Governments are facing growing pressure to take action against the outsized carbon footprint of the world’s wealthiest. Activists are calling for bans on carbon-heavy luxury goods and new taxes on fossil fuel profits, arguing these measures are crucial to meet climate targets and address global inequality. New analysis from Oxfam shows just how severe the imbalance has become. The richest one per cent of people had already used up their annual carbon budget just ten days into 2026 — a milestone dubbed “Pollutocrat Day,” marking the point when emissions exceed the limit needed to keep global warming under 1.5°C.

Noem warned, “The ghost fleets will not outrun justice,” stressing that deceptive vessels would be held accountable. Details of…
US President Donald Trump has ordered the United States to withdraw from dozens of international organisations. Many of these groups focus on climate change and environmental protection. Nearly half of the 66 affected organisations are linked to the United Nations. The list includes the Framework Convention on Climate Change, which forms the foundation of global climate cooperation. The decision also targets organisations working on development, gender equality, and conflict prevention. The administration has repeatedly criticised these areas as ideological or globalist. The White House said these organisations no longer serve American interests and promote hostile or ineffective agendas. White House…

The regain occurred nearly four times faster than in people following behavioural weight-loss programmes such as diet or exercise plans. Researchers also found that improvements in blood pressure…
