The fossil fuel age is flailing & failing. We're at the dawn of a new & clean energy era. An era where cheap, abundant, renewable energy powers a world rich in economic opportunity. We have the tools to power the future for humanity. This is our moment of opportunity.

We have to thank you Ambassador @SwissAmbUK @ClimateWorks for convening this amazing cohort of women transforming societies and responding to the climate emergency! @CleanPowerSue @SDDecleve @NizamiGanjaviIC @GWLvoices @CitiesAlliance

Ex CEO of @Allianz Investment Management explains how #climate = end of insurance as we know it... 'we are fast approaching temperature levels—1.5°C, 2°C, 3°C—where insurers will no longer be able to offer coverage for many of these risks' https://t.co/smheR7K2iN

Blunt from @SwissRe. If you want to tackle #climate, take the transition seriously. 'Mitigating climate change requires the global real economy to transform. That’s one of the reasons why Swiss Re supports clients in the transition to a net-zero economy'

Breaking: UN Pact for the Future is adopted & repeats agreement made at COP28 to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels, triple renewable energy, and double energy efficiency. Fossil fuel phaseout is the new normal for #climate action. #UNGA79 #SummitoftheFuture2024

Today we see runaway conflicts & climate change. Runaway inequalities & debt. Runaway development of new technologies without guardrails. The upcoming Summit of the Future is a step towards global mechanisms to address these issues in an effective, networked & inclusive way.

Africa’s Debt Crisis Has ‘Catastrophic Implications’ for the World

“Whereas agriculture, forestry, and land-use change combined account for about 18 percent of global emissions, they represented more than three-quarters of Brazil’s between 2000 and 2020.”

I was deeply moved by my meeting with coastal communities in Samoa forced to move their homes inland. Sea levels are rising at a rate not seen in at least 3,000 years. If we don’t reverse these climate change trends, we will see this tragedy in other coastal areas globally.
