Two things are clear as we tackle the #ClimateCrisis:
We must rapidly cut emissions.
And we must protect the most vulnerable.
Yet we’re not doing either fast enough.
At #COP28 we presented the latest @UNEP data that underscores the urgency in which we must act ⤵️
Yet @UNEP Emissions Gap Report shows impacts will get far worse as temperatures continue to hit new highs & we fail to cut emissions
The good news? We have solutions to set new records: on GHG cuts, just transitions & climate finance
We must act #COP28 https://t.co/nzabLSAk8d
#headwayforadaptation UK: "Need more grant funding... if investable and people make money from it, funds will flow... UK at COP28 looking at access to climate finance...
The world is boiling and adaptation to climate change is no longer optional. It is time to make headway for adaptation.
Governments and non-state actors must come together to close the adaptation gap.
Thank you @BangladeshUN1 and @DanChurchAid for hosting the event with 🇩🇰.
#HeadwayforAdaptation - having moved from the era of global warming into global heating, scaling up adaptation becomes ever more critical
🇩🇰 🇧🇩 ministerial raising political attention ahead of @COP28_UAE
#HeadwayForAdaptation opening with a clarion call from Bangladesh that financing #Adaptation is enlightened self interest - time to move from lowest common denominator in climate talks - ambition must be based in the science
Brillian discussion on how to operationalize the Global Goal on Adaptation today @COP27. Thanks to our brilliant speakers, left to right in the family photo: @DrJNalau @kristie_ebi @SaleemulHuq @KappelleMaarten @AOlhoff@ChizuruAoki@AlvaroRojasFerr@AlvinChandra83
It will take a significant shift in gears if we are to limit the global warming to 1,5 degrees. New report “Mitigation of Climate Change” from @IPCC_CH is out now. #climatechange#climatereport https://t.co/yaNm520PKU
It is critical that we are able to adapt to the #climate impacts that are already here and growing stronger. But as @UNEP's #AdaptationGap Report shows: this message is yet to be taken on board. #COP26Glasgow#COP26

🌎 Choose ambition.
🌎 Choose solidarity.
🌎 Choose to safeguard our future and save humanity.
UN Secretary-General @antonioguterres at the opening of the World Leaders Summit at #COP26 today.
🚨 New & updated climate commitments fall far short of what is needed to meet the goals of the #ParisAgreement, leaving the world on track for a global temperature rise of at least 2.7°C this century.
We must close the #EmissionsGap

UNEP'S #EmissionsGapReport is out!
The Heat Is On , provides an overview of the difference between where greenhouse emissions are predicted to be in 2030 and where they should be to avert the worst impacts of climate change.
