A greener construction sector will benefit the environment, create millions of jobs & help ease the housing crisis in #London. “I’m proud that London is leading the way in the green transition of the construction sector…”, - @MayorofLondon @SadiqKhan ➡️
New research from @C40Cities makes it clear: by investing in initiatives like the Green Skills Academy and fast-tracking building upgrades, we’re not just cutting carbon emissions—we’re creating jobs and making sure every Londoner has access to new opportunities.

We welcome the UK’s new national climate plan. C40 looks forward to working with the UK and other international climate leaders to deliver ambitious and inclusive national climate plans that keep equity and justice at the forefront. Cities, devolved administrations and national governments working together is the best way to deliver strong emission reduction targets, and secure the goals of the Paris Agreement - this is the essence of the CHAMP pledge which the UK has endorsed.

Federal inaction will not derail climate action and progress. Where Trump is letting the world down, @MikeBloomberg , @BloombergDotOrg and others are stepping up to ensure the US meets its international climate obligations despite Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Agreement. 👏
Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's philanthropy and other US funders said they will cover US financial obligations to the UN climate framework after Donald Trump called for the US to withdraw - for a second time - from the Paris climate agreement

Trump's withdrawal of the US from the Paris Climate Agreement is strengthening the resolve of cities worldwide to deliver action that moves us towards the targets that nearly 200 countries agreed to 10 years ago. Together, cities will tackle the existential threat posed by climate change. The Mayor of Paris, @Anne_Hidalgo and the @MayorofSeattle Bruce Harrell join their counterparts worldwide in reaffirming their commitments to creating a safe future.
