It was - 30 today here in #Rovaniemi. It was amazingly beautiful with the cold feeling, smell of the forest, crispy snow, fresh-cold air and obviously with beautiful colours in the sky! @VisitRovaniemi @OurLapland @thisisFINLAND @thisisrovaniemi @LifeInLapland @DiscoverFinland

No clear end in sight to this #bushfirecrisis. So @ScottMorrisonMP would you mind stepping in and leading the country away from catastrophic climate change? oh wait, that's right you don't care. #ThisIsNotNormal #ThisIsClimateChange #NoNewFossilFuels https://t.co/CPAFJ3QN5T

Very interesting, indeed! Speechless! Don't know how to react! Had the same reaction when Trump became the president!

[Afroja Khanam @afroja_khanam]

A #timemagazine cover image capturing Thunberg as #personoftheyear was released last week. #Trump once had a fake Time magazine cover with his own picture framed and hanging in his office in Trump Tower. Could this be a reason of your anger, PRESIDENT!

“40% global population in coastal regions, 800 million people at risk, trillions of $$$ invested at risk. Coastal risks increase, drive inequality, impoverish communities, cripple biodiversity & economies” @Nate_Matthews_ @grp_resilience at #MarrakechPartnership @COP25CL

“Mangroves & Nature Based Solutions cheaper in investments & operations (CapEx & OpEx). @UN called on finance & insurance world to step up + start invest in #NBS. Price right, understand risks, and with blue funds to invest from source to sea.” @Nate_Matthews_ @grp_resilience
