By 2030, the renewable energy sector will triple. Women are more likely to make climate conscious decisions yet are often ignored despite facing the frontlines of these issues. #COP28

Today at #COP28, the theme is ‘Finance / Trade / Gender Equality / Accountability.’

According to the COP28 presidency (@COP28_UAE) the goal for this themed day is to create a tangible plan on action that can be taken on climate finance to close the climate finance gap.

12 hours, 6+ miles, and 3 coffees later, our COP day has ended. We typically find each other throughout the day for lunch, coffee, or just a morale boost. COP28 is an amazing learning experience and a great place to encourage our peers!
