As the world prepares to gather in Belém, Brazil, for Cop30, we appeal to all heads of state and government representatives attending: let this be the moment when the world finally unites around a plan to transition away from fossil fuels within the next two decades.

As the world prepares to gather in Belém, Brazil, for Cop30, we appeal to all heads of state and government representatives attending: let this be the moment when the world finally unites around a plan to transition away from fossil fuels within the next two decades.

The science is unambiguous, and the consequences are visible everywhere: devastating floods, heatwaves, fires and droughts are erasing decades of progress in development and social justice.

Even if AI does help, don't get your hopes up about making the state more productive

The UK government employs more than 6 million people. Paying them will cost about £300bn this year. The total cost of providing public services - the NHS, prisons, the police, schools, the army, and so on - is more than double that. As taxes rise (again), voters might reasonably ask whether their money is being spent efficiently. To get a grip on that question, we need to measure what the government gets in return for all that spending, which means we need to measure what those 6 million public workers are producing. This is harder than it might sound.
