Solar and wind together produced about 25% of Poland's electricity in 2025, up from 11% in 2021, according to Our World in Data's analysis of Ember data. Growth stalled slightly in 2025 because weak winds reduced wind output, and solar gains were barely enough to offset that drop. Coal still generates about 50% of the country's power, making its mix one of the most coal-heavy in Europe. The country has committed to cutting coal, and the pace of that shift will determine how quickly its emissions fall.

Hampi is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Karnataka, India, with more than 1,600 surviving remains spread over 4,100 hectares. It was the capital of the Vijayanagara Empire from 1336 to 1565. Travellers from Persia and Portugal described it as a prosperous, wealthy and grand city with temples, markets and farms along the Tungabhadra River. By 1500 it was estimated to be the world's second-largest city after Beijing, and probably India's richest at the time. In 1565 a coalition of Muslim sultanates defeated the Vijayanagara Empire, its capital was conquered and destroyed, and the city was left in ruins. Hampi remains a religious centre, with the active Virupaksha Temple at its heart.
