#ACRC2019 was a fantastic conference - so many great conversations! @acrc2019

Exploring #Ethiopia has been equally excellent. Although having poured water out of my walking boots, it's apparent that the wet season in northern Ethiopia is extending into October this year!

We need to reach the people on the ground with accurate,timely and tailored climate information-the farmers, the fishermen, the pastoralist; not just the people in this conference hall @acrc2019. That’s how we can build climate resilient communities. #ClimateActionNow

A cross section of participants; academia,media,community project officers explore how to co-opt the #IPCC report into national development agenda for needed #ClimateAction. #MeltingIce is due to rising temperatures nd the sea is claiming land

It's 10 times more efficient to halt land degradation, than to let it degrade and then restore it afterwards - Dr Tony Knowles, @IPCC_CH Lead Author shares the findings from the Special Report on Climate Change and Land. #ACRC2019
