🧵1/ Excited to announce the publication of my op-ed in the @washingtonpost, where I discuss the importance of shaping a life after coal and the challenges faced by coal-dependent communities during this transition. 🌍🌿 https://t.co/88MZuIlEgK

Africa's #mineral riches are vital to the global #energytransition – but history could repeat itself if they do not benefit local economies.

Stray dogs are a fixture of Turkey’s cities. Butchers ply them with scraps, pensioners offer them water, while others use boxes fitted with blankets to shield them from the winter cold.

But now the dogs seem poised to disappear https://t.co/BsZHcNaAfW 👇

“Living in Turkey has for decades, even centuries, meant navigating the stray dogs,” Kaya Genc writes. “For many people they are inseparable from the idea of Turkey itself.” Read: https://t.co/CcT0ovmp9y

My first sight of the #SpringMeetings.

Every year the @WorldBank and the @IMFNews bring together central bankers, ministers of finance and development, parliamentarians, private sector executives, representatives from civil society organizations and @UN leaders to discuss issues that affect our lives.

I’m here in Washington, DC with @DrTedros and @WHO colleagues to make sure #GlobalHealth is high in the agenda amongst the top finance decision makers globally.

For our world to thrive, we must redouble efforts and leave no one behind — just like this little family of ducks hanging outside the World Bank HQ.

Cancerous, bloody eyes, bursting from their sockets, are the real face of an organic @WholeFoods dairy farm. @AnnieLowrey's piece in @TheAtlantic is among the most important things ever written in animal rights.
