Earth being ‘pushed beyond its limits’ as energy imbalance reaches record high
"Our home planet is struggling with a record energy imbalance, which is warming oceans to unprecedented levels, making weather more extreme and threatening health and food supplies." How we react matters.

Climate crisis on track to destroy capitalism, warns top insurer
[Damian Carrington in The Guardian] Quite a headline! "The world is fast approaching temperature levels where insurers will no longer be able to offer cover for many climate risks, said Günther Thallinger, on the board of Allianz SE, one of the world’s biggest insurance companies. He said that without insurance, which is already being pulled in some places, many other financial services become unviable, from mortgages to investments." Entire regions are becoming uninsurable - for example, the

Far-Right Extremists Embrace Environmentalism to Justify Violent Anti-Immigrant Beliefs
[Abrahm Lustgarten at ProPublica] "For a generation, conservatives — not just the far right, which Crusius appeared to identify with — had propelled the notion that climate change was a hoax fabricated so the government could impose new restrictions on the economy and society. Yet Crusius hadn’t denied climate change at all. Instead, he seemed to claim its impacts were themselves arguments justifying his violence." Abrahm Lustgarten has written a sobering piece about the far right's embrace of

Earth’s ‘vital signs’ show humanity’s future in balance, say climate experts
[Damian Carrington at The Guardian] Meanwhile, while we're all paying attention elsewhere: "More and more scientists are now looking into the possibility of societal collapse, said the report, which assessed 35 vital signs in 2023 and found that 25 were worse than ever recorded, including carbon dioxide levels and human population. This indicates a “critical and unpredictable new phase of the climate crisis”, they said." And: "“Climate change has already displaced millions of people, with th

How the UK became the first G7 country to phase out coal power
[Molly Lempriere and Simon Evans in CarbonBrief] "Remarkably, the UK’s coal power phaseout – as well as the closure of some of the country’s few remaining blast furnaces at Port Talbot in Wales and Scunthorpe in Lincolnshire – will help push overall coal demand in 2024 to its lowest level since the 1600s." The UK aims to fully decarbonize its power supplies by 2030. That involves phasing out gas power in under six years: a big milestone and an ambitious goal, and one it hopes will be a case st

Lifehouse
A manifesto and guide for building mutual aid groups and reclaiming power in a time of perpetual crisis We are living through a Long Emergency: a near-continuous train of pandemics, heatwaves, droughts, resource wars and other climate-driven disasters. In Lifehouse, Adam Greenfield asks what might happen if the tactics and networks of care that spring up in response to these times might be brought together in a single, coherent way of life? Using examples from the Black Panthers’ “survival programs,” the astonishingly effective Occupy Sandy disaster-relief effort and the neighborhood-based mutual aid groups that sustained many during COVID lockdowns to the large-scale, self-organised polities of municipalist Spain and Kurdish Rojava, Greenfield argues for rethinking local power as a bulwark against despair — a way to discover and develop the individual and collective capacities that have gone underutilized during all the long years of late capitalism, and a means for thriving in the face of impending catastrophe.

‘It’s about survival’: Athens mayor focuses on getting capital through extreme heat
[Helene Smith at The Guardian] "Barely six months into the job, the mayor of Athens’s top priority is simple: ensuring that the people of Greece’s capital – mainland Europe’s hottest metropolis – survive the summer. After a June that was the hottest on record, the city has already witnessed record-breaking temperatures and wildfires." We're deeply into the climate crisis at this point; a major city having to make major changes in order to "survive the summer" is just another example. When you
