The warning signs are clear: record-breaking heat, worsening droughts and floods, and growing threats to food, water and livelihoods. At #COP31, the world must turn climate commitments into urgent, tangible #ClimateAction. go.undp.org/GWz

A special ride with @UNDP Goodwill Ambassador @GrmayeBiniam on what cycling can teach us. One shared goal. Knowing when to lead. Respecting the nature we depend on. Facing tough climbs and headwinds together. Lessons for the road and for climate action. #COP31

Climate action is an investment in jobs, stronger economies and energy security. But climate plans need to become reality. Through ‘Climate Promise: Forward’, @UNDP is bringing the UN together to help countries unlock investment and deliver climate solutions. go.undp.org/climatepromisefo… #COP31

Energy security matters for development. It protects people and countries. Renewable power means more stable costs for households and businesses, and less exposure to global fuel shocks. More from my conversation on @cleaningUpPod with Ana Rovzar: cleaningup.live/socials

“My hope is that the spirit of volunteerism at #COP17Armenia will inspire people around the world to take action for nature.” For @Ivana_Zivkovic_, #IVY2026 is a call to recognise the power of volunteerism and inspire action for sustainable development far beyond 2026.

Healthy ecosystems provide us with water, food, pollination, fertile soil and many other benefits. Damage to nature ultimately affects people’s lives and livelihoods. Protecting nature means protecting our future. #ForPeopleForPlanet #BiodiversityOurLifeline
