Reporting to the #UNFCCC shows a worrying trend of more governments obscuring the true scale of their military’s climate pollution, including #COP31 host #Türkiye.

✅ Attended the #Pathfinder Initiative hybrid event hosted by @lshtm.bsky.social . Great insights on climate & health evidence maps, city action, evaluation & capacity building in Sub-Saharan Africa. #ClimateHealth #ClimateAction #PublicHealth #EvidenceToAction #COP #COP31 #IPCC #UNFCCC #LSHTM

Nearly 30 negotiators from 12 Asia-Pacific countries gathered in Nepal to strengthen their UNFCCC negotiating skills, advance national priorities and amplify the voice of climate-vulnerable countries.

Knowledge is consequential. A hazard with no name in the plan gets no instrument, no budget, no watcher. The naming runs one way: categories set at the #UNFCCC, plans #NAP written to fit, money #FRLD released to what fits. It reaches the Himalaya small, and late. nepalitimes.com/we-had-no-na...
