The destabilisation of the #AMOC is no longer a distant scenario - it’s a national and global security risk. In a new article in Dagens Nyheter, Iceland’s Climate Minister Jóhann Páll Jóhannsson and I outline actions to tackle this threat: https://t.co/1tfJJGNpUT (in Swedish)

Vad händer om Golfströmmen stannar av? Den senaste forskningen tyder på att vi kan närma oss så kallade tippningspunkter.

The 2025 Lancet Countdown report shows health systems are preparing for the dangers of climate change whilst reducing their greenhouse gas emissions. Education on climate change is increasing with almost two-thirds of medical students globally receiving climate and health

If the likelihood of a catastrophic event is > 10% then the Risks are unacceptable high. This is the point we have reached on scientific evidence for AMOC shutdown. This is the "Don't look up moment" for risks of liveability on Earth

"There will never be a time like this. I've never seen anything like this. I doubt I'll ever feel anything like this in business again." — CEO of @joinHandshake @GarrettLord
Zero to $50M in 4 months. $100M+ in 12 months. That's the story of how @JoinHandshake discovered they were sitting on AI's most valuable resource: 20 million students and experts. For a decade, @GarrettLord built a career network for students and PhDs. A great business, growing

New comment in @TheLancet: Planetary boundaries & health are inseparable. Breaching planetary boundaries already costs lives, through climate extremes, water stress, pollution & rising health threats. Science must drive the transformation to protect both. https://t.co/VemHUh4bwC

The best description of Palantir that I've ever read is "the Salesforce for killing people"
I want to talk to you about Palantir and its expanding footprint in Australia. TLDR: You should be worried. This US surveillance tech company has secured multiple Defence contracts worth over $11 million. We need transparency about what data they're accessing & why. 🧵
