Climate wasn’t on the ballot in the US midterms? HELLO?! @cfigueres isn’t buying it. The war in Iran sent fossil fuel prices soaring, Americans felt it at the pump, and voters made their frustration clear. So, was climate winning votes without being named? Tom and Christiana join the dots in the latest episode of Outrage + Optimism. 05 Nov 2026 Extreme heat is putting pregnant women and their babies at risk. I’m the mother of two daughters and the grandmother of a little boy. I know what it is to carry a child and to wait for a grandchild to arrive. When I think about what extreme heat means for pregnant women and their babies, I think about that very familiar hope that they will both be safe. No woman should have to worry that a hot day at work or a sweltering night at home could put her pregnancy at risk. We know extreme heat can harm pregnant women and their babies. We also know there are ways to protect them. Ahead of #COP31, I’m joining @wellcometrust and colleagues across climate and health in calling for stronger national protections, dedicated WHO guidance on heat and pregnancy, and better data so we can see who is most at risk and hold leaders accountable for protecting them. When governments make plans for extreme heat, pregnant women and their babies must be among the first people they think about. Head to the Wellcome pages to join the global call. 05 Nov 2026 Hope. That’s what it feels like today. 💙 Historic wins, a resounding rebuke to Trump’s leadership and a reminder that showing up matters. Trump asked Americans to vote as though he was on the ballot. As @tomcarnac puts it: careful what you wish for… In our upcoming episode, we unpack the results and ask: is climate policy winning elections without being named? And @cfigueres speaks to Chris Bowen ahead of COP31. 04 Nov 2026 I am deeply saddened by the passing of my friend Penehuro Lefale. I will miss his warmth, his generous heart, and the quiet determination with which he served the people and places he loved. Pene began his career as a weather observer in Apia, Samoa. He went on to help develop the Kyoto Protocol and to serve as a lead author of the IPCC’s chapter on small islands, contributing to the work for which the IPCC shared the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize. What I especially admired about Pene was how he brought his Samoan roots into his work. He documented how generations of Samoans had learned to read the winds, the clouds, and changes in plants and animal behavior to anticipate shifts in the weather. He helped the wider climate community see how much we could learn from that knowledge and how it could help Pacific communities prepare for a changing climate. My heart is with his children, of whom he was so proud, with all his family and loved ones. The climate change community will miss you sorely. 04 Nov 2026 American voters have rejected Trump’s agenda as Democrats take control of Congress in the US midterms. Our host @cfigueres explains why this is a win not only for Americans but also for the global fight to protect the climate. 🇺🇸🌱 We'll be bringing you our hosts' analysis of how we got here and what this means for the climate on our next episode of Outrage+Optimism on Thursday 🎧 04 Nov 2026 This January 30 – February 6, 2027, Christiana Figueres joins our Wisdom & Wellbeing week Waking Up to What Matters: Mindfulness, Courage & Compassionate Action. A proud Costa Rican and former head of the UN climate change convention, she was the chief architect of the Paris Agreement, bringing 195 nations together on a shared path forward. In her class, Rising Strong: The Future We Choose, she shows how we can awaken to our interconnectedness and rise strong to meet this planetary crisis. 💙 She teaches alongside Jon Kabat-Zinn, Roshi Joan Halifax, Frank Ostaseski, and more. Discover the full lineup and register, link in bio. 02 Nov 2026 With Blue Planet returning to our screens, we're looking back at when Sir David Attenborough joined us on Outrage + Optimism. His words on our shared responsibility to protect the natural world feel just as powerful today. A reminder that while there is so much at stake, there is still so much worth fighting for. And that responsibility belongs to all of us 🌍 02 Nov 2026 Meet our Climate Action Day speaker: Christiana Figueres! 🌍🙌 Christiana is a Costa Rican climate leader, diplomat, and author who famously led 196 nations to unanimously adopt the landmark Paris Agreement as Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC. She later co-founded Global Optimism, co-authored The Future We Choose, and co-hosts the Outrage + Optimism podcast. Today, she also convenes worldwide retreats combining Zen Buddhism and nature protection to empower global environmental leaders. 📅 November 5 💻 Free, online and live 🕗 8:00 AM New York | 2:00 PM Brussels | 6:30 PM New Delhi You cant miss Climate Action Day 2026! 🔗 Link in our bio. @cfigueres #ClimateActionDay #ActionStartsHere #ClimateActionEdu 02 Nov 2026 Would you accept Viktor Orbán as UN Secretary-General? Not a question we thought we’d have to ask. US officials are reportedly backing Hungary’s former prime minister for the role, potentially with support from Russia and China. Would the world accept him? Or, as @cfigueres asks, is the US playing all kinds of games to weaken the UN? Christiana and Tom debate what this could mean for the future of the UN on tomorrow’s Outrage + Optimism. 🎙️ 28 Oct 2026 Following Lula’s election victory in Brazil, @cfigueres shares a message of renewed hope for the country and all who care about our shared future. From protecting the Amazon to upholding Indigenous Peoples’ rights, Brazil has the leadership and credibility to help shape a more resilient world for everyone. Now is the time to turn that hope into action. 26 Oct 2026 What news would you like to wake up to in 2036? Mine would be: “UN adopts landmark declaration: human and planetary wellbeing are inseparable” For @museumfortheun’s tenth anniversary on UN Day, I was invited to imagine one headline from a future I would like to help make real. My contribution is part of The Global We Times - a newspaper from 24 October 2036, bringing together imagined headlines from across culture, climate, science, philanthropy and public life. This is mine. What would yours be? Explore the Global We Times: link in bio at @museumfortheun #GlobalWeTimes #UNLive10 #UNDay 25 Oct 2026 The heat from Europe’s summer has faded, but only now is its true human cost becoming clear. New research from @granthaminstituteicl estimates that more than 50,000 people died from heat across 854 European urban areas this summer, with around two thirds of those deaths attributable to human-caused climate change. Researchers at @imperialcollege and @lshtm used temperature data and established links between heat and mortality to model the toll. As Emma Howard Boyd told us this summer, when these figures arrive in colder months, we can feel disconnected from the danger. Cooler weather must not mean looking away. 23 Oct 2026
