NEW REPORT – The AI climate hoax A new report on AI greenwashing, analysing the rhetoric and evidence behind the idea big tech will solve climate change

Don’t be fooled by big tech. There appears to be little evidence AI will save the human race from their own climate catastrophe ketanjoshi.co/2026/02/17/b...

What if…“good design" (and corresponding awards) are no longer just about aesthetics.

What if…we update old principles, we changed our common perspective:

from aesthetics → effect
from object → system
from market → shared environment

Let’s get going. ✌️

In the top-right corner, an “EU Top 5” list shows total medals: Italy 30, Germany 26, France 23, Netherlands 20, and Sweden 18.

„There should be no special category called 'sustainable design'. It might be simpler to assume designers will try to reshape their values & work, so that all design is based on humility, combines objective aspects of climate and the eco use of materials with subjective intuitive processes. —Papanek

The direction is obvious no matter what Politicians paid by the fossil fuel industry claim.

Tech skills are powerful.

When we apply them without asking who benefits and what it costs, we still make a choice.

I chose to work with organisations building products and services for a sustainable and regenerative future.
Not as a sacrifice -but as a way to stay in tech and sleep well at night.

How online search and AI can install malware I asked Google how I could clear disk space on macOS, and it couldn’t have been more helpful. But what I was told to do downloaded malware to my Mac. How come?

Die unterschätzte Revolution Wir schenken negativen Meldungen mehr Aufmerksamkeit als positiven. Für einen hoffnungsvollen Start ins neue Jahr hier sieben Fakten, die Zuversicht geben.

The coming AI security crisis (and what to do about it) | Sander Schulhoff AI guardrails don't work. Security researcher Sander Schulhoff on prompt injection, red teaming, why AI defenses fail, and what actually secures AI products.

Aktuelle KI-Sicherheitstools wie Guardrails lassen sich von Angreifern umgehen. Dass bisher wenig passiert ist, liegt nicht an guten Schutzmaßnahmen, sondern daran, dass KI noch nicht breit genug im Einsatz ist. Bei KI-Robotern wird es dann sogar physisch 🥶

Quaschning erklärt: Weltretter Deutschland Wir haben das Erneuerbare-Energien-Gesetz erfunden und weltweit der Photovoltaik zum Durchbruch verholfen. Warum haben wir die Technologie an China abgegeben?

„Wir haben in Deutschland, in einem Land, in dem vergleichsweise wenig Sonne scheint, die Photovoltaik groß gemacht.

(Und es dann China überlassen weiterzumachen.) 🫣

Indien als neues Solarmekka Die erneuerbaren Energien wachsen rasant, aber noch nicht schnell genug. Zwei neue Berichte zeigen, wie stark sich der Schwerpunkt nach Asien verschoben hat.

Apropos China:

„Laut den IEA-Daten hat China zwischen 2019 und 2024 etwa 40 Prozent des globalen Erneuerbaren-Zubaus geleistet, und es wird erwartet, dass das Land bis 2030 fast 60 Prozent der weltweit neu installierten erneuerbaren Kapazitäten liefern wird

So GranolaAI reflects on my year:

"You made pixels feel guilty about their carbon footprint and successfully argued that a digital product isn't truly finished until it stops melting the ice caps."

Sounds like mission accomplished.

‘Fossil fuel giants finally in the crosshairs’: Cop30 avoids total failure with last-ditch deal It took some oblique wording, but Saudi Arabia made a last-minute decision to sign deal that marks departure for Cop

Baby steps:
„The world took another small step towards the phaseout of fossil fuels – a faltering, inadequate step, and one that will barely interrupt the climate’s steady march towards catastrophe. But a significant departure from total inaction nonetheless.
www.theguardian.com/environment/...

„AI is not here to augment us, much less to replace us. Its most valuable role lies elsewhere: making the invisible visible. The invisible structures and correlations of the world. But also the invisible within ourselves.

-Marie Dollé on Substack

Quick reminder to not blindly trust you AI:

It was a very good election for the climate In the first election of President Trump's second term, voters make it abundantly clear that they still care about climate action.

Improving public transit is a climate solution! 🚎 Free buses “is not as sexy as something like solar. But these are the exact type of policies we’re going to need to actually address climate change, because it addresses people’s standards of living.” - Dan Jasper https://bit.ly/4nBOpoN

The worst month of climate news in my entire career YouTube video by Simon Clark

Brand new video by Simon Clark about the last month of terrible climate news:

🤭 Functional but not special.

In this case: A holiday flat apparently filled with all the old furniture the owners didn’t seem to need anymore at their place.

A standard holiday apartment made me realise: We’ve been trained to expect Instagram-worthy instead of functional.

#Airbnb started as sharing spare rooms, now it’s competing with boutique hotels. When did meeting basic needs become insufficient? Platform mission creep is real.
