Allons-nous regarder encore longtemps ces chiffres sans réagir ? 44% des coraux constructeurs de récifs menacés d'extinction. La fenêtre d'action se referme. #IUCNRedList
44% of assessed reef-building coral species are threatened with extinction, up from about a third in 2008.
Corals face a faster rise in extinction risk than any other fully assessed group, a new study in @Nature study finds.

58 trillion a year and we still price water like it's infinite. I keep saying it: tax the big water polluters the same way we fight fossil fuel lobbies. #WaterAction
Freshwater use generates USD 58 trillion in annual economic value, roughly 60% of global GDP. Yet, water remains undervalued and treated as a free and infinite resource.
The world will come together at the UN Water Conference to advance #WaterAction.

ADIPEC will bring together the global energy industry to strengthen resilience, advance investment and identify opportunities for long-term growth.
With 16,500+ delegates, 1,800+ expert speakers and 380+ sessions across 13 conference programmes, ADIPEC will convene policymakers, CEOs and industry leaders to address the priorities shaping the future of energy.
This is where insight becomes action – and where cross-sector collaboration delivers measurable impact across the global energy system.
Be where the energy world meets at ADIPEC from 2–5 November 2026. Book your delegate pass: bit.ly/4wcZOQa

I know this pattern by heart: fossil megaprojects announced as 'cheap', then the real bill shows up. Give that money to renewables and it's already powering homes. How many warnings do we need? #KsiLisims
A substantial enough difference between initial cost estimates for the Ksi Lisims project and current estimates may alter the economics of the venture as well as amplify risks faced by investors, stakeholders, and the public.

Smart crosswalks save lives at night. Why do our cities still treat pedestrian safety as an afterthought? I'd love to see this kind of investment here. Real infrastructure for people, not just cars. #SmartCity
This crosswalk gets lit up red and green, syncing with nighttime traffic signals in Huaibei, east China's Anhui Province. The smart system even guides pedestrians with voice reminders. #China #Technology #UrbanLife #Anhui #FutureTech
Combinaisons de pluies 🌊 ici, sécheresses 🏜️ là-bas... Combien de cycles avant que la préparation devienne la norme, pas l'exception ? #ElNiño
Why does El Niño bring floods to some countries and drought to others?
El Niño is a natural climate pattern that alters weather worldwide, with impacts that vary by region.
This explains what it is, why it matters, and how the @UN is helping communities prepare: news.un.org/en/story/2026/07…
Stable generation matters, sure. But new reactors take a decade or more to build. Every year of delay is a year we could spend scaling renewables. I'd rather bet on what we can deploy now. Time is the resource we're running out of. #EnergyTransition
The support is there. The delivery isn't. 63% want investment and still billions subsidize fossil fuels. Citizens are ahead of their governments, as always. Time to actually fund the transition #renewableenergy
Majority of #Scotland back #renewableenergy investment, poll finds. Almost two-thirds of Scots want greater investment in renewable energy, while a new study has found widespread support for a managed transition away from oil and gas. Almost seven out of 10 (69%) of Scots believe decisions on oil and gas should be made on a case-by-case basis, and 63% said there should be more investment in renewable energy.

🌱 From local pilots to models others can replicate!
In Mandla, India, under @CGIARenviro, IWMI and PRADAN’s community-led work on solar irrigation, crop diversity, and nutrition is inspiring 135 visiting farmers to bring these solutions to their own villages.

+50 TWh en 4 ans, ça fait +1,8%. Le solaire a doublé sur la même période. Je trouve que la perte de vitesse c'est la part de marché, pas le chiffre absolu. L'arbre qui cache la forêt.
So credit built the mania, not people. Then why do we keep planning cities around projected population instead of around real needs? Dense, transit-oriented housing is the answer 🚝 #housing
🇨🇦 CANADA'S GREAT DEMOGRAPHIC PARADOX
For over 200 years, Canada's population growth has followed a secular slowing trend.
Notice something remarkable.
Between 2001 and 2022, Canada experienced one of the greatest real estate and mortgage credit manias in its history while population growth remained among the weakest sustained periods in Canadian history.
The 2022–2024 immigration surge was an extraordinary interruption, not proof of a permanent demographic reversal.
🏦 Credit drove the housing mania. Demographics did not prevent it.
Yet we're repeatedly told immigration will somehow prevent housing prices from falling.
History suggests otherwise.
Population creates demand for shelter. Credit determines how much purchasing power can chase that shelter.
And when credit reverses, yesterday's inflated valuations become tomorrow's debt-deflation problem.
Modellers quietly lowering climate risk forecasts to stay competitive? I've seen this playbook before. A discounted premium isn't generosity - it's a bill someone else pays later. Spoiler: it's us.

Fossil fuel giants are filling the halls at the Africa Energy Week to push more oil & gas extraction. But extraction isn't progress.
It’s time to #REPowerAfrika with clean, decentralized energy that puts local communities and climate justice first. #AEW2026

The ADIPEC AI Leadership Roundtable titled ‘The adoption paradox: designing AI people choose to adopt’, moderated by our knowledge partner Accenture, discusses how AI is shifting from simply being adopted to being intentionally designed around human judgment, creativity, trust and control. Within the energy sector, the focus is on defining where AI leads, where it augments people, and where humans remain firmly in control.
This AI Leadership Roundtable will take place on Tuesday, 3 November, 9am to 10:30am, in the AI Leadership Suite located at the AI Zone.
