“Climate change impacts are happening all over the world with increasing intensity. The poorest people on the planet are paying the price for the losses and damages that cannot be prevented. It's our responsibility to help them.”

Very excited to be joining the amazing WRI team this week as the Global Climate Program Director - working on the challenge of our generation.

[Sophie Yeo @some_yeo]

It is very annoying how far engagement has dropped on here since Elon took over.

It makes it almost impossible to grow a small publication like @inkcapjournal - there is just no good way to get our stories in front of people any more.

@timbales @edking_I The very first action listed to reduce emissions is .... a substantial reduction in use.

[rhys @rhystweets]

@edking_I @timbales IPCC:

To limit warming to 1.5 C, global use of coal falls by 95% by 2050, oil declines by about 60% and gas by about 45%. That's including significant use of CCS.

So yes, definitely huge cuts in fossil fuel use.

Unit economics!
Scaling timelines!
Production bottlenecks!

For the first time, the US Department of Energy is providing a hyper-detailed map of how to stand up new climate industries from scratch.

At long last, American industrial policy is getting real:

[Frank Bainimarama @JVBainimaramafj]

Now that my friend @JoeBiden has brought the USA back into the climate fold, we urge that America goes further by supporting loss and damage at #COP27. There's no clearer way to show the USA is serious about its better relationship with the planet and our US-Pacific Partnership.

in a tv report today we covered the news — families fleeing drought, scientists gluing themselves to roads, oil companies raking in record profits, the un saying we're headed for a "global catastrophe" — before breaking down the dangers, the solutions and the pace of progress

[Ajit Niranjan @NiranjanAjit]

a new report on the state of climate action looked at 40 indicators of change and found not a single one is on track to keep the world from heating to the level at which world leaders promised to try to stop global warming 1/

[Taryn Fransen @tarynfransen]

I'm seeing some misinterpretation of our @UNEP Emissions Gap Report. The report finds that a credible pathway to 1.5C is not *in place* under current policies/NDCs. That's not the same as saying 1.5C is now impossible. https://t.co/AFdb1Bzll9

[Egypt MFA Spokesperson @MfaEgypt]

United in Climate action… FM Shoukry @COP27P President Designate receives @climatemorgan & @maisa_rojas on the occasion of assuming their role as facilitators & coordinators for climate negotiations on loss & damage in #COP27

[COP27 @COP27P]

#COP27 just released its Logo, and the road to #SharmElSheikh gained shape and colors. The African sun embracing the ancient Egyptian Aten’s sun giving a rise to a new horizon.

@WRIClimate A revealing video by @vanessa_vash, who posed the officials two questions relating to @LossandDamage.

[WRI Polsky Energy Center @WRIEnergy]

#COP27 is a crucial opportunity for developed countries to demonstrate solidarity with vulnerable nations by supporting funding to address #LossandDamage from climate change.

The new @IPCC_CH report makes this need abundantly clear. Read: https://t.co/x32NludINp

I am 1/4 Ukrainian. Here’s a story relevant to today’s disaster. In 1976 I traveled to Moscow in a 6-person U.S. delegation to an ocean science conference, 1 of the early ‘safe exchanges’ (athletes & scientists) in the thaw of in relations between the U.S. & the USSR.

[Chloé Farand @ChloeFarand]

Ukrainian scientists have left the approval session of the IPCC report.

"We need to think about [the] safety of our families and it is not possible to concentrate on the wording of the summary for policymakers under attack and bombing," one scientist told me.

[Media and Climate Change Observatory (MeCCO) @media_climate]

*now published* = the 2021 review of media coverage of climate change & global warming
among findings, "2021 was the year with the highest amount of coverage of climate change or global warming since our global-level monitoring began 18 years ago in 2004"
