🆕 Just launched!
A @_CLEANaction report from WWF and partners shows how we can roll out renewable energy while also taking nature into account ⚡🌍
See the key findings here: https://t.co/rT1ZQS3KUv
#ClimateChange shocks increased in 2022. Ocean heat and sea level rise at record levels. Antarctic sea ice hit a new low. Extreme glacier melt in Europe. #StateOfClimate report highlights the huge socio-economic cost of droughts, floods, and heatwaves.🔗https://t.co/yipNQtrK12
⚠️ The @WMO#StateofClimate report confirms our climate is rapidly descending into uncharted territory.
The clear message is that near-term climate action is critical. As a first step, leaders must agree a plan this year to phase-out fossil fuels, says WWF's @manupulgarvidal
Oil+Gas majors are making grotesque profits from the current #EnergyCrisis. These must be taxed by govts + used to tackle the #ClimateCrisis + support the most vulnerable, who most impacted by both crisis, says @antonioguterres https://t.co/Lxg7hxYyPs
.@sciencetargets has launched the world's first #NetZeroStandard!
Companies now have a robust framework to enable strong, science-based #ClimateAction and help them do their part to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C.

Burning wood for energy will harm climate for decades, even centuries - 500+ scientists say.
That's true even if it's replacing fossil fuels!
This is why they're urging EU & world leaders to end subsidies for forest biomass NOW:

Alla fordon som tillhör staten i 🇺🇸 (ca 650 000 st) ska bytas ut mot elfordon. Får vi samma beslut i EU-länderna? Elbils-racet i full gång! Viktigt att vi parallellt arbetar med elektrifieringens olika hållbarhetsutmaningar. #klimat#elektrifiering#hållbaratransporter
New EU Commission report shows EU #bioenergy policies are accelerating climate change & harming biodiversity.
Just like scientists & campaigners have been saying for years.
The EU must tighten #biomass rules NOW before more damage is done.

WWF & @BCG släpper nytt ramverk för att stödja #företag att skapa effektiva #klimat-strategier som även skyddar naturen. Ramverket klargör i vilken ordning åtgärder ska ske för att bidra så effektivt som möjligt till globala klimatomställningen. #swgreen https://t.co/v5Rl95bh9k
The #EUGreenDeal is supposedly for climate AND nature.
Yet EU looks set to ignore #nature in recovery fund rules.
Council & Commission - don't throw biodiversity under the bus!
Endorse @Europarl_EN call for 40% spending on climate AND biodiversity for a true #greenrecovery!
Now banks, investors and insurance companies can also step up and show their ambition towards a #NetZero economy by setting validated science-based targets.
LAUNCHED TODAY:
Our target validation service for financial institutions is now available. Banks, investors and insurance companies are invited to submit #ScienceBasedTargets for approval.

There's less than a week until the launch of our financial institutions framework for #ScienceBasedTargets!
Join our launch launch event to learn more, with speakers including Mark Carney and Gonzalo Muñoz.

.@Stortinget is today finalising discussions on how to bail out its oil sector. @Arbeiderpartiet + @Hoyre now hold keys to oil tax regime. Giveaways to sustain the oil companies for a decade are on the table. We need #GreenRecovery not a #FossilFuel future https://t.co/F0AMUfOzCs
The #renewables industry - like almost all others - has been disrupted by #COVID19, as @IEA's new report shows.
Governments must back the energy transition in their #climate and recovery plans to make sure the renewables sector doesn't just recover, but accelerates. ☀️⚡🙌
