Activists struggle with the high costs when designing the visual identity of protests, which often lack sufficient  funding. Matthew Hinders-Anderson took it upon himself` to create “good-looking, freely-distributable fonts” that could be used by any “activist, an[y] academic, or anyone just trying to make this world a better place”.

Another designer who cannot go unmentioned in this context is Tré Seals, whose typefaces are inspired by social justice movements, especially those within the Black community.

Robbie Andrew’s area and line charts are updated weekly to include the current atmospheric CO₂ concentration at Mauna Loa in Hawaii, sea surface temperature anomalies, and the global average atmospheric CO₂ concentration.

China's expansion of solar and wind power is breathtaking, both in terms of scale and technological progress. In contrast to Trump’s USA, China’s CO₂ emissions have remained constant or even fallen over the last 18 months.
As a result, the West is losing its pioneering role and more and more countries are turning to China. Countries that in the past were assured “common but differentiated responsibilities” for climate change, but which are now making astonishing progress. In his newsletter post, Bill McRibben shows how India, Pakistan, Jordan, Brazil, India, Vietnam, Ethiopia, and Nepal are finding progressive and innovative climate solutions.

In August 2009, Duncan Porter visited the Rhône Glacier in Wallis, Switzerland, and took a selfie with his wife in front of it. Fifteen years later, in August 2025, he returned and took another selfie with his wife in front of the glacier. The viral post shows the glacier’s staggering retreat.

Others who have documented the glacier's retreat include Christian Åslund of Greenpeace and Neill Drake.

Cooled people “work mostly indoors, bathed in the soothing breeze of manufactured air.” Cooked people are those, who are delivery drivers, oil field workers, farmworkers, construction workers, …

In his opinion peace for The New York Times, Jeff Goodell, author of The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Planet, describes the divide between these two groups as “The New American Inequality: The Cooled vs. the Cooked.” However, this uneven suffering can certainly be extended to people outside the USA.

Alan Taylor of The Atlantic has shared a collection of photographs showcasing the wildfires raging in southern Europe.

Through the analysis of satellite imagery and on-the-ground reporting, Bloomberg reports on the devastating situation in Gaza for its people and environment, and for any future life in and around the region. The article is a sweeping indictment of all the consequences: “In the towns and cities, collapsing buildings have left at least 55 million metric tons of rubble […] and released toxic dust and smoke into the air.” “[W]aste water flows through streets and farmland. That mixes with heavy metals, including lead, mercury and cadmium, which have leaked from unexploded ordnance and other war remnants.” “[D]rug-resistant pathogens emerge from the polluted soil and unsanitary conditions, and toxic chemicals spread on the wind, in water, by migrating wildlife and the movement of people and vehicles.” The consequences are not confined to the region, with “about 84,000 cubic meters of sewage […] ending up in the Mediterranean Sea each day in July [2025].”

Last year, China installed more wind turbines and solar panels than the rest of the world combined. In his photojournalistic newsletter, Alan Taylor shared a catalogue of photos showcasing the staggering scale of China’s solar panel installation.

Unlike Attenborough’s other films, which mostly celebrate the wonders of life’s diversity, Ocean (2025, 1 h 35 min) focuses on the devastating destruction of our world’s vital marine ecosystems. The film rightly addresses the main problem: overfishing and the fishing industry’s destructive techniques. The film advocates marine protected areas (MPAs), fishing techniques that do not involve discarding three-quarters of the catch, and highlights the importance of the ocean in binding carbon dioxide.
