Here are the key highlights: UNEA-6 shined a spotlight on environmental multilateralism - Nations must unite for the planet ; Heads of state call for greater cooperation on the environment. UN Plastics Treaty; Important discussion on Climate Impact and Plastic Solution Continue reading, There was High Level Policy Dialogue on Human Mobility in the Context of Climate Change . Finally for this post; Nature-based Solution to Tackle Triple Planetary Crisis were explored.   For more click on the link 👉 https://lnkd.in/dWaiYXge

With respect to the marginal cost of abatement, these measures are literally the last thing we should be doing from the capital efficiency standpoint. Every dollar spent on these today and not spent on real climate risk mitigation projects, and technologies is a dollar wasted

This webinar is bound to provide some useful insight on the increasing necessity of developing policies to curtail fossil fuel production and keep existing reserves safely in the ground. Come and join us: https://lnkd.in/eDcT-y99

The carbon capture ability of mankind's inventions will never equal the global biosphere ability to absorb it, if managed correctly. 70% of methane and Co2 is emitted by none man made sources, agriculture and farming, beef, etc all contribute massive amounts of GHG. DAC is a futile attempt to make it seem like the oil and gas industry can offset their c02 footprint, by burning more fossil fuels to eat c02, which trees and soil bacteria eat for free. Even if renewable energy powered, you still have the carbon footprint of the equipment to make all that work. For energy solutions, the only things that matter are: 1. is it sustainable and recyclable? 2. is it Renewable Energy Powered 3. is it Net Zero Emmissions? 4. is it EMP and Cyber protected? 5. is it capable of being stand alone? But energy pollution is only about 30 to 40% of the problem, the rest is how we manage the ecosystems, and pollution which is killing the natural abilities of plants and humans to reproduce. Project Oasis is a plan to make the deserts green again, using AI powered drones that are trained to identify pests and use vacuum tube's to remove them. The insects are recycled ♻️ used as fertilizer fir the plants. The drones would be 100% Renewable energy powered. Turning deserts of northern africa green again will literally reduce global warming from the albedo, and reflectivity changes. Hurricanes in USA would be reduced dramatically as it starts with the African winds that have silica etc suspended in the air. Making the deserts green again will anchor the sand, nake it harder to get kicked up, and trap more moisture. This will allow water cycle to form, and then add trees and canopy and you've got a managed ecosphere. The side benefit is that we end starvation in Africa, and give Africans an export commodity, to other countries, that would be equal to America's food production. Managed with no pesticides, and only organic derived fertilizers, non gmo seeds, this would be an oasis of life for the whole earth. Only by converting deserts into oasis, can we hope to starve the atmosphere of excess methane and co2. Nature can do this, but she needs our help... If you would like to learn more about Oasis, I can send you a pdf. Happy Easter God Bless America 🇺🇸 🙏 ❤️ #GHOST

Join us on July 23rd 2024 (Tuesday) for the Webinar “𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝗧𝗟𝗢𝗦 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗢𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲: 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗜𝘁 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝗻?” — via Zoom at 4:00 PM Singapore Time https://lnkd.in/gkPS6J5P   On 21 May 2024, the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea rendered its much anticipated advisory opinion (AO) on States’ obligations to protect and preserve the marine environment from the harmful effects of the introduction of GHG emissions into the oceans within the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. The Tribunal confirmed the Convention’s concern with GHG emissions and that, in view of the emergency climate change imposes, States shall abide by a “stringent” due diligence standard of conduct in preventing, controlling, and reducing land-based and vessel-born marine pollution caused by GHG gases, as well as in protecting and preserving the marine environment from deleterious effects caused by the sea’s absorption of GHGs, including ocean acidification, deoxygenation, and warming. But how exactly should these findings have a bearing on States, international organizations, corporations, civil society, and other courts and tribunals, national and international? Can the protection of oceans reorient the course of efforts to address climate change? On 23rd July, join us as our expert panellists share their insights on the key aspects of the AO and its implications.

Urgent Call to Environmental Activists 📣: Today is International Day of Climate Action ☁️. Human activity has caused a significant threat to the environment, leading to climate change, an issue that requires immediate attention and action. Despite efforts to curb its effects, greenhouse gas emissions ✈️ continue to rise, accelerating climate change beyond projected levels. This results in extreme weather patterns and rising sea levels 🌊, which can have catastrophic effects. As such, the International Day of Climate Action is a critical opportunity for environmental activists to address this pressing issue worldwide. Book a program today to find out how you can help with these issues today and from home! https://lnkd.in/dHWwDMxQ

Energy transition is key to mitigating the devastating effects of climate change. At the Institute of Climate and Environmental Governance (ICEG), we believe a concerted approach towards this fight will yield results. We must show much commitment towards a sustainable environment beyond the rhetorics. NB: This is just an excerpt of my interview with UTV.
