Norway’s state-owned oil company @Equinor wants to develop Rosebank, the biggest undeveloped field in the UK. It would produce more CO2 than the world’s 28 lowest income countries do in a year. It would fuel the climate crisis & threaten endangered marine species.
The UN and the International Energy Agency have warned that we can have NO NEW oil and gas expansion if we want to make our very narrow window to limit warming to 1.5C – the safest level still possible. The Norwegian and UK government are ignoring climate science and their own climate targets when sanctioning new fossil fuel projects like Rosebank.
A decision on Rosebank could come any day. Now is the time to raise our voices against climate destruction and demand and end to new fossil fuel projects.
Rich countries like Norway and the UK need to take responsibility for their contribution to the climate crisis, not continue to profit from climate-wrecking oil and gas. Governments need to urgently be investing in real solutions to the energy & climate crisis like cheaper renewable energy.
Thousands of people across the UK, Norway and globally are fighting to #StopRosebank and Equinor’s dirty fossil fuel projects. To win, we need everyone. Follow @stopcambo to join the movement and find out how you can take action.

My journey through the Pyrenees was like summitting Mt. Kilimanjaro every day for 8 days. My friends at @corosglobal did a deep dive into my training and activity data, which documents my increase in fitness after my injury, and the stress I took on during my 8-day journey.
On average, I covered 47.2km a day with 19 hours of activity and 4.3 hours of rest. In total, my COROS Training Load reached 6,536. That’s like running a marathon every day with nearly 6,000m of elevation gain, in terms of the stress on my body.

Snow is such an amazing element ( or more correctly the best state of water ) and even if we spend lots amounts of time on it, skiing, running, climbing, playing, etc. we don’t really know much about it. Some years ago I got to know Eric Maréchal and the work he and his team are doing studying the organisms living inside the snow, specially the algae.
Yes, if you have seen in the spring this red marks in the snow, those are algae. (Pictures 2 and 3)
This year Eric gave me some tubes for samples collection. Yet in Himalaya I didn’t find any algae in altitude, but today in my training from home I could take some samples from Norwegian snow for the Alpalga project.

It wouldn’t have been possible without the help of “Wein” Gerard Garreta, Marta Pobleta, Joan Maria Vendrell, Jonatan García, Aina Grau, Mireia Miró, my mother Núria, the wardens of all the mountain huts I passed (Baysellance, Goriz, Pineta, Viadós, Estós, Portillon, Llanos del Hospital, Ventosa, Estany LLong). Also to the photographers David Ariño and Joel Badia. To Joan Solà, Gusi, Jordi and all the other friends who joined us along the way!
Eternal thanks to all of you!

The recovery after Himalaya’s expedition wasn’t straight forward. The broken ribs and a hip injury made my training a bit more low intensity than I would liked, but finally it seems that all those small injuries are gone. Happy today to be racing at the local skyrace @isfjordenskyrace a bit faster than last year, it seems that different training approaches to running fast can get to a similar result 😜
And now time to follow all the friends running at @wser and @marathondumontblanc 💪💪💪

At the end, it is not about what we achieve but what we experience, about feeling coherent with our values when we do something and embracing the possibility of failure as a reward for our soul

Leaving for a tour in the West Ridge of Everest. It was a lot of unknowns. How the route was. How conditions would be.
Two of the things that occupies the mind the last days before a push are what will be the final equipment to carry and what will be the strategy. You want to have sufficient gear but keep it light to be able to progress quickly. And a strategy that keeps you the safest:
Equipment:
– Safety pack ( in case need to get down from difficult places) 5mm 30m rope, 1 ice screw, 1 avalakov hook, 1 safety carabiner, 1 sling. Helmet.
– to keep warm: merino tights, active pants, down pants. @nnormal_official Merino teeshirt, active jacket, 3 down jackets. Buff, hat, airtrim mask. thin gloves, insulated gloves, down mittens. 2 pair of socks ( 1 in case gets wet), boots ( I took a 6000m kind of boot to be more precise) insulated-neoprene overboot.
-progression: crampons, 2 ice axes with slings ( to prevent loosing them, in altitude is easy to do some stupid mistakes)
– night: @moonlightmountaingear 2000 lamp with 2 batteries ( one extra in case)
– Sun: protection 4 cat goggles, 90 suncream, 50 lipstick.
– film and coms: @gopro hero 11 and max. Satellite gps. @corosglobal vertix.
-food and fluid: 20 pieces of food (gels, bars, nuts cream… ) 4L of water with @maurten_official mix.
– Strategy: I started from Basecamp after breakfast ( to ensure having a good “long” night ) and went to camp 2. There rested during the day waiting for the evening. At 17h I started climbing towards the west rib. I wanted to climb that section during the night to avoid being to warm -sweat- and minimize the avalanche and rockfall risk. Then higher up, I wanted to have daylight to get to the Hornbein entry to make easier the route finding. Climbing in the night is great, a bit less danger on hazards and if you keep moving there’s rarely too cold, and then during the day with warm temperatures is easy to take a nap if needed without tent or sleeping bag, saving some weight.
During the push things always change, so it’s important to have some margin and resources ( technical, experience, gear…) for all the possible “ if’s” to stay alive and go down.

“The main factor of glacier melt is still temperature during summer. That is strongly rising with climate change”.
There’s not many people knowing more about glaciers than @huss_matthias . In this conversation we had for the @athleteclimateacademy he explained me the role glaciers have in our lives and how climate change is disrupting it.

“Air pollution is a real trans boundary problem. It’s something we all have to work together on”. In this episode of the @athleteclimateacademy , @jess.k.clark and Huw talk about how air pollution is becoming a big problem for health and threatening the ecosystems of the regions affected, and that’s not only big cities but also many country-side and mountain areas. As an example we often thing the mountain air is pristine but one of the regions with more air pollution in France is indeed the Chamonix valley.

“The deeper bond you form with nature and the world, and all its diversity, instinctually you want to protect it”
Huw talks to adventurer and filmmaker @bransonsam on how we can educate our way through the climate crisis. Sam organises multiple expeditions for people to learn more about themselves and the planet. We can’t care for what we haven’t experienced. So are more experiences key to more education.

“I grew up in the #Pyrenees, and when I was a kid, they had #glaciers, but today, there is almost none.
Every year the glaciers are being reduced by hundreds of meters, and with avalanches and landslides, the #mountains are changing.
Governments must come up with strict #climate policies.
We need to change the model, not just in sports, but we need to change the model of our #economy… of our society.
Earth will survive. Is resilient. Until we understand that it is us that are in danger nothing will change.”
