce que prévoit le gouvernement. Dans les champs, cela signifie des cultures brûlées et la mort de millions d’animaux d’élevage. Faire face est possible, mais jusqu’à une certaine hausse de température

The U.S. has used tariffs to protect industry since 1789. That approach decimated American shipbuilding and could do the same to clean tech

we are living through an #ExtinctionCrisis unlike anything in human history—over a million #species are at risk of disappearing in the coming decades. #ecosystems that have taken millions of years to evolve are unravelling before our eyes, driven by #HabitatDestruction, #climate chaos, #pollution, and endless #extraction. every species lost is a thread pulled from the web of life, and sooner or later, that web collapses.

Climat : les glaciers français ont perdu 40% de leur masse en 20 ans
Europe
Les glaciers de notre planète subissent fortement les conséquences du réchauffement climatique. En Europe, les Pyrénées et les Alpes sont les régions du monde où les glaciers fondent le plus vite. Ils ont perdu près de 40% de leur masse entre 2000 et 2023

Almost 4 #StarLink satellites fall back to Earth every day and they rain out aluminum oxide into the stratosphere which destroys the ozone layer. These satellites are more and more problematic with every article I read. Edit: corrected microsatellites to satellites per @sundogplanets 's correction that these are larger satellites than microsatellites.

Scientist/blogger Erik Hoel is deeply worried about the "enshittification" of the internet via generated #AI #content. He argues that at the end of the day, it's not just about bad actors and spammers, but about massive mainstream #pollution, a "tragedy of the #commons" that even small children will be exposed to every day. The only answer to the problem, according to Roel: Some sort of "Clean Internet Act".
