Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors
Study "establish that the influence of climate change on heatwaves has increased, and that all carbon majors, even the smaller ones, contributed substantially to the occurrence of heatwaves. Our results contribute to filling the evidentiary gap to establish accountability of historical climate extremes."

'Block Everything' protests sweep across France, scores arrested

"In Paris, students and school age youngsters swelled the protesters' ranks. Over 300 protesters were arrested across the country, though many rallies were peaceful."

"The movement reflects anger with what protesters say is a dysfunctional ruling elite bent on austerity - the discontent deepened after the last government proposed cuts of 44 billion euros ($52 billion) in government spending."

" "Young people are the future, the old generation left us with a shitty world, a shitty government. It is up to us to fight to change that and dance on the ashes of the old world," student Alice Morin, 21 said."

Lives disrupted and stunted by ongoing climate disasters

"Unicef-commissioned report shows being unable to finish high school – and the associated wage loss – is the most significant impact of increasingly frequent disasters on young people. Experts and advocates fear the lifelong consequences facing young people are being overlooked in disaster responses as what were previously known as “one-in-a-hundred years” disasters increase in frequency and severity."

"Unicef Australia is calling for the government to create a policy framework to support young people during and after natural disasters. “[We need] a better plan around the things that children need, around education and having enough supports to help them with their mental health if they’re traumatised by an event."

So many of the world’s problems are directly attributable to the baby boom generation exploiting resources, hoarding wealth and clinging onto power. They had it all, and boy did they screw things up for the rest of us. 🤦‍♂️ #IntergenerationalJustice

"A 40-year life extension to one of Australia’s biggest fossil fuel developments so that it could run until 2070.
We are gambling with a place of extraordinary cultural heritage for the sake of short-term interests.
Emissions hurt the environment. People know this." >>

No one committed to Paris goals can seriously argue Woodside’s LNG project should operate until 2070

Forty-year extension of North West Shelf gas project granted by environment minister Murray Watt will result in huge greenhouse gas emissions, putting the already degraded Indigenous rock art at risk

Learning interrupted

"Climate shocks are disrupting children’s education, putting their learning and their futures at risk."

"A new UNICEF analysis reveals that at least 242 million students in 85 countries or territories had their schooling disrupted by extreme climate events including heatwaves, tropical cyclones, storms, floods and droughts in 2024, exacerbating an existing learning crisis."

"Our leaders are collaborators with fossil fuel colonialists. This is the source of our communal dread. We act like colonial subjects because, in effect, that’s what we are. A child born now will experience 24 times the number of extreme climate events as a politician born in the 1960s. The IPCC’s latest report states emphatically that to spare the worst effects of climate breakdown there should be no new fossil fuel development."

The lassitude that distinguishes our moment is born of sorrow and buried rage. We act like colonial subjects because, in effect, that’s what we are
