1/ 🚨HSBC made a *secretive* multimillion-dollar loan to the energy company bulldozing a village in western Germany to expand its huge coal mine, just three months after the bank pledged to stop funding coal

This update on climate tipping points is one of the scariest papers I've read in a while. The crisis doesn't unfold slowly, linear, and why the 1.5°C goal is so crucial.

[Carbon Tracker @CarbonBubble]

Despite claiming to have #netzero targets, new research finds that in the UK, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan & the US, corporate emissions targets are on track to go through the #ParisAgreement targets and hit 2.7°C of warming. https://t.co/Xyj22knTdf

[Market Forces @market_forces]

Adani’s #coal production, as both MDO (miner, developer, operator) and owner (commercial mining), has been steadily increasing since the Paris Agreement was signed. The Carmichael coal mine could turbocharge this trend.

Let’s hope such a crazy anomaly is impossible in inhabited regions of the planet…

[David Wallace-Wells @dwallacewells]

“These 2021 emissions consumed 8.7% of the remaining carbon budget for limiting anthropogenic warming to 1.5 °C, which if current trajectories continue, might be used up in 9.5 years at 67% likelihood.” https://t.co/Js8RaZbAcI

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

Shameful that the Tories, who claim to ‘lead the way’ on climate, have taken hefty donations from the same source as Nigel Farage's anti-net zero cabal

This is blatant hypocrisy – we need urgent investigation into Tory donors’ dirty ties to fossil fuels

We are hosting a major event on methane emissions @payneinstitute @coschoolofmines next week.

It will include keynotes from @turkdm of @ENERGY , Chris Smith of @Cheniere, and @SenatorHick!

It is virtual and you are all invited:

[Business and Human Rights Centre @BHRCmedia]

A deadly mining accident which killed 17 people and injured hundreds more in #Ghana in January has sparked calls for industry reform.

Experts highlight lack of risk assessment and inadequate support & information for local communities on mining hazards ⬇️ https://t.co/23krP7491o

Today seems like a good day to share this amazing graphic of UK land use

(I estimate solar farms cover less than one tenth of one percent of the UK – 0.08%)

[BankTrack 🦋 @banktrack.bsky.social @BankTrack]

Nice to be quoted in the WSJ, although we think by "some energy analysts" the journalist meant "the International Energy Agency, mainstream climate scientists, the journal Nature and almost anyone without a financial stake in saying otherwise"

[Dr Michal Nachmany 🌍 @NachmanyMichal]

If there was a shred of doubt after the Shell exhibition and ongoing BP and co. sponsorship, that the Science Museum are on the wrong side of history -- they now go and team up with Adani, not only a coal empire, but one of the worst ones.
