Vandaag presenteerden @EBRD en @GCECANews in Londen een nieuw rapport over de klimaatadaptatie. @MikeBloomberg licht toe waarom ook de private sector in actie moet komen:

But excited to be here. Great leadership of Craig Davies from EBRD. Thanks for being such a valuable partner! #phsysicalclimaterisk

How ironic: extreme weather brought me 4.5hrs too late at joint EBRD GCECA conference on Disclosing physical climate risk & oppportunities.

This is the 1st day of the 2nd term of 3 years of @henkovink as Special Envoy for International Water Affairs for the Kingdom of The Netherlands #watermanagement #floodprotection #rebuildbydesign

[MinIandWEnglish @MinIandWEnglish]

Reinforcement of the iconic Afsluitdijk #closuredam - the design has to meet a flood protection standard of 1:10.000 years and a maximum overtopping of 10 l/s/m - also a #fishpassage #fishladder is included @RWSzakelijk https://t.co/WoN7lBsLXR

"Almost every C40 city is reporting extreme weather events that are off all the scale of previous experience, and ahead of all the modelling of #climatechange," said Mark Watts, executive director of @c40cities

It's a great pleasure to announce that I am representing @GCECANews on the board of @WaterasLeverage, a partnership between GCECA, @henkovink @100ResCities @iabr @ArchWorkroom @AIIB_Official, which aims to develop innovative solutions for the existing #water challenges in #Asia

[Christiaan Wallet @ChrWallet]

Today, I'm proud to be in Brussels to present @GCECANews to a #EuropeanUnion Expert Group on #climateadaptation.

The success of the Centre depends on communities of experts in research, policymaking and on the ground, helping to accelerate climate change adaptation

[Jesse DeMaria-Kinney @J_DeMariaKinney]

Can increased visibility on #climatechange #accountability be leveraged for greater #ClimateAction? @Daniel_Morchain @GeorginaCundil1 @curriealder @_chandnisingh @ChrWallet @SaleemulHuq https://t.co/2NjtxySn7S

[Global Center on Adaptation @GCAdaptation]

The public may be talking more about #climatechange than before but they don't necessarily understand its imminent & severe impact, such as the threat that rising sea levels pose to island nations.

Scientists should speak through human stories & colourful metaphors say @IPCC_CH https://t.co/wYFnypbK2g
