#COP27 has taken an important step towards justice. I welcome the decision to establish a loss and damage fund and to operationalize it in the coming period. Clearly this will not be enough, but it is a much-needed political signal to rebuild broken trust.

1/8. My quick take on #agrifood systems related outcomes from COP27 1. The term food systems has been meticulously avoided in #Koronovia because of sensitivities around demand side measures such as diets by developed countries, and mitigation concerns by developing countries

Soils, have an extraordinary capacity to form, store, transform & recycle nutrients. 95% of our food comes from soils, & healthy #soils contain most of the necessary elements that plants need to be healthy & productive. #WorldSoilDay #Soils4Nutrition

With our bottomless appetite for unchecked and unequal economic growth, humanity has become a weapon of mass extinction. At #COP15 I am urging leaders to adopt and deliver an ambitious peace pact with nature — and deliver a green, healthy future for all.

More women and girls in science equals a better future for all. We must promote gender equality in science by affirming women’s rights & breaking down stereotypes. Let's all do our part to fill classrooms, laboratories & boardrooms with women scientists. #WomenInScience

Climate change doesn't play fair. Between 2010 to 2020, deaths from floods, droughts, and storms were 15 times higher in highly vulnerable regions, compared to other parts of the world. It's time to take a stand for climate justice.

Progress in women’s rights won over decades is vanishing before our eyes. On the current track, gender equality is 300 years away. Promoting women’s full contributions to society is not an act of charity or a favour to women. It is a must and it benefits everyone.

Food systems are vital for our societies, but they account for 1/3 of global GHGs. We’re hoping #COP28 will lead to concrete outcomes for #FoodSystems. The livelihoods and food security of billions of people depend on it: iisd.org/articles/expla… #ActionOnFood #COP28UAE UN Climate Change
