On Day 3 of #COP28 Climate Collective hosted a panel on Bridging the Climate Finance Gap with Digital Innovations.
The discussion delved into how digital technologies contribute to transparency and coordination, advancing climate action and enhancing NDC ambition.
Thanks to our panelists Finn O'Muircheartaigh of @BeZeroCarbon, @mail4cs of @WorldBank, Yuri Soares of @IDB_Lab , Bill Kentrup of @all_infra@ethereum Climate Platform, @Leticiagsg of @UNDP , @raphabenoi of @Toucan and our CEO @annalerner for moderating.
@ICCCAD Deeply saddened to hear of this huge loss. Saleem was a visionary who shaped the adaptation agenda for decades and mentored a whole generation. We will miss you so much! Rest in peace, Saleem.
"The rapid pace of change has surprised scientists and caused concern about the dangers of extreme weather, risky climate feedback loops, and the approach of damaging tipping points sooner than expected."
