⚡️🚘BREAKING: For the first time ever, more than half of cars sold in China last month were electric
New-energy vehicles, including EVs and PHEVs, reached a record-high 51.1% of retail sales in July, according to data from the China Passenger Car Association
EVs are already noticably trimming China's oil demand: Just the increase in EVs on the road since last year shaved ~4% off transport fuel demand:

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.

Incredible historical document here: Blinken says Israel’s PR is failing because social media allows people a direct look at what’s happening, shorn of the ability to mediate it, and it lands with emotional resonance. Romney then says yes, that’s why we moved to ban TikTok

For years now, @Janefonda & others have called upon @Chase to stop investing in climate genocide.
But $JPM Chase has continued, and as of 2022, has funneled $434.15 billion USD into fossil fuels since the 2015 Paris Accords.
Where are the Nuremberg trials for climate murderers?
Jane Fonda has a message for the CEO of @Chase.
Can you help get it to him? #StopTheMoneyPipeline #YEARSproject

Twenty years ago, the idea that the world was becoming uninsurable was one of our big themes on Worldchanging — and one of the major reasons I began talking about a "brittleness bubble."
Today, we find ourselves in "the uninsurable world."

“There’s no Israeli-Palestinian conflict. There’s only a brutal Israeli occupation.”
-The editor in chief of Israel’s largest English language newspaper.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is Gideon Levi who is an award winning journalist and prominent columnist for the newspaper Haaretz
Levi is not however the editor-in-chief of Haaretz, that is Aluf Benn.
This is a correction of fact and has no bearing on the opinions being expressed by Mr. Levi.

Rasister slutar inte vara rasister bara för att de klär sig i kostym och byter logga. Politiken är ett maratonlopp, tänk långsiktigt för Sveriges skull. Sverigedemokraterna är fortfarande rasistiska nötter med nazistiska rötter.

Det ska vara lätt att göra rätt och löna sig att välja miljövänligt, brukar det sägas. I praktiken är det ofta tvärt om. Flyget subventioneras kraftigt. Därför är tåget minst dubbelt så dyrt som flyget, i vissa fall 30 gånger dyrare

China is incomparable on climate action:
Operates half of world's offshore wind; installs more renewables than US, EU and India put together; builds more panels, has more electric rail, more EVs, plants more trees than the rest of the world combined
It's just getting started 👇
The progress China has made in renewable energy just THIS YEAR makes the entire rest of the world look like it's standing still.
I wrote in December that to call China the "world leader in renewable energy" was a colossal understatement.
That’s even more true today.

Strax röstar vi om EU:s naturrestaureringslag.
Jag tänkte gå igenom lite olika ändringsförslag som högerpartierna har lagt. Det är ofta häpnadsväckande vilka förslag som läggs fram av Moderaterna och Kristdemokraterna.
Här kommer en liten genomgång👇

Simply astonishing—China is on track to install more solar power capacity *this year* than the entire existing US capacity.
Big questions remain about whether power storage can keep pace and when coal capacity—itself expanding quickly—will be shut down.

This summer may push India closer to the limits of human survival. Rising temperatures are forecast in the coming weeks after India experienced its hottest February on record. The region is at serious risk of wet-bulb if global temperatures continue to rise.
