As with other hazards, there's misplaced euphoria about infra & tech solutions (cool roofs everywhere!) but not enough systemic change (glass facades everywhere!)
In a 1.5-2C world radio jingles on heat risks, do's/don'ts pamphlets alone aren't going to cut it. #adaptationlimits
Thousands fleeing conflict and extreme weather in Mozambique, says @Tearfund https://t.co/4kN4T6HN90
“One can imagine how bad it would be even for a 1.5C warmer world. Any warming beyond 1.5C can pose an existential threat for vulnerable populations in the absence of a strong adaptation and mitigation action.” @drfahadsaeed 👏#climateadaptation #climateimpacts #adaptationlimits
“The most distressing thing is that the limits to adaptation are being breached for a large poor population of the region at the present level of global warming. One can imagine how bad it would be even for a #1o5C warmer world” - @drfahadsaeed #heatwave https://t.co/qSk6Vfado8
But it's not all smooth sailing: there are significant #adaptationlimits that hinder our ability to adapt. Lack of #finance, biophysical limits of #ecosystems, and e.g. reduced availability of freshwater. Losses and damages occur with increasing warming.
Happening now #COP25: @rjtklein at #IPCC #WMO pavillion explaining how the World Adaptation Science Program came to be, and its linkages and new work plan. @IPCC_CH #climateadaptation @WaspClimate #adaptationlimits @AdaptFutures #AR6 #COP25Madrid #climate @AdaptXChange
@tommitchell_kic @AdaptXChange @ynassef @wtmpacific @bl_preston @GriffithUniVC @RobertLempert 2) having a systems perspective will help in understanding potential cases for #maladaptation where one sector’s actions could reduce resilience in another. And understanding better #adaptationlimits is also crucial, where these are likely to emerge and how.
Off to @IPCC_CH WGII Lead Author meeting, equipped of course with the latest book on #innovationcapital. Looking forward to continuing discussions on #climateadaptation across the #AR6. @HarvardBiz @ynassef @AdaptXChange @Griffith_Uni #adaptationscience #adaptationlimits
Great presentation @ECCA2019 on how to challenge some of the assumptions that are driving our #coastalplanning approaches and what that means for #effectiveadaptation. @AdaptXChange @IPCC_CH @ynassef #climateriskmanagement @r_biesbroek #adaptationlimits
Session ongoing @ECCA2019 on #adaptationlimits and #lossanddamage with @reinhardmechler presenting on limits and transformational #adaptation: “We need to understand people’s perceptions on risk and limits” @LossDamage @AdaptXChange @IPCC_CH
Anyone wanting to get excited, come and have a listen tomorrow @ECCA2019 on what is going on with the latest research on #lossanddamage and #adaptationlimits. @AdaptXChange #unfccc @LossDamage #insights #adaptationscience @ynassef
🔍Looking for an exciting session @ECCA2019? Join us tomorrow to discuss the latest interdisciplinary research and practice to address #lossanddamage from climate change 👇
Likewise, look forward catching up with colleagues @ECCA2019 and learning the latest on cutting edge #climateadaptation. We are also doing “meet the editors” sessions with @sdessai for @RiskClimate, make sure to have a chat with us! #adaptationlimits @AdaptXChange @IPCC_CH
Anyone coming to @ECCA2019? Can't wait to catch up!
And... if you are interested in #LossAndDamage come to our session at 2pm on Tuesday
@LossDamage @elisa_calliari @reinhardmechler @ColinMcQuistan @DrJNalau
Another piece of the puzzle why #climateaction is necessary right now: Sea levels may rise much faster than previously predicted, swamping coastal cities #climatechange #adaptationlimits #riskmanagement @NWP_UNFCCC @IPCC_CH @climatecouncil https://t.co/UIpBhFS7Fr
This just arrived!! Had already a quick glance and very impressed, good work @UNmigration on such a detailed study and well presented report. @SaleemulHuq @NWP_UNFCCC @IPCC_CH #migration #climatechange #adaptationlimits @keesvdgeest @ColinMcQuistan
This is now a daily reality, with new and more urgent observations of #climatechange impacts. We can adapt but only to a point; securing cuts in #emissions needs to be a priority alongside #adaptation. #AdaptationLimits @NWP_UNFCCC @jamespeshaw @IPCC_CH @SaleemulHuq
Pretty much every day now we get a new report into the growing impacts of climate change on our society and economy.
There are limits to adaptation, increased momentum needed to bring the @LossDamage discussion back at the center in the #COP25 in Chile. #AdaptationLimits
@keesvdgeest @meganrowling @TRF_Climate @Braced This is what we aim to achieve with #ClimateDamagesTax - make the #fossilfuel industry pay for its #climate #lossanddamage (or #AdaptationLimits) = #polluterpays way to raise #finance. Litigation is second best option, but might be part of the pathway.

This is so spot on: especially in a changing #climate, we need to ask how sustainable our #investments are and how we can increase the #resilience of #infrastructure. @NWP_UNFCCC @bl_preston @RANDCorporation #adaptationscience #AdaptationLimits @naturesustainab
Infrastructure have an important place in meeting sustainability goals. However, we must learn how to manage infrastructure within the increasing complex world: https://t.co/skc9FpYBE3 @URExSRN
Stage direction: Gentle rocking, in a hammock. Long pause. Pylades tries to put Orestes toes in his mouth ... just editing in prep for 2 days of R&D with @ByJoveTheatre. #amwriting #task #AdaptationLimits THERE ARE NONE - why I love #adaptation #greek #hammock #boys
Our expert @keesvdgeest participated in @Braced @TRF's online discussion on #adaptationlimits. Read through the discussion using the hashtag; the discussion archive should be coming soon at https://t.co/ZeJRZCOmRw
@Braced Our research in Bangladesh showed, for example, that rice farmers had been able to adapt to gradually increasing soil salinty, but when salinity spiked after a cyclone they were not able to harvest rice for three years. The amount of salt in the soil was beyond #adaptationlimits
Science communication isn't just about translating "hard science" into lay language.
It's also understanding why people may not care even if they understand, why they may not act even if they care, and why they may take the "wrong" action
