Your purpose should be bigger than you.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Science-based policy is a cornerstone of progress and sustainable development.

I’m establishing a Scientific Advisory Board, which will focus on helping ensure science is at the center of policymaking. https://t.co/RgFNQ8IA5p

[Megan Rowling @meganrowling]

The risk of focusing only on how the world is falling behind on #ClimateAction is that we miss the innovation and momentum already happening in sectors like power, writes @topnigel, former UN #ClimateChange High-Level Champion for COP26 @RockyMtnInst https://t.co/fHOyrYUlQV

[LDC Chair @LDCChairUNFCCC]

Congratulations to the scientists from LDCs who have been elected to the @IPCC_CH bureau.

A great personal achievement that I know we will all benefit from.

Welcome to @theGCF, Mafalda!

As you say, a priority is the success of the Fund's second replenishment.

With just two months until the pledging conference on 5th October there is no time to lose.

@NRDC is keeping track of how the pledges measure up here: https://t.co/h6dwF6fkyd

[Cassie Flynn @cassie_flynn]

Strong climate action needs robust and transparent data and analysis.

Our new explainer is all about transparency, how it contributes to climate action and which countries are leading. Don't miss it.

"School was not easy for me."

Carol Greider achieved success in molecular biology in the same way she overcame dyslexia as a child: with persistence and creativity. Greider is one of many Nobel Prize laureates that have dyslexia.

I feel empowered, angry & ready for action. After @GOVUK approved Cumbria coal mine, I am on #ClimateStrike in London.

I started activism at 14. Now 18 I have learned about systemic issues & intersectional fights. It is time to bring back my education to action #FridaysForFuture

To stop a system of oppression — you need a movement of people.
