🚧 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 Nordic governments are already leading the charge in decarbonising industries like steel and cement, but the next big step is ensuring public infrastructure drives the demand for low-carbon materials. By embedding green criteria in procurement, the public sector can create the market needed to scale industrial decarbonisation across Europe. This approach makes decarbonisation more cost-effective and paves the way for an EU-wide green transition, setting a powerful example for other regions. So, how can we ensure this momentum spreads across the continent? 👉 Find out how public procurement is key to scaling the low-carbon industry: https://lnkd.in/d_rKNE4z With strong backing from the Nordic Council of Ministers Secretariat, this call to action aims to inspire public sector leaders to take the next step in driving the green industrial transition across Europe. 🌍 #GreenTransition #SustainableInfrastructure #IndustrialDecarbonisation #EUClimatePolicy #ClimateAction #PublicProcurement #illuminemVoices 🌐 News: https://illuminem.com/ 📊 Data: https://lnkd.in/eHe8axSA

In his new piece, Kasper Benjamin Reimer Bjørkskov explains how we didn’t evolve for a world of supermarkets, smartphones, and on-demand everything, so our brains keep chasing, even when we already have plenty. The twist? Wanting isn’t the enemy. It’s the direction of our wanting that shapes our wellbeing, our culture, and even our ecological footprint. Kasper Benjamin Reimer Bjørkskov shares the insight that changed his own family’s life, inspired by philosopher Kate Soper, and shows how we can learn to want differently, not by sacrifice, but by discovering better forms of pleasure. 👉 Here is the full reflection on desire, contentment, and why “enough” is a cultural choice: https://lnkd.in/dnq5pGxT #SustainableLiving #BehaviourChange #Wellbeing #EthicalGovernance #illuminemVoices 🌐 News: https://illuminem.com/ 📊 Data: https://lnkd.in/eHe8axSA

With China, Brazil, and India paving their own paths, the traditional Western climate-development models are being put to the test. In this article, Arvea Marieni (安薇薇) explores how EU leaders could be caught between holding onto rigid climate standards and adapting to the bold, new approaches emerging from the Global South. Will the EU lead, or risk being left behind? 🌍 The stage is set for a new era of climate diplomacy and Belém is where it could all unfold. 👉 Dive into the full analysis: https://lnkd.in/dVUJXAiX #ClimateDiplomacy #COP30 #GlobalSouth #EU #ClimateAction #Sustainability #illuminemVoices 🌐 News: https://illuminem.com/ 📊 Data: https://lnkd.in/eHe8axSA

The Tropical Forest Forever Facility - TFFF has launched at COP30 Brazil. It's the largest endeavor targeting forest conversation and restoration in decades. Can it deliver on its promises? And can it overcome the paradoxes that hampered #REDD+ so far? My take: It could indeed solve a few of the paradoxes - but other serious questions remain.

Between 2015 and 2025, the planet will have lost millions of hectares of forest, with devastating consequences for biodiversity, water cycles, local economies, and global carbon stability. This new visualisation reveals the reality: 🌳 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐥 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝟐.𝟗 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐬, an area comparable to the entire size of Rwanda 🌳 𝐀𝐧𝐠𝐨𝐥𝐚, 𝐓𝐚𝐧𝐳𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚, 𝐌𝐲𝐚𝐧𝐦𝐚𝐫, 𝐃𝐑𝐂, 𝐌𝐨𝐳𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐚 follow closely, each facing massive pressures from agricultural expansion, mining, and land-use change 🌳 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐮, 𝐁𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐚, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐲 also appear among the top countries facing critical levels of deforestation — a reminder that forest loss is not confined to one continent or political system Across regions, the drivers vary, but the outcome is the same: irreplaceable natural ecosystems are disappearing faster than they can regenerate. As leaders gather at COP30, the question is whether we can restore governance, finance, and accountability fast enough to reverse the trend. 💡 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐦 𝐕𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬: 📌 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐨𝐭 - Kasper Benjamin Reimer Bjørkskov 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dmAyQZTB 📌 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐞, 𝐜𝐨-𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐝𝐚, 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐏𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐂𝐎𝐏𝟑𝟎 - illuminem 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dGJHupuY 📌 𝐔𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐡𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐦𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 - Gokul Shekar 🔗 https://lnkd.in/d_Vm9GzV #NaturePositive #Deforestation #Biodiversity #Sustainability #ClimateAction #illuminemVoices 🌐 News: https://illuminem.com/ 📊 Data: https://lnkd.in/eHe8axSA
