'The world is awful — The world is much better — The world can be much better', is a short article on why we are building @OurWorldInData. → ourworldindata.org/much-better-aw… Today I've updated the data and made entirely new visualizations for it, as it is one of my most-read articles.
Richest five families in Florence 🇮🇹 from 1427 are still the richest today (archival data). Not only the top shows persistence. Any family who was in the (1427) top third is almost certain to still be there today. Likely many Florences out there Paper in Review of Econ Studies
Global investment in clean energy is on course to rise to $1.7 trillion in 2023. And for the first time ever, solar is set to attract more capital than oil production this year. This reflects the changing tide in the energy world → iea.li/3tBaZHu
Dürre in Frankreich: Erste Départments verbieten nicht nur, Schwimmbecken zu füllen - sondern komplett den Verkauf der Pools. "Es hat seit einem Jahr keinen nennenswerten Regentag mehr gegeben." Die Wassernot führt zu beispiellosen Verboten #Freiheit centrepresseaveyron.fr/2023/05/06/sec…
Für die @wochentaz habe ich mit drei Expert:innen über den #Kipppunkt im Amazonas Regenwald gesprochen. Bei 20-25 % Abholzung und 2,5 °C Erderhitzung könnte der Wald zur Savanna kippen, erklärt mir Carlos Nobre. Bereits jetzt sind 18 % abgeholzt. 🪵 1/4 taz.de/Regenwald-in-G…
Mit @ilonamotto @ManjanaM @LFesenfeld @TomPowly @JonathanDonges und @i_stadelmann habe ich über Soziale Kipppunkte gesprochen. Hört gerne rein - nur noch bis Montag verfügbar.
Große Teile Europas erleben eine drastische Winterdürre: In den Alpen hat es dieses Jahr um 63% weniger geschneit. In der Schweiz & Frankreich wird Wasser rationiert. Und der Rhein führt sowenig Wasser, dass er nur noch eingeschränkt schiffbar ist. Ein Thread 🧵
"A study published in January by Graz University of Technology in Austria, whose scientists used satellite data to analyse groundwater reserves, concluded that Europe has been in drought since 2018 and its water situation was now “very precarious”."

WOW – stunning new @IEA data shows one in every seven new cars is now an EV. Globally. Five years ago, it was just one in 70!? Meanwhile, conventional car sales have crashed, falling a massive 25% in five years.
"The 330m sport utility vehicles on the roads produced emissions equivalent to the combined national emissions of the UK and Germany last year. If SUVs were a country, they would rank as the sixth most polluting in the world."

The growth in the number of millionaires will significantly contribute to emissions, reducing the chances of stabilizing climate change at 1.5°C. Policy measures such as progressive taxes may not be enough to address the high emissions of the wealthiest.

This needs to get mainstreamed. And not only hand waving but real. World’s biggest investment fund warns directors to tackle climate crisis or face sack theguardian.com/business/2023/…
For @CarbonBrief, I plotted every extreme weather event in Africa recorded in the Emergency Events Database for 2022
@WWF @OfficialZSL @OurWorldInData The Living Planet Index is very easy to misinterpret (I've done it in the past). But it's important that we get it right. Otherwise we end up with bad & misleading headlines (like this one 👇) 1/
Lots of attention (rightly) on projections that China’s population might fall by ⚠️ roughly half ⚠️ by end of this century, but not sure people appreciate quite how widespread this dynamic is. More than a dozen countries (most of them in Europe) are set to shrink even faster 📉
#Chile Trauerstimmung auf der #PlazaDignidad, wo 2019 die soziale Revolte begonnen hat - die neue Verfassung wurde abgelehnt
