One of the key aspects of our work is to help cities identify the right solutions for their resilience building. There is nothing more powerful than having the cities themselves talk about them. Do not miss tomorrow's CFL session on @cityofsydney Climate Data Platform
Last call to register for this week's #CitiesOnTheFrontline! @cityofsydney leaders join us to share how they are creating a new generation of environmental & social accountants to evidence & report on investments for resilience & #ClimateAction. Register: https://t.co/OBaB5lYL9S

We’re excited at the @RCitiesNetwork to call #Rotterdam our home and grow our European team. That would not be possible without the support of the @ResilientRdam team and it’s leadership.

What do cities need to accelerate their climate neutrality journey? What drives their ambition and what are the barriers they need to overcome? These are the key Qs we tried to adress in this @RCitiesNetwork authored report for @NetZeroCitiesEU
📄NZC has held discussions with a sample of 64 #cities to find out why they would like to become #climateneutral (drivers), the difficulties hindering the journey (barriers) & the components an enabling environment should have (needs) Check the findings ➡️ https://t.co/wJqthyVRlX
