So proud of these young women, leaders within their communities both educating on climate impacts and resilience, but also responding to gender based violence that comes with the stresses of climate impacts. Thanks @wagggsworld GLACC program for all they do.
Our delegates at #COP29 met Rachel Kyte, UK Special Representative on Climate & shared lived experiences with #climatechange in their home countries & emphasised the need to invest in local climate projects for creating a #sustainablefuture for all. #BringInTheGirls #WAGGGSImpact

Inspired by the vision and leadership of @ClimateEnvoyKe - we are hard at work at #COP29 pushing for the agreements we need to keep supporting all countries through their energy transitions and building resilient societies.
Had a bilateral meeting with H.E @rkyte365 UK's Special Representative for Climate reinforcing our longstanding strategic partnership. We discussed Africa's priorities and critical issues of decarbonization and climate action at COP29. During our discussions, we explored mechanisms to leverage climate finance to accelerate renewable energy deployment and advance green industrialization across Africa. We look forward to engaging the new UK government in transformative climate action.

Seems so poignant in the week where the earth’s surface average temperature broke all records - twice. #extremeheat #ClimateCrisis
A remarkable work from 1900 by the Danish artist Valdemar Møller who for years had been experimenting with painting landscapes viewed directly into the sun. In 'Evening Sun,' made in the forest of Fontainebleau, Møller worked with the sun directly in his eyes, turning the world supernaturally sharp, an exceptionally full and complete sense of sunlight and atmosphere.

From the east coast of the US to UAE, And Iran extreme heat is punishingly dangerous at the moment. @lauriegoering pulls women leading with solutions together in this great piece for Climate Resilience for All. #extremeheat #climate
