Thanks @sustainUBC! I was fortunate to be a part of the Student Sustainability Council during my time @ubcSPPGA and learn from many great mentors and peers 🤗
Great to hear about @denbymcdonnell from @ubcSPPGA doing great things with @ecotrustcanada and Indigenous communities. Advancing forest carbon offset projects, developing climate policies and mechanisms related to carbon markets, and working with Blockchain👍

If you’re interested integrating #blockchain technology into climate action at the #UN, register for our webinar this Friday 9am Pacific. I’ll be talking about @BlockForClimate’s #BITMO Platform, along w/insights for this space from @KlimaDAO’s carbon-backed cryptocurrency.
Come join us tomorrow to learn how community foundations can help address the climate crisis! I will be speaking about our work @ecotrustcanada on supporting Indigenous-led forest carbon projects that mitigate climate change while providing economic opportunities.
TOMORROW - The climate crisis is having devastating effects on our land. Foundations have an important role to play in climate action, now more than ever. On November 30th join us with @kendmacdonald@Melina_MLM@denbymcdonnell and Impact United:

@BlockForClimate It seems like 6.4 language has changed so that corresponding adjustments will apply to all #Article6 ITMOs, not just for ITMOs from sectors in a country's NDC - strengthening avoidance of double counting from the previous draft. Can anyone confirm/clarify?
A couple of encouraging things happened at #COP26:
1) @BlockForClimate launched the #BITMO Platform to help countries issue & exchange Article 6.2 #ITMOs.
2) Countries reached agreement on #Article6 of the Paris Agreement!

We are heartened, relieved and thrilled that #Article6 of the #ParisAgreement has achieved consensus at #COP26. Cheers to all who made it happen! Our #BITMO Platform stands ready to enable quick start of Article 6.2 #ITMO issuance + exchange as #NFTs on the #Ethereum#blockchain.
My thread on the final plenary at #COP26, where countries comment on the latest draft texts. My take: vulnerable countries want clear doubling of adaptation finance, new NDCs next year, say phaseout of “inefficient fossil fuel subsidies” in the text is not enough.
Lucky to speak on a press conference at #COP26 and be doing this work to support communities and innovate to beat the #climatecrisis. So much gratitude for @josephpallant, @KamPhung@BlockForClimate @ecotrustcanada helping me get there - I just wish they were here with me!
