Climate Institute

World's first organization focused solely on #climatechange. Catalyzing climate solutions since 1986. RTs and likes do not necessarily indicate endorsement.

#IPCC Synthesis Report

#Climatechange is a threat to human well-being & planetary health.

There is a rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a liveable & sustainable future for all.

The solution lies in climate resilient development.

Report by @WorldBank emphasizes the #social and #economic impacts of climate change in Brazil.

➡️"climate change poses a major threat to long-term development objectives, especially poverty reduction."
➡️Extreme weather events in Brazil cause losses of $2.6 billion a year.

Healthy soil is the bridge between #air 🌬️ and water 💧 that keeps our planet in balance! 🌍

Let's make sure we're keeping this essential interface healthy for the benefit of the #Environment! #SoilHealth #SaveSoil

The #IPCC Synthesis Report says we need urgent #climateaction to secure a liveable future for all.

To keep warming to 1.5°C requires deep, rapid and sustained #greenhousegasemissions reductions in all sectors.

Key statistics related to #globalwarming from the #IPCC's Synthesis Report

#IPCC’s Synthesis Report is out: https://t.co/uwQ8k8VSDw

Estimated global #greenhousegasemissions in 2030, make it likely that #globalwarming will exceed 1.5°C during the 21st century and make it harder to limit warming below 2°C.

#IPCC’s Synthesis Report is out: https://t.co/uwQ8k8VSDw

The schema below illustrates the projected changes in annual maximum temperature, soil moisture, and precipitation at #GlobalWarming levels of 1.5°C, 2°C, 3°C, and 4°C.

The report published by @IPCC_CH underscores the need for change in the coming decade:

🖊️ chart a clear roadmap towards 2030 goals, like emission reduction
🖊️ align global finance flows with our climate goals
🖊️ launch an accountability revolution

"Continued greenhouse gas emissions will lead to increasing global warming, reaching 1.5°C in the near term. Every increment of global warming will intensify multiple and concurrent hazards"

Some environmental impacts of #agriculture:

Agriculture requires large amounts of fresh water, causing environmental pressures in regions with #waterstress.
It is responsible for one-quarter of the world’s #greenhouse gas #emissions.

The #Willow oil project debate comes down to this key climate change question.

The United States promised to reach net-zero carbon emissions but is still extracting oil.

"Is 1.5°C still realistic?" Is the wrong question. The question is "Is 1.5°C necessary?". The answer from science is increasingly a clear YES. The world must therefore never give up on doing all it can to hold this physical limit https://t.co/7pbOVqEev9

Rural people make up close to half of the world’s population 🌍

We cannot achieve the #GlobalGoals without them.

NASA Climate Change data shows February's global average atmospheric #CO2 increased by 50% since 1750 due to human activities - meaning the amount of CO2 is now 150% of its value in 1750
