Nick and Aaron Carter, during an interview on July 11, 2006 in California
MUSIC – The American pop and hip-hop singer Aaron Carterwho rose to fame at the turn of the millennium with his album “Aaron’s Party (Come Get It)”died Saturday at the age of 34, reported the specialized media TMZ.
According TMZAaron Carter, who was the younger brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carterwas found dead in his bathtub at his residence in Lancaster, California.
A police spokesman contacted by AFP said a deceased person was discovered at the singer’s home on Saturday morning, but declined to confirm the identity of that person. Aaron Carter’s agent did not immediately respond to requests from AFP.
Born on December 7, 1987 in Tampa, Florida, Carter began his musical career at the age of 7. He was 9 years old when he released his first album, “Crush on You”in 1997. Released in September 2000, “Aaron’s Party (Come Get It)” sold three million copies in the United States and immediately propelled it to teen and tween darling status.
Aaron Carter had toured with The Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears, making the first parts of their concerts. In 2001, his album “Oh Aaron”in which he sings a duet with his brother Mick, had won a platinum disc.
Although her popularity had faded somewhat with age, Carter continued to appear regularly on TV shows and post new songs online. But his turbulent private life, including money squabbles among his siblings of five, had made him the prey of the tabloids, and in 2011 he began a rehab.
In 2013, riddled with debts, in particular tax debts, he declared himself bankrupt. He had also been in a lot of trouble with the authorities, mostly for possession of narcotics and dangerous driving.
Earlier this year, he told the DailyMail that he aspired to no longer be considered a “wreck”. “I am not what some people try to portray”he pleaded. “If anyone wants to call me a train wreck, then I’m a train that’s had many accidents and derailed for many reasons”.

The Athletic and ESPN have got their hands on a document that details the conditions for the return to competition of Kyrie Irving. Suspended for at least five matches by his executives for his sharing of anti-Semitic content and his reluctance to apologize and distance himself from the radical version of the “Black Hebrew Israelites” theory, the Nets point guard will only return to the roster when he will bring satisfaction to its leaders on “a series of measures, objective and corrective, which respond to the harmful impact of his behavior “.
In fact, it is a specification with six very specific conditions, some of which have already been met since the announcement of its suspension.
1/ Apologize for posting a link to the film on October 27, condemn the harmful and false content, and clarify that he has no anti-Jewish beliefs.
2/ Go through with the measures Irving, the Nets and the Anti-Defamation League agreed to in their Nov. 2 joint statement, including a $500,000 donation to working causes and organizations to the eradication of hatred and intolerance in communities.
3/ Complete the awareness training created by the Nets.
4/ Take training against anti-Semitism and hate speech designed by the Nets.
5/ Meet representatives of the Anti-Defamation League, as well as leaders of the Jewish community of Brooklyn.
6/ After having followed steps 1 to 5, Irving will have to meet the owner Joe Tsai and the main managers of the franchise to prove to them that he has learned the lessons of this affair, that he has become aware of the seriousness of the damage caused by this situation and reassure them that this type of behavior will not happen again.
As GM Sean Marks explained on Friday, management gives him time to do so. “It depends on him. Once again, his actions will speak louder than his words, and if he wants to get involved, we’ll see where that takes us. »
Because according to ESPN, the communication between the leaders of Brooklyn and Kyrie Irving is indirect since the outbreak of the case. Everything goes through his agent and mother-in-law, Shetellia Riley Irving, while the leader has never responded to messages from Joe Tsai, the club owner.
Note that the Nets and the Anti-Defamation League also wrote to Jeff Bezos and Amazon executives to delete the documentary, or at least add explanations of its problematic theses.

But not to deliver the same message. The current White House tenant and his Democratic predecessor urged voters to “vote” to protect the “democracy”.

“Democracy is literally on the ballot.

Barack Obama, who is full of nostalgia, was first in Pittsburgh, an industrial city in Pennsylvania, where he asked the “cousin Pookie” and to “Uncle Joe”the affectionate nickname of demobilized voters, buried in their sofas, to get up and “to go and vote!” Tuesday for Democrats.
In the evening, still in Pennsylvania, in the town of Latrobe, ex-president Trump (2017-2021), red cap “Make America Great again” pressed on his head and hiding his gaze, called for a very long time to “put an end to the destruction of the country”.

World diplomacy is once again meeting at the bedside of the climate. COP27 opens on Sunday, November 6, in Sharm-El-Sheikh, Egypt, to accelerate the fight against greenhouse gas emissions, responsible for global warming. For two weeks, the States will first try to agree on the issues of solidarity.
“Rebuilding trust between North and South”, through the issue of financing, is thus at the top of the agenda of the Secretary General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres, who calls for a “historic pact”. In a geopolitical context disrupted by the war in Ukraine, the promises of financing for developing countries and the materialization of the principle of “loss and damage” will be at the heart of the negotiations. Franceinfo details the key points of this COP27.
Staying the course despite the war in Ukraine
The world of COP27 is very different from that of COP26, organized in 2021 in Glasgow. Since then, Russia has invaded Ukraine, causing a diplomatic and energy crisis. “This is a crucial moment. Climate and energy issues are at the heart of geopolitics today”analyzes Sébastien Treyer, Director General of the Institute for Sustainable Development and International Relations (IDDRI).
Many countries, which depended on Russia for gas or oil, must review their supply and make choices. At the risk of going back on their climate commitments? “The first key issue is to reconcile what we are doing vis-à-vis Russia with our climate commitments on which we will not compromise”we explain at the Elysée, where we are assured that the war has “strengthened the determination to get out of fossil fuels”.
Prioritizing Africa
Hosted in Egypt, these negotiations must give priority to the situation in Africa. This is the meaning of the column published by Emmanuel Macron, the Senegalese President, Macky Sall, and the Dutch Prime Minister, Mark Rutte, on the site of the British dailyThe Guardian. Heads of State have made it a priority to“radically accelerate adaptation to climate change in Africa and in vulnerable countries around the world” for this COP27. Because this continent is the “more vulnerable to this global crisis”say the leaders, who deplore a loss of 15% of GDP each year because of the “destructive consequences of climate change”.
Especially since, for Sébastien Treyer, the new geopolitical deal places African countries in a position of strength. First, because Westerners are looking for new allies on the international scene against Russia. Also, because these countries have the resources that Europeans need for their energy transition. “Mineral resources for electrification”specifies Sébastien Treyer, but also fossil resources.
Strengthen the commitments of the States
They are still not up to par. Since the signing of the Paris agreement, the States, which set their own objectives, are called upon each year to raise their ambition to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Since COP26, the efforts made by countries represent only 1% of emissions in 2030, lamented the UN in a report in October 2022. As it stands, these commitments are leading the planet towards a warming of 2.4 to 2. .6 degrees by the end of the century, according to UN Environment estimates. Far from the 2 degrees (even 1.5 degrees) set as the limit in the Paris agreement.
“This means our planet is at risk of reaching a threshold that will make climate chaos irreversible and cause a catastrophic rise in temperature forever,” warned Antonio Guterres, the UN Secretary General.
Advance on “loss and damage”
The “loss and damage” will be one of the burning issues of this COP27. This expression designates “the consequences that we cannot avoid, even if we do everything to reduce global warming and adapt to it”, explains Fanny Petitbon, advocacy manager for Care France. Concretely, it is the damage already caused by extreme events, such as the recent floods in Pakistan or the heat wave that hit Europe during the summer, and by more progressive phenomena such as the rise in sea level.
Added to this physical criterion is a political dimension: the least developed countries are the most affected by these “loss and damage” while they are the least prepared to face it and the least responsible for global warming. “This damage is caused by the increase in greenhouse gas emissions, for which the countries of the North are mainly responsible”, recalls Sidra Adil, researcher at the Collective for Social Science Research in Karachi (Pakistan). North America, Europe and Australia have been responsible for 63% of CO2 emissions, the main greenhouse gas, since the start of the industrial revolution, compared to 3% for the African continent or 0.28 % for Pakistan, according to platform data Our World in Data.
It is on the basis of this observation that the most exposed countries, in particular the small island states, are asking for the establishment of a compensation mechanism separate from the funds that already exist for adaptation or the reduction of emissions. Without success for the moment in the face of the reluctance of the countries of the North. “The question of funding has always been a big taboo. The big polluting countries do not want to be sent to court if they admit some responsibility”contextualizes Inès Bakhtaoui, researcher at the Stockholm Environmental Institute.
Things have changed in recent years. In 2021, at the COP in Glasgow, the countries of the North succeeded in transforming the proposal to create a mechanism into a new round of dialogue on the issue. But Scotland, soon followed by Wallonia and Denmark, had become the first country to pledge financial aid for loss and damage. In Sharm-el-Sheikh, the subject could be placed on the official agenda, voted on at the opening of the summit. A first that gives hope for concrete progress for the defenders of the subject. France said to itself “opened” on this issue, while specifying that the creation of a “new financial facility” was not the answer “more efficient”.
Reach 100 billion per year for the countries of the South
The promise dates back to 2009 (during COP15 in Copenhagen) and has still not been implemented. The countries said “developed” pledged to pay 100 billion dollars a year to the so-called countries in “development” by 2020. This “Green background” must finance projects to fight against global warming and adaptation. “For 3, 4 years we have been capping at 80 billion per yearlaments Sébastien Treyer. We must start to increase again in this mobilization of public and private financing from the North to the South.”
Additional commitments could be announced during this COP27, in particular thanks to the mobilization of Canadian and German diplomats. But Sébastien Treyer remains “doubtful” on the possibility of reaching 100 billion. “Some European G7 countries have made significant efforts in their official development assistance, but in contrast, the United States is a low contributor in relation to its GDP”, he details. On the eve of the American mid-term elections, Joe Biden could notably see his ambitions for the climate hampered by the Republican opposition.

World diplomacy is once again meeting at the bedside of the climate. COP27 opens on Sunday, November 6, in Sharm-El-Sheikh, Egypt, to accelerate the fight against greenhouse gas emissions, responsible for global warming. For two weeks, the States will first try to agree on the issues of solidarity.
“Rebuilding trust between North and South”, through the issue of financing, is thus at the top of the agenda of the Secretary General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres, who calls for a “historic pact”. In a geopolitical context disrupted by the war in Ukraine, the promises of financing for developing countries and the materialization of the principle of “loss and damage” will be at the heart of the negotiations. Franceinfo details the key points of this COP27.
Staying the course despite the war in Ukraine
The world of COP27 is very different from that of COP26, organized in 2021 in Glasgow. Since then, Russia has invaded Ukraine, causing a diplomatic and energy crisis. “This is a crucial moment. Climate and energy issues are at the heart of geopolitics today”analyzes Sébastien Treyer, Director General of the Institute for Sustainable Development and International Relations (IDDRI).
Many countries, which depended on Russia for gas or oil, must review their supply and make choices. At the risk of going back on their climate commitments? “The first key issue is to reconcile what we are doing vis-à-vis Russia with our climate commitments on which we will not compromise”we explain at the Elysée, where we are assured that the war has “strengthened the determination to get out of fossil fuels”.
Prioritizing Africa
Hosted in Egypt, these negotiations must give priority to the situation in Africa. This is the meaning of the column published by Emmanuel Macron, the Senegalese President, Macky Sall, and the Dutch Prime Minister, Mark Rutte, on the site of the British dailyThe Guardian. Heads of State have made it a priority to“radically accelerate adaptation to climate change in Africa and in vulnerable countries around the world” for this COP27. Because this continent is the “more vulnerable to this global crisis”say the leaders, who deplore a loss of 15% of GDP each year because of the “destructive consequences of climate change”.
Especially since, for Sébastien Treyer, the new geopolitical deal places African countries in a position of strength. First, because Westerners are looking for new allies on the international scene against Russia. Also, because these countries have the resources that Europeans need for their energy transition. “Mineral resources for electrification”specifies Sébastien Treyer, but also fossil resources.
Strengthen the commitments of the States
They are still not up to par. Since the signing of the Paris agreement, the States, which set their own objectives, are called upon each year to raise their ambition to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Since COP26, the efforts made by countries represent only 1% of emissions in 2030, lamented the UN in a report in October 2022. As it stands, these commitments are leading the planet towards a warming of 2.4 to 2. .6 degrees by the end of the century, according to UN Environment estimates. Far from the 2 degrees (even 1.5 degrees) set as the limit in the Paris agreement.
“This means our planet is at risk of reaching a threshold that will make climate chaos irreversible and cause a catastrophic rise in temperature forever,” warned Antonio Guterres, the UN Secretary General.
Advance on “loss and damage”
The “loss and damage” will be one of the burning issues of this COP27. This expression designates “the consequences that we cannot avoid, even if we do everything to reduce global warming and adapt to it”, explains Fanny Petitbon, advocacy manager for Care France. Concretely, it is the damage already caused by extreme events, such as the recent floods in Pakistan or the heat wave that hit Europe during the summer, and by more progressive phenomena such as the rise in sea level.
Added to this physical criterion is a political dimension: the least developed countries are the most affected by these “loss and damage” while they are the least prepared to face it and the least responsible for global warming. “This damage is caused by the increase in greenhouse gas emissions, for which the countries of the North are mainly responsible”, recalls Sidra Adil, researcher at the Collective for Social Science Research in Karachi (Pakistan). North America, Europe and Australia have been responsible for 63% of CO2 emissions, the main greenhouse gas, since the start of the industrial revolution, compared to 3% for the African continent or 0.28 % for Pakistan, according to platform data Our World in Data.
It is on the basis of this observation that the most exposed countries, in particular the small island states, are asking for the establishment of a compensation mechanism separate from the funds that already exist for adaptation or the reduction of emissions. Without success for the moment in the face of the reluctance of the countries of the North. “The question of funding has always been a big taboo. The big polluting countries do not want to be sent to court if they admit some responsibility”contextualizes Inès Bakhtaoui, researcher at the Stockholm Environmental Institute.
Things have changed in recent years. In 2021, at the COP in Glasgow, the countries of the North succeeded in transforming the proposal to create a mechanism into a new round of dialogue on the issue. But Scotland, soon followed by Wallonia and Denmark, had become the first country to pledge financial aid for loss and damage. In Sharm-el-Sheikh, the subject could be placed on the official agenda, voted on at the opening of the summit. A first that gives hope for concrete progress for the defenders of the subject. France said to itself “opened” on this issue, while specifying that the creation of a “new financial facility” was not the answer “more efficient”.
Reach 100 billion per year for the countries of the South
The promise dates back to 2009 (during COP15 in Copenhagen) and has still not been implemented. The countries said “developed” pledged to pay 100 billion dollars a year to the so-called countries in “development” by 2020. This “Green background” must finance projects to fight against global warming and adaptation. “For 3, 4 years we have been capping at 80 billion per yearlaments Sébastien Treyer.

Bruno Le Maire has the proof in figures: “There were no profiteers from inflation in the food industry”. “Neither the farmers nor the distributors, nor the agri-food industry took excessive remuneration in the process”, assures the Minister of the Economy in an interview granted to the Parisianon the evening of Saturday 5 November.
Whereas the food inflation rate approached 12% over one year in October according to INSEE, The Minister had asked the General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF) to carry out a study. And “the conclusion is without appeal”, so, according to him.According to the report seen by AFP, “All in all, the rise in food prices is the result of a combination of several factors: war in Ukraine, post-Covid recovery, global warming, animal health crisis and various factors of an economic nature (competitiveness of the economy, shortage of labor -of work…)”.
How did the IGF proceed? She selected a sample of twelve everyday food products (chicken cutlet, plain yoghurt, baguette, etc.) and studied the evolution over time of the gross margin of the various actors in the production chain. The analysis reveals on the one hand “that the food industry has squeezed its margins” and on the other hand that “supermarkets have not contributed to raising consumer prices for food products”thus disproving the hypothesis of inflation suffered only by the final consumer.
Despite this sharing of the effort, and lower inflation in France than in other European countries, the IGF points out that in one year, “Certain food products have experienced particularly high price increases with, for example, +60% for oils, +22% for flour, +20% for pasta and +16% for poultry.”
At the end of June, the president of the strategic committee of E.Leclerc stores, Michel-Edouard Leclerc, had deplored that “half of the requested increases” by manufacturers in the context of renegotiations on the price of foodstuffs intended to be sold by supermarkets were not “not transparent” and were “suspicious”. A Senate report released on July 19, however, concluded that with the exception of a few “special cases” it was not observed “widespread phenomenon of excessive increases”.
A few days later, a report by the deputies Aurélie Trouvou (La France insoumise) and Xavier Albertini (Horizons) had not made it possible to detect either “systemic abusive behavior on the part of manufacturers or distributors”.

AC Milan took advantage of Atalanta’s defeat against leaders Naples (2-1) to steal second place from the Bergamasques by beating La Spezia (2-1) thanks to the Blues Théo Hernandez and Olivier Giroud, on the evening of this Saturday, November 5.
Two gems from Hernandez (21st) and Giroud (89th) allow the Rossoneri to stay six lengths behind Napoli and take a two-point lead over the “Dea” (3rd).
Giroud, entered for the last twenty minutes, received a red card in the wake of his magnificent scissor recovery from the left: he was logically warned a second time for having removed his jersey in the euphoria of his goal, having forgotten that he had already received another yellow card a few minutes earlier.
Olivier Giroud celebrated his goal by removing his shirt.
Except that already warned, he received a second yellow card synonymous with a red card. ?\ud83d\ude2d pic.twitter.com/Por07LtIKx
In the first period, Hernandez had concretized the good start of Milan with a goal from the center forward (control of the chest and strike in first intention) at the limit of offside (21st). A goal to reassure everyone because the defender had called on the healers at the start of the match for an alert in the right thigh, two weeks before the World Cup-2022.
Milan, dominating but too intermittent, wasted a number of opportunities to take cover and hit the uprights twice (Krunic 16th, Leao 45th+3).
Giroud’s golazo
La Spezia, without complex despite its 17th place, almost took advantage of it before the break, but M’Bala Nzola was clumsy (43rd, 45th + 4).
It was finally a child of Milan, Daniel Maldini, on loan from the Rossoneri, who rebalanced the debates with a beautiful shot wrapped close to the post, under the dark gaze of his father Paolo, leader of the Rossoneri (59th).
Sandro Tonali then thought to restore the advantage to Milan, but his magnificent goal was disallowed after the VAR reported a prior foul by Fikayo Tomori.
To get out of the trap, as often, it was necessary to wait for Giroud’s time, launched in the 72nd minute and author of his third goal of the week at San Siro, after Wednesday’s double against Salzburg (4-0) in the League champions.
Another decisive goal, a few days before the announcement by Didier Deschamps of his list of Blues for Qatar.

We could continue this list for a long time: the “Warming Stripes”or “global warming bands” in French, have spread everywhere since their creation in 2018 by British climatologist Ed Hawkins, 45. “I never imagined I would ever go to London Fashion Week or take part in a shoot for a football shirt. It’s not on the list of normal activities for a climatologist”, he euphemizes. On the occasion of COP27, which is being held from November 6 to 18 in Sharm El-Sheikh (Egypt), franceinfo tells you the story of these wildly successful bands.
At the beginning are a baby and a crochet “addict”. Ellie Highwood, a fellow Ed Hawkins scientist, prepares a blanket as a baby shower gift for a colleague’s daughter. She decides to draw inspiration from a very common practice among “crocheters”: making one row per day and using the temperature or the color of the sky at the time to choose the color. “I was wondering what the global temperature series would look like on a blanket. And since global warming is often explained by comparing greenhouse gases to a blanket, I found it interesting to make the connection”she explained at the time on his blog. A few months earlier, another scientist, the American Joan Sheldon, had a similar idea.

This is where Ed Hawkins comes in. The scientist from the University of Reading (United Kingdom), co-author of the last two IPCC reports, has long been interested in the best way to represent global warming. “I created visualizations that I thought were brilliant, but no one liked”, he jokes. Her “Climate Spiral” thus never went beyond specialized circles. A year after seeing his colleague’s cover, he resumed the principle by simplifying the color code. In blue, the years colder than the average temperature between 1971 and 2000. In red, the warmer years. The result clearly shows the warming observed in recent years as a result of human activities (consumption of oil, coal and gas, deforestation). The success is immediate: in one week, the Warming Stripes are downloaded a million times on the site set up for the occasion.
How to explain such a success? Ed Hawkins attributes it to the beauty of these strips and their simplicity (they are stripped of axes and numbers), which make them understandable “for people who didn’t like math or science at school”. Scientist Mélissa Gomis, who worked on the graphics for the latest IPCC report as a member of the technical group, hails a very successful visual communication exercise. “They contain scientific data, but it’s almost more of a work of art. The goal is not to communicate the concept of temperature anomaly used here, it is to give the feeling of climate change”details this specialist in graphic visualizations.
“It’s universal: the graph can be understood by a Nobel Prize in physics as well as by people far removed from science.”

Simple to understand, the strips are also easily available, at all scales (world, country, city) and on any type of medium. Ed Hawkins even came up with a version where different climate futures are emerging based on our choices and decisions.Her colleague Valérie Masson-Delmotte does not only use them in her presentations to the government or in schools. She often wears them as a scarf, a gift from Hawkins at COP26 in Glasgow in 2021. “When I take the RER, people call out to me about this scarf, say to me ‘hey, it’s the climate barcode’, without knowing me”testifies the co-president of group 1 of the IPCC. “It’s quite rare for a scientific object to enter popular culture.”

It is enough to push the doors of the stadium of Reading FC, the professional football team of the city where Ed Hawkins works, to be convinced of this reality. The bands of the evolution of the local temperature are declined on the sleeves of the jerseys for the 2022-2023 season of this club playing in the English second division. The idea germinated during a videoconference with the university. “I saw the stripes behind him. I thought it was a painting, but he explained to me what they represented”recalls Tim Kilpatrick, Commercial Director of Reading FC.
It is he who proposes to display them on the shirt. “With the university, we wanted this message to reach a new audience, in this case our supporters”, continues the commercial director. This choice is the most visible part of a series of decisions to reduce the club’s environmental footprint: photovoltaic panels, “climate” score for the different menus served at the stadium, recycled polyester jerseys…

Fashion designer Lucy Tammam discovered the Warming Stripes thanks to a friend. The 39-year-old entrepreneur, who claims a “sustainable” and ecological approach, immediately wanted to make dresses. “My first goal is to make beautiful, eco-friendly clothes. I also really like the idea of using fashion as a pathway to activism and education”, she confides by e-mail. The bands are available today on dresses, scarves, scarves and coats. “Most of the reactions are positive, with people delighted to have discovered ‘Stripes’ in this way”says the designer.

Positive reactions, what next? The concrete benefits of Warming Stripes remain difficult to assess. “Millions of people have seen them and used them. Whether it has caused any change is very hard to say,” summarizes Ed Hawkins. Rather, he sees his graph as a new instrument in “the toolbox” to communicate and “start a conversation” on global warming. The British scientist tells how an American, who had covered his electric car with the bandswas able to trigger debates on the subject at motor shows. “I think it’s much more effective than receiving a lesson on the subject. People are intrigued and ask questions”assures the climatologist.
“It’s a way to talk about the climate in different social circles. That’s generally what the climate community needs to do: inspire that conversation in other circles.”

To promote wide dissemination, the warming tapes are licensed free. “People can use it and we can’t say no”, summarizes Ed Hawkins. Assure him that he has no negative examples in mind, but the risk of greenwashing, that is to say their use by actors who are not very respectful of the environment to green their image, is there. For example, we can note that the Reading football club has not given up on renewing its range of shirts each season, a practice that encourages its supporters to consume. Larry Fink, the all-powerful boss of the BlackRock asset management group, who wore a scarf in the colors of Warming Stripes in 2020, announced in May the end of its short-lived support for pro-climate shareholders, as told The world.
Despite this blind spot, the approach has given biodiversity advocates ideas. Miles Richardson, professor of psychology at the University of Derby (United Kingdom), developed this summer of the “Biodiversity Stripes” to account for the collapse of populations of mammals, birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles. “They range from the green of nature to gray, to represent the loss of color as species disappear. The world becomes grayer, more urban”, details the person concerned. The data come from the Living Planet Index of the NGO WWF.
Inspired by @ed_hawkins climate stripes I’ve made some biodiversity stripes using @LPI_Science data to show how the average drop of 68% in the population of mammals, birds, fish, amphibians & reptiles since 1970 is a journey from green to grey: pic.twitter.com/dPmeyN7Qjn
The scientist embarked on this visualization because he regrets that biodiversity is “the poor relation of global warming, which is treated much more in the media”. Miles Richardson hopes his graphic will enjoy the same success as the Warming Stripes from Ed Hawkins: “Both are environmental crises that ultimately threaten human existence.”

Simple to understand, the strips are also easily available, at all scales (world, country, city) and on any type of medium. Ed Hawkins even came up with a version where different climate futures are emerging based on our choices and decisions.Her colleague Valérie Masson-Delmotte does not only use them in her presentations to the government or in schools. She often wears them as a scarf, a gift from Hawkins at COP26 in Glasgow in 2021. “When I take the RER, people call out to me about this scarf, say to me ‘hey, it’s the climate barcode’, without knowing me”testifies the co-president of group 1 of the IPCC. “It’s quite rare for a scientific object to enter popular culture.”

It is enough to push the doors of the stadium of Reading FC, the professional football team of the city where Ed Hawkins works, to be convinced of this reality. The bands of the evolution of the local temperature are declined on the sleeves of the jerseys for the 2022-2023 season of this club playing in the English second division. The idea germinated during a videoconference with the university. “I saw the stripes behind him. I thought it was a painting, but he explained to me what they represented”recalls Tim Kilpatrick, Commercial Director of Reading FC.
It is he who proposes to display them on the shirt. “With the university, we wanted this message to reach a new audience, in this case our supporters”, continues the commercial director. This choice is the most visible part of a series of decisions to reduce the club’s environmental footprint: photovoltaic panels, “climate” score for the different menus served at the stadium, recycled polyester jerseys…

Fashion designer Lucy Tammam discovered the Warming Stripes thanks to a friend. The 39-year-old entrepreneur, who claims a “sustainable” and ecological approach, immediately wanted to make dresses. “My first goal is to make beautiful, eco-friendly clothes. I also really like the idea of using fashion as a pathway to activism and education”, she confides by e-mail. The bands are available today on dresses, scarves, scarves and coats. “Most of the reactions are positive, with people delighted to have discovered ‘Stripes’ in this way”says the designer.

Positive reactions, what next? The concrete benefits of Warming Stripes remain difficult to assess. “Millions of people have seen them and used them. Whether it has caused any change is very hard to say,” summarizes Ed Hawkins. Rather, he sees his graph as a new instrument in “the toolbox” to communicate and “start a conversation” on global warming. The British scientist tells how an American, who had covered his electric car with the bandswas able to trigger debates on the subject at motor shows. “I think it’s much more effective than receiving a lesson on the subject. People are intrigued and ask questions”assures the climatologist.
“It’s a way to talk about the climate in different social circles. That’s generally what the climate community needs to do: inspire that conversation in other circles.”

To promote wide dissemination, the warming tapes are licensed free. “People can use it and we can’t say no”, summarizes Ed Hawkins. Assure him that he has no negative examples in mind, but the risk of greenwashing, that is to say their use by actors who are not very respectful of the environment to green their image, is there. For example, we can note that the Reading football club has not given up on renewing its range of shirts each season, a practice that encourages its supporters to consume. Larry Fink, the all-powerful boss of the BlackRock asset management group, who wore a scarf in the colors of Warming Stripes in 2020, announced in May the end of its short-lived support for pro-climate shareholders, as told The world.
Despite this blind spot, the approach has given biodiversity advocates ideas. Miles Richardson, professor of psychology at the University of Derby (United Kingdom), developed this summer of the “Biodiversity Stripes” to account for the collapse of populations of mammals, birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles. “They range from the green of nature to gray, to represent the loss of color as species disappear. The world becomes grayer, more urban”, details the person concerned. The data come from the Living Planet Index of the NGO WWF.
Inspired by @ed_hawkins climate stripes I’ve made some biodiversity stripes using @LPI_Science data to show how the average drop of 68% in the population of mammals, birds, fish, amphibians & reptiles since 1970 is a journey from green to grey: pic.twitter.com/dPmeyN7Qjn
The scientist embarked on this visualization because he regrets that biodiversity is “the poor relation of global warming, which is treated much more in the media”. Miles Richardson hopes his graphic will enjoy the same success as the Warming Stripes from Ed Hawkins: “Both are environmental crises that ultimately threaten human existence.”

The start of the 12th edition of the Route du Rhum on Wednesday 9 November is “preferred option”, announced this Saturday on franceinfo the director of the race Francis Le Goff. Originally scheduled for Sunday, the start of the competition was postponed due to difficult weather conditions, a first in the history of the single-handed transatlantic race.
“We won’t leave on Monday, not on Tuesday either”assures Francis Le Goff. “The first window that comes to us is probably Wednesday.” The race director and his teams still have to meet this Saturday evening to specify the start time. “We are going to take all the files because there is everyone at sea who is working, with the scallop shell at the moment in the bay of Saint-Brieuc and a large flotilla of 100 shellfish which is returning to Saint-Malo. .”
The LR mayor of Saint-Malo, from where the 138 Ultim will leave, also announced on franceinfo that the village of the Route du Rhum will still be dismantled on Sunday evening “as expected”. The shuttles will also stop while school transport is due to resume on Monday for the start of the school year. “It will be sad, but we will welcome all visitors who come to meet the skippers until the date of their departure”assures Gilles Lurton.
