#ClimateResilience means anticipating, preventing, absorbing, and recovering from shocks caused by #ClimateChange. It’s about #AfricanCities strengthening their essential response structures and functions. #Resilience4Africa

#PsychologicalResilience should be defined, not merely as an individual trait but a community-wide asset, crucial for building adaptive, resilient, and thriving communities. @ICLEI is proud to support #COP2's Roadmap for Care and Change, download report πŸ”— https://t.co/smuvg2pb61

Global average sea surface temperatures typically peak in March. Yet, in 2023, @CopernicusECMWF and @CopernicusEU data showed they reached a record high of 20.96°C on 31 July 🌑️ This is the largest temperature anomaly for any July on record. #StateofClimate #ClimateChange

To say that global temperatures in July have been exceptional is an understatement. The monthly is on track to shatter the prior July record by a massive margin, be the warmest month in terms of both absolute temperatures and anomalies.
