AWARD WINNING CLIMATE CHANGE CHAMPION, INNOVATOR, ADVOCATE AND RESEARCHER 🏆| GLOBAL CITIZEN 🌍 | GOVERNMENT INDUSTRY ACADEMIA AMBASSADOR | ENTREPRENEUR | SDG 4, 7 and 13 || CLIMATE AND CLEAN ENERGY PROFESSIONAL
🌍 Participating in Harvard Climate Action Week 2024 hosted by The Salata Institute for Climate and Sustainability at Harvard University From toasting sustainability solutions to partnering for a healthier supply chain, the lineup of events has been insightful, showcasing discussions and actionable strategies for driving climate action. 🌱 It's heartening to see sessions like "Indigenous Leadership in Raising Global Climate Ambition" and "Supporting Community-Led Climate Adaptation," highlighting the importance of inclusive and community-centered approaches in tackling climate change. 🔬 We also explored topics such as "Moving from Innovation to Deployment" and "Innovative Climate Technologies" which provided a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities in scaling climate infrastructure and leveraging technology for climate solutions. You can check our work at Climate Technology Solutions And according to a report by the International Energy Agency (IEA) 2021, the widespread adoption of innovative climate technologies, such as renewable energy and energy efficiency measures, could lead to a reduction in global greenhouse gas emissions by 45% by 2030 compared to current levels. (Net Zero by 2050: A Roadmap for the Global Energy Sector) https://lnkd.in/grykNfFB 🌟 The session on "Leading Equitable Change for Climate Action" underscores the crucial role of equity and justice in shaping climate policies and initiatives, ensuring that no community is left behind in the transition to a sustainable future. Resonating very well with our works at CLIMATE TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS HUB 🌿 And of course the critical role of cities in advancing climate action, which was highlighted in the session "How Cities Are Leveraging Food Systems to Advance Climate Action." By rethinking urban food systems, cities can play a significant role in mitigating climate change and promoting resilience. Research published in the journal Nature Food indicates that urban food systems contribute to approximately 25% of global greenhouse gas emissions, primarily due to food production, transportation, and waste . https://lnkd.in/gyAdm-iy 💡 As we come together to rethink global climate ambitions, it's clear that collaboration, innovation, and equitable leadership are key to addressing the climate crisis. Let's leverage our collective expertise and commitment to drive positive change for our planet and future generations. #HarvardClimateActionWeek #ClimateAction #Sustainability 🌎🌱

What are science based targets for nature? It's inspiring to see the global momentum behind the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), which has now engaged over 8,500 companies worldwide. Remarkably, more than 5,300 of these organizations have committed to setting science-based targets to reduce their emissions in line with the Paris agreement. This significant achievement highlights the vital role of science in shaping our sustainability strategies. Building on this framework, the Science Based Targets Network is extending its focus to include science-based targets for nature, covering water, land, biodiversity, and oceans. We are welcoming this initiative. We understand that setting scientifically sound goals is key to overcoming the challenges of maintaining and restoring our planet’s natural environments. Together, with clear, evidence-backed objectives, we can pave the way for a healthier planet.

Do you want to take your #sustainability knowledge to the next level? Are you interested in taking climate action but don’t know where to start? Myself and other fantastic volunteers will be hosting a Sustainability Sunday Sesh at The Burrow in West End on Sunday 18 August. In this fun, unique and collaborative session, participants play a 42-card game to learn about sustainability and climate science. You’ll be guided through activities and engaging discussions about systemic solutions and learn what individuals can do to live a life that respects the limits of our planet. 🌏 Why do it? There’s a lot of conversation, reporting and media about climate change. Some of it well-meaning and some of it misleading. Taking action towards a sustainable future can feel daunting, overwhelming and pointless. This workshop is designed for anyone with an interest in the topic, to help demystify information regarding #climatechange, present science-based information and empower individuals to take action. 🌏 Who’s it for? If you're relatively new to the topic, this is the best 3 hours you can spend on it. If you're already advanced, you will discover a tool to raise awareness and empower others around you. For anyone in between, you’ll come away feeling enlightened and re-engaged to act. This workshop is suitable for anyone over the age of 14. MUST REGISTER. For more information and to buy tickets: https://lnkd.in/gy_sruDh All proceeds go to the genius and dedicated people behind the unique learning experience at Climate Fresk Australia
