Defense Department will stop providing crucial satellite weather data
"The U.S. Department of Defense will no longer provide satellite weather data, leaving hurricane forecasters without crucial information about storms as peak hurricane season looms in the Atlantic... The Defense Department satellites were also the main source of real-time information about changes to sea ice."

Political cowardice hindering Europe’s climate efforts, says EU’s green chief (The Guardian)

Effects of crisis are becoming increasingly obvious but not translating into proper action.

Political cowardice is hindering European efforts to face up to the effects of the climate crisis, even as the continent is pummelled by a record-breaking heatwave.

Metrics of Denial: A Critical Reading of Indian Indices in the Age of Climate Capitalism

#climate_change, #Environmental_Extortionist_BJP, , #Stop_Adani, #Environmental_Extortionist_Adani, #Environmental_Extortionist_Ajay_Piramal, #Environmental_Performance_Index_(EPI), #Nature_Conservation_Index_(NCI), #Climate_Change_Performance_Index_(CCPI), #ESG_Funds, #Say_No_To_Green_Capitalism, #Chaosophy, #AntiGreen_Development, #Sustainable_Retreat_from_Development

This study interrogates India’s position across major global indices—Environmental Performance Index (EPI), Nature Conservation Index (NCI), Climate Change Performance Index (CCPI), ESG fund performance, and climate displacement data—revealing deep contradictions between policy rhetoric and ecological realities. With India ranking near the bottom in EPI and NCI, and topping charts in climate displacement, the report juxtaposes these failures against the optimistic ranking in CCPI and the proliferation of ESG funds. Through a chaosophic lens, the study critiques the reductionism of market-led green capitalism and underscores the need to rethink ecological metrics beyond their statistical form. A comparative global–Indian framework highlights shared vulnerabilities and region-specific crises, especially around resource depletion and climate-induced migration, while resisting technocratic fixes and econometric illusions.

The global climate crisis has just entered uncharted territory, as Failaka Island in Kuwait has recorded a staggering 52.6°C, the earliest known maximum temperature in the region ever. Nearby Bubyan Island also scorched at 51.3°C, cementing this event as one of the most extraordinary heat episodes ever documented

Top 6 Sustainability Factors Driving Climate Change

The BBC is utterly beholden to the right. Why else would it fear an Evan Davis podcast about heat pumps? (The Guardian)

The broadcaster behaves like Starmer’s government: suppress the left, cave to your critics, and undermine your own survival.

Why? The answer is simple: economic power.

A silent majority of the world’s people wants stronger climate action. It’s time to wake up. (The Guardian)

About 89% of the public want their governments to do more to tackle the climate crisis – but don’t know they’re the majority.

We believe the current mismatch between public will and government action amounts to a deficit in democracy.
