This chapter discusses the recent revision of the Projects of Common Interest list in the EU, which now includes projects aimed at decarbonization and meeting climate goals. Environmental campaigners express their concerns about the inclusion of hydrogen projects and advocate for alternative solutions.

Microsoft registered an unexpected rebound in growth in its Azure cloud computing platform during the third quarter, environmental campaigners have attacked a critical part of the EU’s plans to green its energy supply, and the UN's secretary-general is denouncing what he calls “clear violations” of international law” in Gaza. Plus, the FT’s Arjun Neil Alim explains why companies are turning to former diplomats for help.
