#COP29 kicks off today in Baku with more than 30,000 people registered to attend the climate conference in Baku. Here a baseline of data from the World Meteorological Organization - Every fraction of a degree of warming matters

"Given that 2023 was 1.48°C above the pre-industrial level according to ERA5, it is likewise virtually certain that the annual temperature for 2024 from ERA5 will be more than 1.5°C above the pre-industrial level, and likely that it will be more than 1.55°C above" Unfortunately, the 1.5°C threshold has been reached in 2024

🌍 This week marks the start of a different COP than the one we usually associate with climate change: COP16 is focused on #biodiversity. 📢 Leaders, scientists, and Indigenous communities from nearly 200 countries are gathering in Cali, Colombia, to discuss how to preserve life on Earth and halt the destruction of nature. At #COP16, countries will review their progress toward the Kunming-Montreal Agreement, which set 23 ambitious targets in 2022 to protect #ecosystems. A critical focus this year will be how countries implement their National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (#NBSAPs) to meet these goals. 🎙️ We'll dive deeper into these discussions and their global significance in upcoming episodes of Sustainability Forward - The Podcast Stay tuned! #COP16 #Biodiversity #SustainabilityForward #Conservation #KunmingMontrealAgreement #ClimateAction Carmine Fiume Wrishi Sutradhar
