"Because we forget very quickly, because it is not on the political agenda, and because this kind of massive gathering works." For Adélaïde Charlier, a figure of the Belgian climate movement, the answer boils down to three reasons: "Because we forget very quickly, because it is not on the political agenda, and because this kind of massive gathering works." #Climat #Environnement #Manifestation (translated)

After a summer in 2026 marked by heatwaves, intense drought, and wildfires in Belgium, thousands of demonstrators marched in Brussels to highlight the climate emergency, stressing that mobilization is still crucial despite a deep-seated scientific awareness. #Climat #Environnement #Manifestation (translated)

SaxX stated that a cyberattack targeting Danfoss regulatory systems affected around 500 supermarkets in France during the night of October 11 to 12, including Intermarché, Netto, Coopérative U, Market, Monoprix, and Leclerc stores. According to him, the attackers forced the defrosting of equipment, with instructions reaching up to 50 °C. Two stores in Alsace alone reportedly recorded losses of 270,000 euros. Relying on information from a cyber official of a major brand, SaxX indicated that the vulnerability concerned three types of equipment and had been known since July, without clients being informed. Only one of the three types had a patch, which needed to be installed manually by refrigerant technicians, store by store. He added that the connected refrigerators used 3G cards installed by technicians, outside of the network and control of the brand's IT teams. The equipment would have been shut down, and the stores would have switched to manual mode, with a return to operation expected within the day, while the application of the patch would take longer. According to SaxX's analysis, the targeted versions were earlier than version 4. He reminded that Danfoss had fixed an authentication bypass vulnerability in version R4.2 related to passwords generated from the date and time. If these elements were confirmed, he estimated, it would not be a “zero-day” vulnerability, but rather a delay in updating. He also noted that Shodan still listed more than 3,700 Danfoss interfaces accessible from the Internet in August. SaxX said that France seemed to be the only country affected for the moment. He mentioned possible explanations such as the size of the French Danfoss park, a common provider or access channel, or deliberate targeting, while clarifying that nothing was established. He finally reported that his contact feared that other organizations might be more affected, particularly those whose activities relied mainly on frozen products. SaxX also indicated that he intervened at midday on TF1’s newscast to talk about the attack and possible motivations of the state group or hackers. #cyberattaque #sécuritéinformatique #France (translated)

Specifically, the new preferential reservation area identified by the Walloon administration extends over approximately 85 kilometers between the regional border, near the Avelgem post, and the electrical post of Courcelles. It is close to large existing infrastructures (roads, railways, Brussels-Charleroi canal) as well as economic centers where energy needs are significant, specified regional minister-president Adrien Dolimont during a press conference dedicated to the budget. #BoucleDuHainaut #GouvernementWallon #Environnement (translated)

A survey reveals that about one in eight French people, and one in four young people, suffer from food shortages, prompting the search for economic solutions such as gleaning, solidarity grocery stores, and local baskets to eat at a lower cost. #Alimentation #Solidarité #Économie (translated)

According to a report by Action Against Hunger, 13% of French people, or about 7 million adults, report lacking food, with an alarming proportion of 25% among 18-24 year-olds, prompting the NGO to call for the legal recognition of the right to food. #DroitÀLAlimentation #PrécaritéAlimentaire #ActionContreLaFaim (translated)

GeoTales described a scenario where several agricultural regions would be simultaneously affected, while dam production would decrease, trade routes would be disrupted, and populations would experience exceptional heat. It specified that the term "super El Niño" referred to an episode of about +2 °C or more in the Niño 3.4 area, without constituting a universal category comparable to that of cyclones. According to GeoTales, the bulletin published on October 8 by the World Meteorological Organization forecasted an average anomaly of about +3.7 °C in this area for the period from October to December, with a peak around December. It also reported that NOAA assessed the probability of reaching at least +2.5 °C over three months at 83% according to its RONI index, mentioning an episode likely to exceed those observed since 1950. It emphasized that the two agencies used different methods, but their figures indicated an exceptionally intense event. GeoTales explained that observations showed increased heat beneath the surface of the Pacific, a deeper thermocline, as well as anomalies in westerly winds and precipitation in the central and eastern parts of the ocean. It reminded that El Niño is a natural phenomenon and estimated that it would be too simplistic to attribute this episode solely to climate change, while adding that background warming could exacerbate its consequences. To illustrate the possible impacts, GeoTales mentioned Guatemala, citing a video published the day before by LIMIT Media. It wrote that in the "dry corridor" that also crosses Honduras and El Salvador, the lack of rain and crop losses were already undermining the food and income of families relying on maize and bean cultivation. #ElNiño #ChangementClimatique #Météo (translated)

Jon De Lorraine stated that a cyberattack targeted the refrigerated facilities of several French brands, including Intermarché, Leclerc, and Super U. According to his message, the hackers exploited control systems from the manufacturer Danfoss and hijacked the defrost function, causing continuous operation and set temperatures reaching 50 °C. He indicated that around 150 Intermarché stores would be affected and that stock of fresh and frozen products would have been destroyed. In Haguenau, in Alsace, two supermarkets reportedly suffered losses of 270,000 euros, he wrote, adding that the national toll could reach several million euros. He cited BFM and Je Bosse en Grande Distribution as sources and specified that the assessments were still provisional. #Cyberattaque #SécuritéInformatique #Supermarchés (translated)

🧭 40 ans après la Charte d’Ottawa, Theresa Tam soutient qu’il ne faut pas remplacer les principes de la promotion de la santé, mais les appliquer aux crises actuelles. 📒 La promotion de la santé à l’ère des bouleversements : appliquer des principes durables dans un monde qui change ✍️ Theresa Tam, Agence de la santé publique du Canada, Ottawa Health promotion in an era of disruption: applying enduring principles in a changing world Capsules Audio de Pratiques en Santé 🎙️🎥 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVxNrN_JZ9U Analyse de Pratiques en Santé et lien vers la source ℹ️➕ https://www.pratiquesensante.com/blog/pratiques-15/la-promotion-de-la-sante-a-l-ere-des-bouleversements-appliquer-des-principes-durables-dans-un-monde-qui-change-6252 📌 Pour les acteurs de la promotion de la santé, cet éditorial permet de relire les principes de la Charte d'Ottawa au regard des bouleversements récents décrits par l'autrice : COVID-19, urgences climatiques, crise des drogues toxiques, évolutions démographiques, transformation numérique, défiance et désinformation (p. 1). Il apporte des arguments pour défendre trois idées : investir dans le bien-être renforce aussi la résilience face aux crises (p. 1-2) ; la promotion de la santé gagne à sortir des silos et à s'associer à la gestion des urgences, aux soins, à l'éducation et aux politiques sociales, environnementales, économiques et numériques (p. 2, p. 3-4) ; les espaces numériques, en particulier ceux des enfants et des jeunes, font désormais partie des milieux de vie à prendre en compte (p. 3). Il invite enfin à choisir des mots qui parlent aux décideurs et aux communautés, comme bien-être, résilience communautaire, confiance ou cohésion sociale, sans renoncer au fond de la démarche (p. 3). 🇬🇧: Health promotion in an era of disruption: applying enduring principles in a changing world - https://www.pratiquesensante.com/en/blog/practices-15/health-promotion-in-an-era-of-disruption-applying-enduring-principles-in-a-changing-world-6252 #️⃣ #pratiquesensante #PromotionDeLaSanté #ChartedOttawa #BienÊtre #Résilience #ÉquitéEnSanté #SantéNumérique #Intersectorialité

Errr.... right, so UK is having to find more money for defence against Russia... by cutting funding for heat pumps that get us off gas... thereby keeping us dependent on an energy commodity *weaponised* by Russia & international conflict. Smart thinking guys www.theguardian.com/environment/...

This would be economically illiterate & environmentally disastrous - and makes us less secure: undermining efforts to reduce energy bills by reducing dependence on gas, increasing vulnerability to global dictators, driving climate emissions & knee capping a market that’s just beginning to take off
