#ClimateChange is moving faster than we are. Week 2 of #COP29: Progress has been too slow and countries remain divided. WWF calls on all Parties to unlock finance, phase out fossil fuels, and raise ambition. It’s time to #ActForOurPlanet!

You may not know this, but nature is our greatest ally against the #ClimateCrisis. As wildfires, floods, and droughts escalate, it's clear we need urgent action. Nature is key to the solution—it’s time to truly value it. #COP29 #ActForOurPlanet

🔥2024 is set the be the HOTTEST year ever. Leaders must urgently act to reduce fossil fuel emissions and ramp up climate finance to protect people and nature. The upcoming climate conference #COP29 is our chance to make this happen. wmo.int/media/news/wmo… @climateWWF

We often overlook the life beneath our feet. But tiny animals like dung beetles keep soil healthy and our food systems strong. 🌱 As #COP16Colombia begins, let's push leaders to #ActForOurPlanet and protect the life which sustains us. 🌍 #NaturesTechnicians

To the leaders at #COP16Colombia: the world is watching. 🌍 #ClimateChange and nature loss are existential threats, and progress has been too slow. With six years left to meet global targets, urgent action is a must. Let’s push for bold steps now. RT to #ActForOurPlanet✊🏽

Every minute, a child dies from malaria. Climate change is further fueling the disease. Rising temperatures, changing rainfall, and weather means we are seeing more cases of malaria and in new places. The fight against malaria and climate change must go hand-in-hand. #WHS2024

With health partners, the @GlobalFund also pushes for price reductions for medical supplies and achieved cuts to HIV and TB treatments in 2023, as well as lower costs for bednets to protect against the mosquitos which spread malaria. swissinfo.ch/eng/global-hea…

Inaction isn’t an option. The #climate & nature crisis affects everything, already wreaking havoc around the world. We must act decisively now. Leaders must put aside individual interests and act in our common interest. Here are our proposals for action: theelders.org/ClimateNatureP…

The climate crisis is an economic sinkhole. It’s time to flip the script. Bolder climate action = ✅Cleaner, more affordable energy, better health ✅More jobs, stronger economies The climate crisis must be core business for EVERY government. 👉bit.ly/4dSgUu4 #AMCEN
