Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today. First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.

Historic achievement @ #COP15 - failure was not an option. Our broken relationship with nature caused the pandemic, this will help repair that connection. Thank you to all who persisted beyond brackets and borders for the best holiday gift imaginable. nature.org/en-us/newsroom/me…

What greater gift than a win-win? @JenMorrisNature is on the mic at #COP15 talking about the massive opportunity for countries to pay for conservation with a portion of their national debt. Barbados is the latest country to jump on this huge trend. nature.ly/3NNttL3

In a First, Rich Countries Agree to Pay for Climate Damages in Poor Nations (Published 2022)

After 30 years of deadlock, a new U.N. climate agreement aims to pay developing countries for loss and damage caused by global warming. But huge questions remain about how it would work.
