Today, #COP31 begins in Antalya, Türkiye.
Now is the time to turn commitments into measurable climate action through stronger multilateral cooperation and a shared commitment to deliver for people and planet.

Following my just-concluded workshop at @DukeSanford, on “Beyond Symptoms: Healing Climate at the Roots,” I am excited to be heading to Antalya, Türkiye 🇹🇷, for #COP31. It has been an enriching journey of learning, reflection and engagement, and I look forward to joining global leaders, policymakers, climate advocates and development partners to advance meaningful climate action, climate justice and a just transition.
As Founder & Executive Director of @ClimateWed, I am looking forward to contributing to conversations, sharing perspectives from Africa and strengthening collaborations that translate climate commitments into practical solutions for people and communities. If you see me, I am available for moderation, speaking engagements, panel discussions and strategic partnership opportunities during COP31. If you are organising a session, exploring collaboration or seeking to amplify impactful climate solutions, I would be delighted to connect.
My sincere appreciation goes to @GreenFaith_Afr for supporting my participation in COP this year. Your support means a great deal and reinforces the importance of collective action in advancing climate justice and a sustainable future. See you in Antalya! 🌍

A big win for a true champion of climate science!

With global warming set to exceed 1.5°C, adaptation is falling behind while climate-related losses and damages are mounting.
Developing countries need far more finance to adapt to climate change.

ICCDI AFRICA retweeted
Countries most vulnerable to climate change have mostly contributed almost nothing to global emissions.
Yet international public adaptation finance from developed countries to least developed countries and small island developing states is flattening.
#AdaptationGap findings: unep.org/en/publications/rep…
ICCDI AFRICA retweeted
As the world heads for warming above 1.5°C, climate adaptation is too slow.
Even if international public adaptation finance tripled by 2035, it would only cover 20-29% of developing countries' needs.
As impacts grow, more funding is needed to protect lives and livelihoods.

The Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), Inger Andersen, has called on countries to accelerate the implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KMGBF), warning that progress towards achieving global biodiversity targets remains off track.
Andersen made the call at the closing of the 17th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD COP17) in Yerevan, Armenia, where countries adopted a series of decisions aimed at strengthening global efforts to halt and reverse biodiversity loss. url-shortener.me/Q6OK via EnviroNews
