There's more energy arriving than leaving Earth due to rising greenhouse gas levels and this is warming #climate & this energy imbalance is growing - a new study led by Herve Douville uses an observed reconstruction to infer this trend will not reverse before the early 2040s: doi.org/10.1029/2025...
The global assessment of climate change indicators is updated to 2025:

In a @uk.theconversation.com blog, focus is on rising energy imbalance as the gap between absorbed sunlight by the planet and infrared heat loss is growing:

Our new Regius Professor is @hancloke.bsky.social which is a top choice and I look forward to the Dr Who regeneration from Keith Shine: www.reading.ac.uk/news/2026/Un...
Research provides evidence that fossil fuel companies’ deployment of renewable energy, biofuels, carbon capture and storage (CCS), green hydrogen & carbon offsetting isn’t designed to oppose decarbonisation, but to manage the conversation around renewables:
