The Earth's climate is in uncharted territory. At COP28 UAE, leaders must step-up and build momentum on three critical areas: fossil fuels, food and resilience. It's clear what needs to happen to get the transition right for people, nature and climate: wri.org/cop28

It is only becoming more clear and more urgent to course-correct on climate. The world has made some progress—in some cases, exponential—but overall, we are lagging. The State of Climate Action report provides a roadmap of the systemic changes needed: bit.ly/3MDbkQD

Warning from UN Environment Programme in its #EmissionsGap report: with fully implemented NDCs, world is on track for 2.5-2.9°C global warming. No significant progress from last year. To ensure a 1.5 future, countries need to cut emissions by 42% by 2030. 1/2

Food is nourishing, food is taste 😋 Food is culture, food is change 💪 Food is power, right on our plates 🍽 Let's put all our "I's on our plates" and unleash the power of food for change, says Dhanush Dinesh👇 #WTFood #FutureOfFood #FoodForThought #FoodSystems #ClimateAction

Collective action to solve global problems is seldom successful. Judged by this low bar, #COP28 was a success. Agreements on food systems reform, renewable energy, carbon markets & nature solutions provide hope. It's not enough, but a valuable spur to action. It’s not too late!

Food is responsible for 1/3 of global GHG emissions. Fixing the food system helps solve the problem. At #COP28, we unveiled ambitious grants to cut livestock emissions, trace cattle and safeguard forests as part of our $1 billion commitment to transforming food systems.

Today, WMO confirms that 2023 smashed the global temperature record by a huge margin. This conclusion is based on the consolidated global temperature figure derived from six international datasets. Press release 👇🏽 wmo.int/news/media-cen…

🎊 Today's the Justice40 3-year anniversary – the historic initiative that put justice + equity at the heart of our national climate agenda. Dr. Cecilia Martinez reflects on its impact in delivering solutions to under resourced communities in the U.S. ➡️ bit.ly/3SxE5lo.

From exploring new technologies to shaping policy frameworks, we're paving the way for GHG removal solutions that work for everyone. The goal? Scale removal technologies in a way that's equitable, just, and avoids unintended consequences.

Throwing it back to Dubai when our bald video turned heads!👨 Huge shoutout to our partner Andy Jarvis at Bezos Earth Fund, for supporting us along the way! 🙌 #ThrowbackThursday

It’s taken years to arrive at the point where food is finally part of the climate change discussion. While countries update their national plans to reflect its importance, I’ll be making the case for a yes-and food system wherever I go. Bezos Earth Fund bezosearthfund.org/news-and-insig…

We just announced US$9.4m in grants going after the elusive methane vaccine for cattle. This one excites me. I'd call it a moonshot - if it does work, this could have planetary level impacts. But it's a big "if", and that's the kind of risk taking I think we need to be making.

Tape measures, tree climbing, and tech. That’s how Smithsonian Panama & the Bezos Earth Fund are studying forests in the Amazon. Read Max Bearak’s latest The New York Times article for the full story: nyti.ms/4efUwL7.

To make peace with nature, we need to build bridges – between people, sectors, and governments. #COP16Colombia is our chance to do just that. Read more from Cristián Samper here: bit.ly/3AiERw2.

DSI agreement reached at #COP16Colombia! This decision lays the foundation for sustainable conservation funding and equitable benefit-sharing. The Bezos Earth Fund is ready to drive this work forward. Full statement from Dr. Cristián Samper → bit.ly/3Ck2vsF.

Conservation is strongest when those closest to the land lead. At COP16, a new subsidiary body was created to ensure Indigenous and local knowledge guides biodiversity policy for years to come. Learn more about this lasting framework for justice → bit.ly/40uBQ6v.
