How cyclones and monsoon rains converged to devastate parts of Asia – visual guide Extreme weather kills more than 1,100 people across south and south-east Asia as cyclones turbocharge rain systems

We cannot deal with Ecologic Breakdown if Fossil Fuel companies continue to have government influence and call the shots at COP.

World leaders cannot continue to prioritize the desires of the rich over the survival of the poor.

What can we do in front of this? Organize, mobilize: in Panama the Scientist Rebellion group facilitated the drafting of a manifesto promoting a democratic approach to environmental, social and economic policies. You can read the manifesto here

Following a strategy that we have seen implemented after the Paris agreement as well, countries spent the following 3 conferences arguing on details and delaying implementation. COP6 discussion was suspended over the US refusal to accept any measure that would impact their emissions.

The Kyoto protocol is often depicted in political speeches as a blueprint of concrete climate action. While it did contain some tangible measures -- although too small to be impactful -- we often forget that the real work starts after such agreements, and not before.

I really enjoyed talking with Rachel Donald on my work documenting the origins and history of the @scientistrebellion.bsky.social movement and where it and the many other collective liberation movements that exist could go moving forwards, under increased reppression conditions we find ourselves in.

On Monday, scientists from @scientifiquesenrebellion.fr were on trial in Munich for a peaceful protest in 2022. Lauranne was acquitted, while Manua, Marceau, Hugo, Jerome & Sylvain were sentenced to hefty fines.
The people and companies responsible for the ongoing ecocide continue to escape justice.

A the same time, they set also the stage for the principles of "flexibility" and "emission trading" that would allow rich Minority World countries to pay their way out of the already insufficient goals.

We start a series of posts summarizing the key elements of each COP, the (few) achievements and how the promises were constantly betrayed. The first 3 conferences set the stage for the adoption of the Kyoto protocol, drafted during COP3. (4/5)

Conferences of Parties have been presented as one of the few international tables where the Majority World gets to sit at the table, but the images of the indigenous peoples protest being violently repressed shows what has always been clear: the voice of the people is pushed out. (2/5)

✊ "In my book I show how many scientists have come to realize that making polite requests to those in power is no longer a viable option (if it ever was). Scientists-turned-activists are instead rising in resistance, contributing to anti-capitalist and anti-colonial movements around the world."
