I’ve been on the island of Caye Caulker for a month now, and I couldn’t help but notice the CC impacts it had. It compelled me to do a layman CC impact assessment (anecdotal-based) in my free time to understand the challenges faced from the perspective of the the residents. 🧵
El Niño is being supersized before our eyes.
The science is clear: Sea surface temperatures are rising, temperatures keep climbing & the world is in the danger zone of extreme weather.
The race now is between rising risks & our commitment to take #ClimateAction & protect people.
We must win that race.
Global warming is set to cross 1.5°C, pushing climate risks and impacts to increasingly dangerous heights, a new UNEP report warns.
Predicted impacts include extreme weather and threats to human health and economies.
Action now can still limit the magnitude and duration of the peak and preserve the possibility of returning to or below 1.5°C through an ‘overshoot, peak, and decline’ pathway

My big Sunflower finally opened. The best thing about Farming/Gardening is seeing the beauty that is produced from your hard work and patience. #ProudPlantDad#Farmer
SABOTAGING someone’s PROFESSIONAL CAREER so that it becomes IMPOSSIBLE for them to receive a JOB in their actual field of work because you wanted to CONTROL the NARRATIVE is DIABOLICAL.

4 years ago, I was included in my 1st National document; Belize's 1st BUR to the UNFCCC.
I developed an MRV system (at the time) and authored the Mitigation Chapter (Not credited). I am forever grateful to be a part of Climate Change history for Belize. https://t.co/teb8Y3G9Rw
Understanding GHG emissions is the basis for effective climate change mitigation measures. Even though SIDS in the Caribbean barely contribute to global GHGs, being able to estimate GHGs is a useful skill to have, as we move towards a Net Zero future. #GHGITraining#Grateful 🙏🏽
