The evidence is all around us. Our industrialized civilization is taking us into an unlivable future. Every continent is affected by the fever we have inflicted on our planet. The gravity of the climate emergency is clear. Even as the crisis hits the United States and Europe - #MauiFires, Midwest hailstorms, hot tub ocean temperatures in Florida, Italian cities on red alert, Spain in drought, extended #HeatWaves- mirroring what's been happening in the global south, political action is still not happening. What will it take for world leaders to stop subsidizing extinction? And what do the next decades portend? In this program, Peter Carter, the director of the #ClimateEmergency Institute, and co-author of Unprecedented Crime: Climate Science Denial and Game Changers for Survival and Paul Beckwith, Climate System Scientist and Professor of Climatology, Meteorology, and Oceanography at the University of Ottawa and Carleton University look at this question and explain why getting off fossil fuels is essential to our survival.

Despite the major decline in energy prices from their peak in 2008, energy security concerns have increased as major producing and consuming economies differ significantly on how to develop a more secure and stable energy system. 

How can producers and consumers develop mutually beneficial approaches to energy security?

http://innovate4climate.com - Innovate4Climate is about tapping the ideas and ingenuity of a growing community of business, finance, technology, civil society and policy leaders and increasing their role in driving climate action. With over 1,100 participants from 70 countries convening in Frankfurt, Germany, the second edition of Innovate4Climate reaffirmed the event's role in tackling climate change and accelerating climate-smart investment. "If we want to move from billions to trillions, we need to bring in the private sector." - Hartwig Schafer, Vice President, Global Themes, World Bank Group "It's governments behaving differently, it's individuals, it's the private sector behaving differently, it's civil society stepping up - you have to tap into ideas from every corner." - Hans Peter Lankes, Vice President, Economics and Private Sector Development, IFC "We must keep going in the knowledge that the cumulative effort of all of us working together can get us to the future that we want." - Tim Jarvis, Environmental Explorer

Ahead of COP26, Eliot Whittington, Director of the Corporate Leaders Groups, caught up with Peter Simpson, CEO of Anglian Water, to explore the challenges and opportunities in the net zero transition

Ahead of COP26, Eliot Whittington, Director of the Corporate Leaders Groups, caught up with Peter Simpson, CEO of Anglian Water, to explore the challenges and opportunities in the net zero transition - and what outcomes he would like to see from the landmark climate summit. The CLG has frequently defined the UK’s business response to climate change – one of the greatest challenges of our time. Since its founding in 2005 under the leadership of CISL’s Patron HRH The Prince of Wales, the CLG has helped build consensus across the UK business community in support of climate action. It spoke first and loudest in support of the UK’s Climate Change Act, and now sits at the heart of a growing community of progressive business voices in Europe and around the world. The CLG is convened by the University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership's world-leading expertise on sustainability and a team that has a deep understanding of the political landscape and how to shape it. #AchievingZero #COP26 #COP26Glasgow #TogetherForOurPlanet

SME Climate Hub: Supporting SMEs to decarbonise Wednesday 3 November COP26, WMB Business Pavilion, Blue Zone, SEC, Glasgow Globally, SMEs account for over 90% of businesses. Climate action by SMEs

SME Climate Hub: Supporting SMEs to decarbonise Wednesday 3 November COP26, WMB Business Pavilion, Blue Zone, SEC, Glasgow Globally, SMEs account for over 90% of businesses. Climate action by SMEs is therefore essential if we are to achieve our global goal of an inclusive net zero economy, consistent with the ambition of the Race to Zero. This session explored some of the challenges and opportunities for engaging SMEs, highlighting action by government, finance and businesses, as well as featuring SMEs who have already made the SME Climate Commitment. The session also introduced the SME Climate Hub tool being launched by BSR and CISL that will provide a free online training course for global SMEs in decarbonisation. Speakers: Andrew Griffith MEP, UK Net Zero Business Champion, BEIS Giulio Berruti, Director, BSR Peter Simpson, CEO, Anglian Water Oliver Holbourn, Head of Strategy, NatWest Gonzalo

Why your carbon footprint is a scam, explained. Check out Climate Town here: https://www.youtube.com/c/climatetown?sub_confirmation=1 In this special Our Changing Climate video, I showcase Rollie at Climate Town's video all about why your carbon footprint is a scam. Through this carbon footprint video, Rollie reveals how and why the BP oil created the idea of the carbon footprint. Over the course of multiple decades, BP used the idea of a carbon footprint to push the responsibility and the burden of carbon emissions onto the individual and away from their own practices. Essentially BP created the carbon footprint as an elaborate victim-blaming scheme. Your carbon footprint matters, but the reason why you have a carbon footprint in the first place is that fossil fuel companies like BP have fought tooth and nail against any kind of transition away from oil and gas.

#Glaciers cool the planet and provide freshwater from yearly snowpack for billions of people and ecosystems. But in the Himalayas and the Alps, ice loss is accelerating as glaciers shrink. Rapid melting has led to #avalanches and flash floods, which exacerbated the heavy monsoon rains in Pakistan in 2022. At the same time, both poles are losing ice mass at an unanticipated rate. Professors Detlef Stammer, Director of the Center for Earth System Research and Sustainability at the University of Hamburg and Peter Wadhams, Emeritus Professor of Ocean Physics at Cambridge University share their findings about our disappearing glaciers, and some of the measures that are being taken to try to save them.

Greenland’s ice sheets contain enough fresh water to raise sea levels over twenty feet. While this is not an immediate threat, the latest research shows that #Greenland’sGlaciers are shrinking

Greenland’s ice sheets contain enough fresh water to raise sea levels over twenty feet. While this is not an immediate threat, the latest research shows that #Greenland’sGlaciers are shrinking at seven times the rate of just a few years ago, an average of 30 million tonnes an hour. Fresh water entering the ocean from this melting has major implications for the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation , or #AMOC, which is critical to maintain global weather patterns. Peter Wadhams, Emeritus Professor of Ocean Physics at Cambridge University and Climate Scientist, Paul Beckwith describe what is happening on this sensitive continent.

Josh Wharton is the most accomplished alpinist you’ve never heard of. But while he’s been quietly crushing ambitious objectives to little or no fanfare, fatherhood, and warming weather have begun to reshape the world he knew. When Wharton and his climbing partner Vince Anderson attempt to take the 2003 Italian route to the summit of Jirishanca in Peru, they’re forced to account for risk as never before.
