Amid the noise, there is a clear signal from the IEA’s World Energy Outlook: the energy transition is underway. Clean energy is surging – solar up 344% and wind nearly doubling by 2035 – and fossil fuel demand will peak around 2030 if governments stick to their pledges (1/7)

Israel has killed over 11,500 Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank since October 7th, when 36 Israeli children were killed.
It’s impossible to imagine that number. This is what it looks like. A line 5km long.
