Rachel Kyte, the UK Climate Envoy, said meeting existing pledges could reduce warming by half a degree. She argued that tackling super-pollutants would create more room to act urgently on carbon dioxide emissions. https://t.co/18BBgpIuIj #ClimateAction #Sustainability #GlobalWarming #UK
A post promoting a We Don’t Have Time video said Johanna Fager of Swedbank had discussed at Climate Week NYC why banks could no longer rely solely on historical data to calculate risk amid rapid climate change. It quoted her saying, “We can’t take the cost of inaction.”
Martina Otto, head of the Secretariat at the Climate and Clean Air Coalition, said each year of delayed action meant $1.5 trillion in losses. She highlighted what she described as the hidden costs of coping with pollution, including strain on healthcare systems and reduced quality of life.
The author asked whether video games could make a positive difference in the world and wrote that Green Leap Games aimed to show that gaming and helping the planet could go hand in hand. They said the game *Hope’s Adventure* supported coral reef protection and healthy marine ecosystems.
The post said that, at Climate Week NYC, Anna Ryott of EY and Johanna Fager of Swedbank explained why transition finance should be included in all risk assessments to move beyond green sub-projects and future-proof the economy. It described the cost of inaction as “brutal” and directed readers to watch more on We Don’t Have Time. https://t.co/t1R6d4lIwB #ClimateAction #Sustainability #Finance #SE #US
Future Earth wrote that the 10 New Insights in Climate Science showed climate risks were increasing, while action could still make a difference. It said rapid emissions cuts were essential and urged science to guide decisions and solutions to advance faster as COP31 approached.
The post invited users to watch the second day of “Accelerating Action on Climate and Clean Air” with the Climate and Clean Air Coalition, saying the event would examine how addressing climate change and air pollution could strengthen climate action ahead of COP 31. It directed viewers to We Don’t Have Time for more information.
The post asked whether AI could help protect birds at offshore wind farms and said thermal cameras monitored bird activity day and night for nine months at Vattenfall’s Hollandse Kust Zuid wind farm, recording two confirmed collisions.
