The United Nations passed the first declaration on sea level rise to protect island nations’ sovereignty
Since the start of his second term, President Trump has set global climate cooperation back by yanking the United States from the Paris climate agreement, attacking a global agreement on a carbon tax for cargo ships, and threatening countries with tariffs if they get too vocal about climate.
This week brought a notable exception. World leaders at the United Nations General Assembly on Thursday approved a unanimous resolution on how to handle sea level rise, and the U.S. did not block it from moving forward.
The passage of the accord represents a rare win for multilateralism, made all the more notable by the fact that the agreement includes references to climate change and climate aid for developing countries.
Why is this good news? For many low-lying countries, the implications of this agreement could be profound. Some island nations face almost total inundation over the next century as rising temperatures melt the world’s ice sheets and glaciers, and under the agreement, those states will continue to exist as political actors even if their landmass disappears.
EV sales in Turkey have skyrocketed over the last three years
Since 2022, the share of electric models among new car sales has increased from 1 in 100 to 1 in 5.
In 2023, the Turkish government introduced tax relief for electric cars, making registration significantly lower compared to petrol and diesel cars.
This coincided with the launch of Turkey’s first domestic electric car manufacturer, Togg, which has since become the market leader. Imports of cheaper electric car models also made the market more cost-competitive.
