There were 20 “billion-dollar” weather and climate disasters tracked by the U.S. government last year — a collection of calamities that cost the nation an estimated $145 billion and killed nearly 700 people. https://t.co/XWyKZIImSq

70% of all national climate pledges submitted to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change are incompatible with the Paris Agreement's most 1.5°C ambitious goal

[Vincent Welsch @VincentWelsch]

So stellte etwa die Umweltorganisation FEU-US (@ClimateTogether) 2019 in einem Gutachten fest, dass 70% aller von den Vertragsstaaten der UN-Klimarahmenkonvention eingereichten nationalen Klimaschutzpläne nicht mit der 1,5°C-Ambition des Klimaabkommens von Paris vereinbar sind.

COP25 Climate change talks: 'We’ve lost an important opportunity’ https://t.co/Gpjvgyil1b

[Bloomberg Originals @bbgoriginals]

After 2 weeks of discussions at #COP25, delegates from 200 nations only agreed on the “urgent need” for deeper cuts to greenhouse gases, watering down promises made years ago

Five things we've learned from Madrid talks:
#1 - Leadership is REALLY important

Solving #climatechange requires leadership.
It also requires the collective effort of all of us: https://t.co/YXjfVTfqoZ

Indeed @GretaThunberg. Solving #climatechange "will not come from governments or corporations". It will come from people.

Solving #climatechange will require leadership from individuals and smarter choices: https://t.co/YXjfVTfqoZ

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

“Well I am telling you there is hope. I have seen it.
But it does not come from governments or corporations.
It comes from the people.”

Here’s a small part from my speech today at the #cop25 in Madrid.

Pope Francis to #COP25: “The current commitments made by States to mitigate and adapt to climate change are far from those actually needed to achieve the goals set by the #ParisAgreement”.

The Pope is asking leaders for "honesty, responsibility and courage" on #ClimateChange

The more we delay #ClimateAction, the greater the price we pay in the form of devastating impacts to communities & our common home.

Climate change is now making seasonal rains more intense and less predictable: @nytclimate
More frequent and intense impacts of #ClimateChange like this one will continue to happen as long as decisive global action to reduce emissions continues to be postponed #EmissionsGap

[NYT Climate @nytclimate]

Climate change is now messing with the monsoon, making seasonal rains more intense and less predictable. Worse, decades of short-sighted government policies are leaving millions of Indians defenseless in the age of climate disruptions–especially the poor.

Never believe that you're too small to make a difference.
This farmer planted one tree every day for 37 years and transformed a chopped down barren land in Majuli Island, India to a wildlife paradise.

We have the solutions, implement them.

Are individual choices enough to combat the climate crisis? @KHayhoe says "YES - we need it all."

[Christiane Amanpour @amanpour]

Are individual choices enough to combat the climate crisis? Atmospheric scientist and climate expert @KHayhoe says "there's a false debate between do we need individual action... or do we need system-wide change? My answer to that is YES - we need it all."
