To keep temperature rise below 1.5°C, fossil fuel operations must reduce their methane emissions by 75% by 2030. 📉
To reach this target, a #JustTransition is required in methane action planning. WRI Climate looks at why a this is crucial: bit.ly/3xwF9h8
Yesterday, #SystemsChangeLab hosted an insightful discussion on how the world can transition from a “take-make-waste” economy to a #CircularEconomy . 🔄
But what exactly is the circular economy?

We've got 'two years to save the world' so eloquently put by Simon Stiell. One big ticket on the global agenda needs to be #Adaptation finance for climate vulnerable countries this year. Currently, only 33% of climate finance goes towards adaptation, let's get to 50%.
For the #climate wonks out there, check out this new #ACT2025 paper spotlighting #adaptation strides, gaps & expectations for 2024

We need to start embedding climate change #adaptation as a way of life.
Only 54 developing countries have a National Adaptation Plan (NAP).
The UN Climate Change and partners will support the other 100 developing countries in formulating their NAPs and identifying the needed funding.
California is a first-mover on climate policy, renewable energy, EVs & more. But at the same time, the state is still a fossil fuel production powerhouse.
