With climate impacts worsening, each COP is crucial to confront this global crisis. #COP29 must turn pledges into actions to protect lives and livelihoods, and share the benefits of bolder climate action widely. We spoke with @‌COP29_AZ President Designate Mukhtar Babayev:

Climate change is making hurricanes more powerful & dangerous. Storm surges are higher due to sea level rise caused by climate change. Higher temperatures also mean heavier rain & flooding during storms. We must #ActNow and take #ClimateAction .

The upcoming #COP29 climate conference must be an enabling COP: Delivering concrete outcomes to start translating the climate pledges made by countries in last year's #COP28 UAE Consensus into real-world, real-economy results. It’s time to get the job done. #preCOP29

Climate action is good for business. An alliance of 131 companies (US$4T revenue) cut emissions by 10% - equivalent of the annual emissions of France - while growing revenues by 18%. The bolder gov climate policies, the better for business & economies. 👉

📢🙌 85% of countries reference gender in their latest reports to the UN Climate Change process, including national climate plans - particularly developing countries. But further efforts are required to strengthen gender integration in climate action. 👉

💰🗑 $1 trillion: that’s the value of food we waste or lose every year. An alarming 1/3 of all food produced. This contributes 8-10% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Another example of why national climate plans must be economy-wide—covering all industries & sectors.

📢 New @IEA analysis: Delivering fully on COP28 energy goals by 2030 would put the world on a fast track towards more secure and affordable energy. And we could cut global energy costs by almost 10% 💸 Bold new national climate plans will be key. 👉

Climate, biodiversity & land — all three sustain life on Earth. 🌍 This year, at three major UN COP conferences, the world will come together to decide how to protect our climate, biodiversity and land. 2024 must be the year we scale up our action! 👉

Cities, towns, states, and regions are hubs for practical climate solutions. Take Liverpool ( @lpoolcouncil ), an "Accelerator City," rapidly decarbonizing its live music and film sector. Local governments are key in piloting solutions adapted to local realities.

Bold climate action can bring vast benefits, but we risk a two-speed transition: Some parts of the world already benefit through growth, jobs & health, while others struggle with debt and capital costs. Let's ensure no one is left behind. Otherwise, ultimately, everyone loses.
