The implications for children and systems such as water, sanitation, health, education, children depend to reach their full potential, could have dire consequences if we don't act now! Heading to uncharted territories with each fraction of degree increased..
🔵 Every
🟡 fraction
🟠 of a degree
🟤 of global warming
🔴 matters.
The extent to which current and future generations will experience a hotter and different world depends on the choices we make today and in the coming years.

Hoy @MinecOficial #Venezuela se comprometió, mediante la firma de la Declaración sobre Niñez, Juventud y Acción Climática en la #COP28, con el cumplimiento del derecho de cada niño, niña y adolescente a un ambiente sano y su consideración en acciones contra el cambio climático.
BRIEF RELEASE
Our analysis shows that the climate finance landscape for children in LAC is grim. Financing from @theGCF@adaptationfund@theGEF [2006 – 2023] is not reaching children in LAC, especially girls, nor key sectors such as health. @uniceflac

He llegado a #Panamá🇵🇦🇵🇦 para participar de la Semana de la Acción Climática de América Latina y el Caribe y para seguir exigiendo la inclusión de las voces de los niños y niñas en espacios de participación política y creación de políticas para la vida
🌎El cambio climático está forzando a miles de niños y niñas a abandonar sus hogares en América Latina y el Caribe.
Se prevé que sólo las inundaciones desplazarán a 4.6 millones de niños, niñas y adolescentes en los próximos 30 años, según un nuevo análisis de #UNICEF.

The climate crisis is a threat to children’s rights.
I welcome General Comment 26, which provides strong guidance to every country on the #ClimateAction needed to protect the world’s children from the worsening impacts of climate change.

When it comes to climate change and other crises, children are demanding action “precisely because adults haven’t taken the responsibility for it.”

🚨 The UN Committee on Child Rights has published General Comment 26!
This means there is now clear guidance specifying what countries must do to uphold children’s rights to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment.

We are facing a new climate reality for the new generations...and our current financial system, infrastructure and overall social services are not factoring CC risks fast enough while there is limited ambition on the NDCs and GHG reductions #ClimateActionNow
#Globalwarming of 1.1°C has resulted in more frequent & more intense extreme weather events that have caused dangerous impacts on nature & people worldwide.
Every increment of warming results in rapidly escalating hazards.
