Donna Andrews: We will see that women are at the centre of these processes - but are they represented and engaged at the table where the decisions are made? #LPC2019 #nourish

Donna Andrews: the solutions and fixes of the last several years haven't worked. We need reflective time to identify the right questions. How do we ensure who represents us and ensure we have land and food governance that is accountable? #LPC2019 #NOURISH

@scottdrimie "We see nature as a resource. But food is at the kernel of what it is to be alive. We have to think of food as a diet within nature's limits, and not just a resource that we extract." #LPC2019 #NOURISH

@scottdrimie "So how do we change the system? Engaging the head and the heart in the complexity. Connecting to what food is to ourselves and the living world. Thinking systemically. And understanding the actors involved and engaging them." #LPC2019 #NOURISH

Does Paris have a special place in your heart? A lesser-known fact about this famous French city is that it is where one of the most significant climate change moments occurred. Curious to know why? #ClimateCommit #ParisPromises #SundayRead

This reminds me of the phrase 'what is measured gets managed' - if businesses and cities track water use, waste levels and energy consumption, they can set planet-positive targets to reduce their footprint & impact #ClimateCommit WWF South Africa NBI

For those who are hearing about #SBTs for the first time, this refers to Science-Based Targets, focused on ambitious corporate climate action. Find out more about it here: sciencebasedtargets.org #ClimateCommit #AllianceForClimateAction

A2. I think Woolworths SA believes in a climate-safe future because they monitor their impact at farm level all the way to retail, but I don't know if they have set #ClimateCommit targets? WWF South Africa NBI

A2. Viva Virgin! As a long-time fan of the @virginactiveSA brand I am proud to see how Richard Branson explains the ways in which this business is committed to reducing their enviro impact by 2030 youtube.com/watch?v=uJhUzg…

A3. Communication is essential for businesses and cities to share with their customers what they are doing - in a simple way - if they don't share, how do we know? #ClimateCommit WWF South Africa NBI

A2. I've heard about MellowVans and MISER® Hybrid Technologies being part of SA's #AlliancesForClimateAction and both are incredible examples of low-emission innovations #ProudlySA #ClimateCommit WWF South Africa NBI

Who should be responsible for thinking about waste positive actions - the businesses who produce the waste, individuals/ households or the city we pay our rates and taxes to collect waste? #ClimateCommit WWF South Africa NBI

Can you give an example of how - or in which sectors - these companies and cities are working collaboratively to reduce emissions? #ClimateCommit WWF South Africa NBI

When dams run dry, other sources of water become more important to us – like the water #underourfeet. Thank you to AB InBev & The South African Breweries for their support to fund this video & help to enable sustainable groundwater management. youtube.com/watch?v=ft8_WG… #SaveWater WWF Water 💧🐟
