Scientists warn of severe climate-related risks to UK economy and security
Experts lay out scale of changes needed in ‘first-of-its-kind national emergency briefing’ in Westminster
A host of eminent scientists have warned politicians, business and community leaders that the UK risks severe climate-related risks to its economy, public health, food systems and national security.
According to its organisers more than 1,000 corporate bosses, senior civil servants and civic leaders were set to assemble in the Methodist central hall in Westminster for the “first-of-its-kind national emergency briefing” on Thursday morning.

Beyond the negative headlines, some truly good things came out of Cop30
In this week’s newsletter: Ultimately, climate progress will come from real-world action, and this year’s summit made some promising strides on that front
• Don’t get Down to Earth delivered to your inbox? Sign up here
Some commentators have called Cop30 a failure. An attempt to insert plans for a route to the phaseout of fossil fuels into the legal text was stymied, consideration of how to improve countries’ emissions-cutting plans was put off till next year, and although developing countries got the tripling of finance for adaptation that they were seeking, it will not be delivered in full until 2035 – and will come out of already promised funds.
Look beyond the headlines, however, and the Cop achieved a great deal more. Take the outcome on fossil fuels – it seems absurd, but until 2023 three decades of annual climate summits had failed to address fossil fuels directly.

After a career as an environment writer, here’s what I have learned
Paul Brown looks back at his career reporting on the climate crisis, failed summit and nuclear power – and how to do it well
Paul Brown was the Guardian’s environment correspondent from1989 until 2005 and has written many columns since. He submitted his last column last week after being diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. From his hospital bed in Luton, Pauloffers his reflections on45 years writing for theGuardian.
We, in the climate business, all owe a great deal to Mrs Margaret Thatcher. Her politics were anathema to me and to many Guardian readers. But she prided herself on being a scientist before she was a politician.

‘We like it a lot’: how Romania created its hugely popular deposit return scheme
In the two years since the system was launched, beverage-packaging collection and recycling has risen to 94%
In the Transylvanian village of Pianu de Jos, 51-year-old Dana Chitucescu gathers a sack of empty polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles, aluminium cans and glass every week and takes it to her local shop.
Like millions of Romanians across cities and rural areas, Chitucescu has woven the country’s two-year-old deposit return system (DRS) into her routine.

Many ships found breaching pollution limits despite tighter controls
Researchers using aircraft to sample exhaust plumes say infringements persist – even in stricter zones
A new study has found that a significant proportion of ships are breaching air pollution limits.
Although the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has set regulations for shipping pollution since 2005, it is hard to know what happens once ships are at sea.

Africa’s forests transformed from carbon sink to carbon source, study finds
Alarming shift since 2010 means planet’s three main rainforest regions now contribute to climate breakdown
Africa’s forests have turned from a carbon sink into a carbon source, according to research that underscores the need for urgent action to save the world’s great natural climate stabilisers.
The alarming shift, which has happened since 2010, means all of the planet’s three main rainforest regions – the South American Amazon, south-east Asia and Africa – have gone from being allies in the fight against climate breakdown to being part of the problem.

Australia’s ‘protestival’: kayaks, music, a push for climate change action – and the risk of arrest
Fossil fuel protesters are making their annual pilgrimage to the NSW city of Newcastle to draw attention to climate policy failure. Police will be there too, with a ‘zero tolerance approach’

It has become an annual pilgrimage. Each November, thousands of protesters flock to the New South Wales city of Newcastle for an annual climate protest – and standoff with police – as a flotilla of kayaks and sailboats head out to block the world’s largest coal port.
Hundreds of people set up camp at Foreshore Park on Friday in preparation for the Rising Tide people’s blockade on Newcastle Harbour. The crowd was expected to swell to 7,000 over the weekend as protesters arrived from across the country for what organisers said had become a national gathering for Australians frustrated by a lack of government urgency to address the climate crisis.

Blokiranje signala imunoloških stanica smanjuje stvaranje ožiljnog tkiva u ranama
U novom istraživanju američki znanstvenici otkrili su prethodno nepoznatu populaciju cirkulirajućih imunoloških stanica koje igraju ključnu ulogu u fibrozi, nakupljanju ožiljnog tkiva koje može dovesti do zatajenja organa i unakaženja. Smatra se, da rezultati ove studije doprinose razumijevanju procesa zacjeljivanja i mogli bi dovesti do novih strategija za sprječavanje ili liječenje fibroze.

Mijeloidna mimikrija identificirana kao pokretač otpornosti na imunoterapiju kod medulanog karcinoma bubrega
Američki znanstvenici otkrili su da stanice medularnog karcinoma bubrega koriste adaptivni mehanizam nazvan mijeloidna mimikrija kako bi se sakrile od imunološkog sustava i potaknule hiperprogresiju bolesti nakon imunoterapije, ističući specifične ciljeve koji prevladavaju otpornost na liječenje u predkliničkim modelima.

Dugotrajno ograničenje kalorija može usporiti stanične markere starenja mozga
Kako mozak stari, stanice u središnjem živčanom sustavu doživljavaju metaboličku disfunkciju i povećana oksidativna oštećenja. Ovi stanični problemi smanjuju sposobnost održavanja mijelinske ovojnice (zaštitnog omotača oko živčanih vlakana), što dovodi do degradacije bijele tvari povezane sa starenjem.
