Air pollution is now more deadly than war, smoking and TB. It kills 7 million people every yr.

We have solutions to keep our communities safe and deal with the #climatecrisis. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

Three crises. One opportunity.

Climate change, pollution and biodiversity loss are deeply connected. Addressing them together can unlock more effective and lasting solutions.

🔥 #ExtremeHeat threatens the livelihoods of 1.23B people.

Agricultural yield losses can triple when heat combines with other hazards such as drought & are projected to get much worse as the world warms.

[Food and Agriculture Organization @FAO]

🔥 ~15% of fisheries have already been impacted by incidents of #ExtremeHeat.

Marine heatwaves will cause fish to decline and shift to new areas four times faster than long-term warming.

Weather transcends national borders. So must cooperation & investment needed to protect lives & livelihoods.

See how @WMO Commons, @UN_SOFF & CREWS Initiative strengthen weather, climate & water services through distinct, mutually reinforcing mandates.

🚨By 2050 of 75% of the world's people will face drought.🚨

But we have solutions:
- halting desertification
- building drought resilience
- restoring lands

We must protect nature – so that nature can protect us.

The beauty of aboveground biodiversity wouldn't be possible without the hidden heroes of belowground biodiversity! #SoilBiodiversity

🍄🦠From fungi to bacteria, the soil is teeming with life that keeps our planet healthy and thriving!

❌ Disasters don't have to devastate.
💡They are not a 'natural' part of life.
Natural hazards such as earthquakes and tsunamis may be impossible to stop, but the loss of life and economic damage they inflict is NOT inevitable.

[Extreme Temperatures Around The World @extremetemps]

Records are falling every day in AUSTRALIA.
Last monthly records today were:
36.7C Ngayawili
28.5C Lord Howe Island
Also Tmin 28.2C at Rainbow Beach,Queensland, short POR but the highest on record for any month.
Exceptional heat is unfolding in the NW from Dec 30th to 2nd Jan.

[UNDRR @UNDRR]

🌏101 countries report having multi-hazard early warning systems in place — 2x the 2015 count.
But coverage is still low in countries most vulnerable to disasters.
🎇Let's make a new year's resolution for 2024: real progress towards #EarlyWarningsForAll

Our climate situation?

[NOAA Climate.gov @NOAAClimate]

“It’s not the heat, it’s the humidity.” Climate models project that combinations of heat and humidity could reach deadly thresholds for anyone spending several hours outdoors by the end of the 21st century. https://t.co/XPoXIJIW9B

[IPCC @IPCC_CH]

Current policies make it likely that #globalwarming will exceed 1.5°C during the 21st century & make it harder to limit warming below 2°C.

#IPCC's Synthesis Report underscores the urgency of taking more ambitious action. 👉 https://t.co/zAMzd12TGF
