"Switzerland has lost almost one-fifth of its ice in just five years, research has found, in a dramatic reshaping of the Alpine country whose big white glaciers have been reduced to moonlike rock deserts, scientists say." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/oct/01/switzerland-glacier-loss-fossil-fuel-pollution-europe #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #FossilFuels #Environment #News #Activism #HumanRights #AnimalRights #PlanetaryRights

‘The toll is huge’: El Niño-driven wildfires overwhelm Indonesia’s orangutan population "The mother’s hands were peeling from walking on the torched ground. Her eight-month-old baby, which clung to her side, was dehydrated and thin. The pair, named Mama Abu and Abu (“ash” in Indonesian), were found in an oil palm subsidiary estate, rescuers say. The orangutan pair were saved last month from wildfires that are devouring Indonesia’s forests and peatland, unleashing thick smog, and destroying the habitat of some of the planet’s most vulnerable species." Meanwhile unAustralian Labor Anthony Albanese: "Here you go mate, a nice shiny new Coal Mine License, the BIGGEST one in NSW yet, cheers for the $10k *donations* & Chicken Dinner last night.. Anything else you need, anything at all, you let us know.." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/oct/01/el-nino-orangutans-indonesia-wildlife-destruction-aoe #ExtinctionLevelEvents #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #FossilFuels #Activism #Environment #HumanRights #News #AnimalRights #PlanetaryRights #LaborFail #Labor #AnthonyAlbanese #Complicity #Corruption

From floods across South and South-East Asia to toxic fire haze and typhoons battering East Asia, climate disasters are hitting millions. Fossil fuels are supercharging the chaos: homes destroyed, harvests lost, communities cut off and blackouts leaving families without power. Meanwhile, polluters cash in. Make polluters PAY. Time to END the age of fossil fuels. #makepolluterspay #asia #eastasia #thailand #japan #india #philippines #fossilfuels #climatechange #climatecrisis #floods #smoke

Fossil fuel subsidies are the ‘worst energy policy in the world,’ researchers say

In an editorial in Science, U.S.-based energy policy experts Paasha Mahdavi and Michael Ross argue that governments creating consumer fossil fuel subsidies in response to rising energy prices is the “worst energy policy in the world.” Mahdavi, an associate professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, in the U.S., and Ross, a professor at […]

Oil spills from war are spreading towards coral reefs and mangroves in the Strait of Hormuz. Fossil fuel dependence puts people, nature and economies in harm’s way. To prevent future harm, we must end that dependence and build a future powered by clean, decentralised renewables. https://www.dw.com/en/iran-war-oil-slicks-environmental-catastrophe-tankers-hit-by-missiles-protected-ecosystems/a-79327092 #iran #hormuz #war #peace #oilspills #fossilfuels #renewables #renewableenergy

@nixCraft@mastodon.social #TechBros are outperforming #FossilFuels in cornering energy markets, just from the #DataCenters front alone. When SHTF, control as much vital root infrastructure, as possible. #Capitalism #greed at its *finest*.

No one should have to endure bombing, displacement, blackouts or soaring bills before governments recognise that modern, decentralised renewable energy systems offer greater security and stability. https://apnews.com/article/iran-war-climate-change-oil-gas-prices-48bb12e1cd5713764bca103e9104309d #Iran #war #peace #renewables #renewableenergy #fossilflation #fossilfuels #climate #energy

"Saudis tell European refiners they’ll get no crude next month" The world has to transition to #GreenEnergy and it is transitioning to Green #Energy (too slowly) But Not like this Sudden major supply disruptions are not easily handled This is an "oh shit" moment And it's not just about #Europe And it's not a one-off Alarmism, like complacency, is a mental trap I don't want to do it However... 😬 https://financialpost.com/commodities/energy/oil-gas/saudis-european-refiners-no-crude-next-month #SaudiArabia #Oil #FossilFuels

#solarpunksunday #solarpunk #plastic #plasticpollution #fossilfuels Teen in Ireland invents “Eco Purge, a plant-based, biodegradable plastic. Once disposed of, the plastic takes up to two weeks to degrade and release enzymes into the environment that break down existing microplastics in the surrounding soil and water.” https://www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/this-high-schooler-invented-a-plant-based-plastic-that-removes-microplastics-from-the-environment-as-it-biodegrades-180989254/
