Does going into COP feel a bit like entering Severance?
Someone put the comparison to Ed King - inside the negotiations, the real world can feel very far away. At least there’s a new COP season every year...
But pledges matter beyond the room, and when countries say yes to clean electrification, it can send a powerful signal to markets.
With our hosts following from home, Ed reports back from Antalya. Hear his take in today’s Outrage + Optimism. 🎧

We HAVE to move away from fossil fuels, but how fast can we move to clean electricity? ⚡
COP31 hosts are urging countries to back “35 by 35”: electricity meeting 35% of global energy demand by 2035.
But clean power, capable grids and growing energy demand all matter. Do you think the target is achievable?

“We have people dying”
Delhi woke up this morning to “very poor” and “severe” air quality after Diwali fireworks went off late into the night. That’s despite the recent ruling by India’s Supreme Court that only certified low-polluting firecrackers would be allowed, and only for limited hours.
Local reports are calling it the most polluted Diwali in five years. India Gate was hidden in smog.
When we spoke to clean-air campaigner @bhavreenmalhotra in India this summer, she was clear: firecrackers have to go. They’re not the biggest source of Delhi’s pollution, but they add to air that’s already dangerous to breathe, at the worst time of year.
Schools in Delhi have moved classes online and the government has urged those who can to work from home.

⭐ The Yearly Offer of Action is back, and more mayors are involved than ever before.
From cleaner energy to greener public spaces, cities around the world are pledging actions to deliver on climate goals.
Through the Yearly Offer of Action, C40 and @mayors4climate cities are turning climate targets into real results year after year.

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.

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.

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 🌍

What do forests mean to all of us? And how do we begin to grasp the scale of what we’re losing?
In our latest episode, @tomcarnac reflects on deforestation, biodiversity loss and why protecting forests means protecting our shared future.
Listen to the latest episode of Outrage + Optimism, out today 🌳

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. 🎙️

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.

A box office flop, or a film asking uncomfortable questions about Big Oil?
Having seen Digger twice, @cfigueres thinks it’s brilliant and finds it a liiiiittle suspicious how quickly it was written off.
In our latest episode, Tom and Christiana explore why its message could pose a threat to fossil fuel interests, and ask what might be shaping the conversation around it.
Have you seen Digger? What did you make of it?
Listen to episode 386 of Outrage + Optimism: Digger’s flop, Big Oil and the bots: What actually moves people?

We welcomed @cfigueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac, Paul Dickinson and the Outrage + Optimism - The Climate Podcast to a packed Bath Abbey last week for the final event in our 60th anniversary Adelard Series.
Ahead of the event, PhD student Sarah Barfield Marks spoke to Tom Rivett-Carnac about what makes him optimistic about the efforts to shape a more sustainable future.
