Thinking we have time left to address climate change, or that “Net Zero by 2050” will save us, is driving us toward full social collapse in ways that become more obvious with every new broken temperat...

Butterflies are redrawing the map of where they live. A global review of butterfly range shifts finds movement on every continent where they occur, at a scale no earlier survey captured. The stakes reach past the insects. Butterflies pollinate plants, feed birds, and act as an early alarm. When their ranges move this fast, whole food webs are shifting underneath them. Researchers compiled 6,182 range shift records for 1,758 species across 105 countries. That is roughly one in ten of the butterfly species known to science. Butterfly ranges shift worldwide The work was led by Dr. Shawan Chowdhury, head of the Global Change Ecology Lab at Monash University, with 68 butterfly experts from 49 countries as co-authors. “We found butterfly species shifting their ranges on every continent where they occur. The scale is astonishing, and it’s happening far beyond the well-studied regions of Europe and North America,” says Chowdhury. In the dataset, 80% of species expanded their ranges. Another 27% contracted, and 22% moved up or down mountain slopes. A single species can fall into more than one group. Climate change and severe weather were linked to 79% of the documented shifts. Agriculture and human disturbance came next, and they...

European renewable energy investment should increase because the continent’s dependence on imported fossil fuels has become a direct risk for prices, security and economic stability, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said in Frankfurt on Tuesday. Speaking at an ECB conference on climate, nature and monetary policy, Lagarde argued that the latest surge in energy prices linked to the war in Iran should be treated as a warning for Europe. Her message was not only environmental. It was also economic: a continent that imports a large share of its energy remains exposed to external shocks, geopolitical crises and inflationary pressure.
