Blueprints for cooling planet - pale blue dot, not red 🌎

[Oceana @oceana]

Our oceans cover more than 70% of the planet, yet only about 10% of them are currently protected. When we protect our seas, they thrive — and so does our planet.

Urge world leaders to deliver on their commitment to protect 30% of ocean habitat by 2030 today 👉 https://t.co/kw7BfVtXwt

Scientists warn Earth could exceed a key global warming target within a decade.

But there’s hope: a new UNEP brief finds that emerging climate-friendly technologies, which are nearing tipping points, could help cut emissions driving global warming.

7⃣ Days until our first webinar.

🗓️On 10 June, ACES opens its 2026 Webinar Series.

We'll be sharing early implementation evidence, lessons from Kenya, and what it takes to build cold-chain systems that communities can actually own and sustain.

@PlasticsWorld The mono-PP design is the real advance. While the 35% PCR headline aids PPWR compliance, we still need collection infrastructure so mechanical recycling can actually close the loop.

@CarbonBrief @MollyLempriere @GlobalEnergyMon Falling output despite a ten-year build high shows capacity factors are plummeting. We are locking in emissions that accelerate ocean acidification and stress marine ecosystems already under severe pressure. A costly paradox.

[Eco_Engineer Green @GreenLifeMaps]

@7Kiwi It's alarming how often our energy debates omit full lifecycle costs. Renewables present integration challenges, but fossil fuels carry substantial unpriced environmental debts.

Key oil project must count full climate impact

a landmark decision from June 2024 could put future UK oil and gas projects in question

We need to take urgent #ClimateAction!

@ONUMaroc @UNEP My research shows seabed methane releases climbing as waters warm. The short-term forcing here exceeds CO2 significantly. We need monitoring networks deployed now before these feedback loops lock in.

@AbiluTangwa I keep returning to that map. It's alarming how quickly agricultural systems unravel across the Horn. Adaptation must combine innovation with preservation, anchored in stable policy.

[Eco_Engineer Green @GreenLifeMaps]

@UNEP We cannot treat resilience as optional when the science is unambiguous. Adaptation demands systemic planning and sustained investment in protective ecosystems.

[Eco_Engineer Green @GreenLifeMaps]

It's alarming how often the focus lands on isolated CO2 benefits while ocean acidification and seabed methane releases accelerate unchecked. My research shows marine ecosystems face severe and accelerating costs.

[CO2 Coalition @CO2Coalition]

The additional CO2 in the air has provided a much needed catalyst for global plant growth

More than 1 billion Africans walk or cycle every day. Yet many roads remain unsafe for those who use them. 

On #BicycleDay, see how African cities are investing in cycling infrastructure to improve health, ease congestion and cut pollution #NowForClimate: https://t.co/76HkmXRRSl

@FAO Peatland ecosystems store remarkable carbon, yet they are not invincible. Restoring them curbs emissions and fire risk, but policymakers still underfund these projects.

[Eco_Engineer Green @GreenLifeMaps]

@UNEP The resilience of our cities is remarkable, but not invincible. Fifty cities are a welcome start, yet we need an integrated approach pairing green infrastructure with serious adaptation funding.

🗑️ 1/3 of all waste globally is mismanaged
🥦 Food waste makes up 38% of all municipal solid waste
👉 Countries can cap waste even as their economies grow. The tools exist — what's needed is the political will and investment to deploy them: https://t.co/cSTWULdzju

[UN Environment Programme @UNEP]

Clean energy is scaling fast, with renewables leading to new power capacity, creating jobs and making energy more affordable each year.

The transition is already underway.

@MyZeroCarbon WA went from no grid batteries to 1,400MW in three years. We are watching storage move from niche to essential infrastructure while coal stockpiles become battery farms.

Pesticide sales rose 8%, yet the Commission claims a 61% decline. Flawed indicators do not merely mislead; they undermine farmers and our ecosystems.

[PAN Europe @EuropePAN]

Pesticide sales in the EU rose by 8% in 2024 compared to last year, reaching 316.000 tonnes, according to the latest @EU_Eurostat data. The new data refute the Commission’s claim of a 61% reduction in #pesticide use, a figure based on a flawed indicator.
