Throwback to when the Adaptation Programme and Financing Mechanism did climate change community outreach at the Bullhead Mountain Ash Wednesday Festival. @indidlk

Don’t be like those people who don’t believe climate change is real because they can’t see it #smartandsteady. #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange

Right before you leave home, check to see if all the lights are off and appliances not in use are unplugged. #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange

Bees are the most important pollinators for farming and soon they will become extinct. We must protect them at all cost! #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange

How much water did you drink today? Remember the time is hot and staying hydrated is vital for survival #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange

Styrofoam boxes, plastic straws and plastic cups line our roads and gullies. Reduce plastic waste by cooking at home more often. #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #point5stayalive

The fashion industry is responsible for 5% of all manmade greenhouse gas emissions, and that percentage is set to increase. Take climate action by shopping sustainably. #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange

Reduce plastic waste by shopping in bulk the next time you visit the supermarket. #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange

Why LED and not florescent? LED light bulbs are 80% more efficient than traditional light bulbs. These bulbs reduce the demand from power plants and decrease greenhouse gas emissions. #PPCRja #1point5stayalive #climateaction #climatechange

Why spend extra dollars on packaging we can’t eat? Leave the extra plastic behind on your next supermarket trip. #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange

‘We are the first generation to feel climate change and the last generation that can do something about it.” What are you doing to help? #PPCRja #1point5stayalive #climateaction #climatechange

Air pollution is an invisible killer. Emission from vehicles, bush fires and industrial exhaust now cause 50% of childhood pneumonia deaths. Do what you can to save a life. #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange

Plastic production contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and is making climate change worse. #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange

"The impact of Hurricane Dorian over the Bahamas has once again proven that Caribbean Small Island Developing States are on the front line of natural disasters of climate change." Dr. Katherine Grigsby Director and Representative of the UN Cluster Office for the Caribbean)

Studies show that humans consume 50,000 particles of micro plastic daily. What we do on land matters for our oceans and marine life. #PPCRJA #Smartandstreay #GetClimateReady #ClimateAction #1Point5StayaAive

Farm tips Rain is scarce and plants need adequate water to fully develop. Drip irrigation is an easy cost effective way to conserve and efficiently water your crops #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange

31 years ago, Hurricane Gilbert hit Jamaica hard, wreaking havoc island wide. This was a day to remember for many Jamaicans as their lives were changed forever.   #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange

Next time you see someone littering, say something. Talk to them about the ripple effects of single use plastic and climate change. #smartandsteady #getclimateready #climateaction #climatechange #1point5tostayalive #weareclimatechange
