WWF's global team working to tackle the #ClimateCrisis 🌍

[WWF Climate and Energy @climateWWF]

.@WWF @manupulgarvidal: Overshooting 1.5°C is not a reason to give up. It’s a reason to move faster.

At #COP31, leaders must cut emissions faster, move away from #FossilFuels and deliver #ClimateFinance.

Delay is a choice. So is action.

☀️ Solar PV is one of our most powerful conservation tools. Done right, solar provides renewable, reliable, and increasingly affordable energy anywhere the sun reaches. This has incredible potential to power our work, particularly at remote ranger stations and field camps.

So, today, 🐼 WWF, 🐘 Universal Ranger Support Alliance and the 🦁 International Ranger Federation launched the ‼️ Solar for Ranger Stations Guidebook, a free resource ‼️ for any project manager looking to ⚡️power conservation work⚡️with solar. This non-technical starter kit tackles everything from basic terminology and energy demand assessments to contracts, funding mechanisms, and monitoring strategies.

If we switched to #renewableenergy, the number of ships crossing the ocean would fall by 40% because they're just carrying coal & oil & gas!! https://t.co/wPsBnoWEwP

We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

Can someone please explain how humanity is supposed to adapt to this?

Climate change is making these severe events more severe and more frequent. No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

We can no longer avoid exceeding #1.5°C. But every fraction of a degree, and every year above it, matters.

The message is not to give up. It’s to fight harder.
Cut emissions. Scale renewables. Phase out fossil fuels. Protect nature.

At #COP31, delay cannot be an option.

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

Repeat after me. A habitable planet is more important than the profits of a few fossil fuel companies.

Pass it on.

#ICYMI: The global #energytransition has entered a new phase👇
➡️Renewables remains the foundation of the transition.
➡️Electrification connects renewable power to end-use sectors.
➡️Energy efficiency delivers more with less.
➡️Grids, storage and flexibility make the system work.
Energy security, affordability, competitiveness and resilience are at the centre of the global energy agenda. Read more: https://t.co/B8Lyty40Kr

Climate actions are moving fast. Science must keep up.

Govts are meeting this week to decide whether key @IPCC_CH reports can be delivered by 2028, in time to guide the next phase of #ClimateAction.

Decisions must not outpace the evidence.

[WWF Climate and Energy @climateWWF]

The Pacific's message ahead of #COP31 is clear: defend #OClimateScience, accelerate the #EnergyTransition, strengthen resilience, and minimise the #overshoot beyond 1.5°C.
There was also growing support for making COP31 a #BlueCOP, recognising the critical role of oceans in #ClimateAction.

[WWF Climate and Energy @climateWWF]

COP31 won’t be judged by what countries promise.
It will be judged by what they deliver.

From #ClimateWeekNYC to #PreCOP in Fiji, the conversation is shifting from ambition to implementation.

What could make the difference between a breakthrough @turkiyecop31 and another missed opportunity?

🌍🌡️ We are dangerously close to crossing the 1.5 °C threshold.
🐼🌱 @WWF: Overshoot is not a reason to give up – it is a trigger to act faster.
⚠️📈 Every fraction of a degree matters. We must cut emissions, not ambition, and keep any breach as small and short as possible.

Global warming is set to cross 1.5°C, pushing climate risks and impacts to increasingly dangerous heights, a new UNEP report warns.  

Predicted impacts include extreme weather and threats to human health and economies.  

Action now can still limit the magnitude and duration of the peak and preserve the possibility of returning to or below 1.5°C through an ‘overshoot, peak, and decline’ pathway

Record-breaking ocean temperatures are another ocean climate alarm bell 🚨🌊

Global average sea surface temperatures have just hit a new record high. A hotter ocean means stronger marine heatwaves, more pressure on coral reefs, rising seas and growing risks for people and nature.

With #COP31 on the horizon, leaders must put #OceanAction at the centre of climate action.

[Copernicus ECMWF @CopernicusECMWF]

The daily global average sea surface temperature has reached its highest level on record. On 22 August 2026, data from the #CopernicusClimate showed 21.1°C, exceeding the previous record set in March 2024.

[UNDRR @UNDRR]

The evidence shows that 2025 was a year of climate extremes.⚠️

The @ametsoc @NOAA State of the Climate in 2025 reports:
⛈️ intense Atlantic hurricanes
🌊 rising global ocean heat
🧊 lowest Arctic sea ice
🌡️ Europe's warmest year since 1900.

Wow. 🔥🔥🔥🚒🚒🚒Frightening wildfires are rampaging through Spain and France...and the danger is not yet past. This is how #ClimateChange is tangible and real. We must phase out fossil fuels at speed or expect to deal with more events like these wildfires.
