I have never seen climate carnage on the scale of the floods here in Pakistan.

As our planet continues to warm, all countries will increasingly suffer losses and damage from climate beyond their capacity to adapt.

This is a global crisis. It demands a global response.

Sen sijaan että Suomen lehdistö jatkaa pääministerimme vapaa-ajan loputonta analysointia, toivoisin että se uutisoisi oikeasti tärkeistä aiheista, #ilmastonmuutos nyt yhtenä mainitakseni.

The difference between 1.5°C & 3°C global warming means vastly different scenarios for our future.

The risk of wildfires, frequency of disasters & more hinge on these few degrees.

Limiting temperature rise is still possible if we #ActNow. https://t.co/X0ShwftNUV via @unfccc

The odds of at least one of the next 5 years temporarily reaching the #ParisAgreement threshold of 1.5°C have increased to 50:50.

In 2015 the chance was zero.

The latest @IPCC_CH report states very clearly: "#Climatechange is a threat to human well-being and the health of the planet. Any further delay in concerted global action will miss a brief and rapidly closing window to secure a liveable future." https://t.co/1F3CPb0ttW

@UNWomenSuomi Kylläpä monet näistä tämän tviitin keräämistä viesteistä demonstroivatkin erinomaisesti sitä kuinka tarpeeseen se tulisi, että pelialalla olisi enemmän naisia.

UN is calling for reform of $540bn farming subsidies that damage people’s health, fuels the #climatecrisis, destroys nature and drives inequality by excluding smallholder farmers, many of whom are women

Despite the benefits they provide, strategies that use natural solutions to counter the effects of climate change are not widely used due to a variety of barriers.

🆕 guidelines will help states take vital adaptation action ⬇️

Despite air pollution's detrimental impacts on people's #health, #climate, biodiversity and ecosystems, more global aid goes to fossil fuel projects than tackling dirty air – this needs to change
