The dangers of a collapse of the main Atlantic Ocean circulation, known as Amoc, have been “greatly underestimated” and would have devastating impacts, according to an open letter by 44 experts. One of the signatories, ⁦@rahmstorf⁩ tells me why https://t.co/3b2YRJqNs9

O VAR é inequívoco: o agro responde por 75% das emissões brutas do país.

Em seu texto de estreia da coluna "Pode isso, Claudio?", o jornalista Claudio Angelo mostra como queimadas e grilagem fazem parte, sim, das emissões do setor agropecuário.

Fossil fuel production will always be wasteful, inefficient, destructive: a distraction from life-saving alternatives.

The science is clear, oil, gas and coal are the primary cause of floods, fires, lethal humidity, and air pollution that threatens everything we love.

[Tzeporah Berman @Tzeporah]

Let’s get something straight about fossil fuel phase-out: renewables needn’t replace all the coal, oil and gas we use today bc most of it is just used to produce and move those fossil fuels around!

We only need to replace the useful energy: 37% of what we currently produce 🫨🧵

As florestas cobrem 30% da superfície continental da Terra. Mas, com o crescimento da população mundial, o espaço que elas ocupam no planeta está cada vez menor. Assista ao novo episódio de 'Planeta Terra' no #Fantástico: https://t.co/6OgRf3MW8T

Dom Phillips’ book: “How to Save the Amazon” has a cover and will be published in May, 2025.

The murders of Dom and Bruno Pereira are not the end of their story. The voices they wanted to amplify will not be silenced. Our friend’s work goes on.

Extreme heat and drought could have killed 100+ endangered Amazon river dolphins, scientists suspect.

A aprovação do marco temporal na CCJ hoje é flagrantemente inconstitucional! Além de invadir a competência do STF, que já decidiu sobre o tema, vai de encontro ao direito constitucional à terra a TODOS os povos que aqui vivem.

O respeito aos direitos dos povos originários é parte de nosso pacto civilizatório. Precisamos reconhecer os direitos históricos dos povos que sempre ocuparam o território do nosso Brasil muito antes de que nestas terras se constituísse uma nação!

The Amazon rainforest is one of the most vital major ecosystems on Earth—but it is under threat.

In this issue of Science, researchers underscore the rapid and profound changes occurring in the Amazon resulting from ever-increasing human activity. https://t.co/L2JeWVmCM7

We are on the front cover of Science! Our new paper shows how much of the Amazon has already been affected by human disturbances (climate change, fire, logging and edge effects) and its social, economical and ecological impacts 👇

A democracia no Brasil tá realmente se deteriorando no governo Bolsonaro? O projeto Varieties of Democracy analisa a situação dos regimes democráticos em vários países ao longo dos anos. Isso é o que o projeto diz sobre o Brasil:

[Le Monde Diplomatique Brasil @diplobrasil]

Bolsonaro pode ser o autor do maior esquema de corrupção da história do Brasil

Em 5 de outubro, o presidente desviou mais R$ 10,5 bilhões de verbas que seriam destinadas à saúde, ciência e educação para agregar metade do valor ao “orçamento secreto”

No 1o turno @jairbolsonaro venceu as eleições em 265 municipios na Amazônia que respodem por 70% da área desmatada entre 1985-2021. @LulaOficial venceu em 499 que respodem por 30% do desmatamento. Não é coincidência.
