Clean Cities’ Post

June 5th is Clean Air Day. As a part of #CanadianEnvironmentWeek, today is a reminder of the importance of clean air and the impacts of air pollution on our health and ecosystems. By taking steps to reduce our emission levels and ecological footprints, we can mitigate the effects of climate change. #CleanAirDay #DillonConsulting #MyDillon

Artificial barriers have long blocked Europe's waterways. But as many of these structures age, a movement is growing to let rivers flow freely once again. https://bbc.in/3VGOjlh #environment #climate

On World Oceans Day, we celebrate our oceans and learn how oceans help sustain human life. Oceans generate most of the oxygen we breathe, regulate the climate and provide us with food. But oceans are in danger of excessive pollution and ecosystem degradation. Learn these 5 ways we can keep our ocean clean this #WorldOceansDay: https://lnkd.in/gvmfdbGS

My message on World Environment Day is clear—now is the time for action to prevent a climate catastrophe. Here are just some of the things we’re doing in London: 🌬 Putting air pollution filters in primary schools 🍃 Protecting and enhancing our green spaces 🚌 Delivering 100% zero emission bus fleet by 2030 🌳 Planting more trees and cleaning up London’s rivers #WorldEnvironmentDay #WorldEnvironmentDay2024

A new report released by Protect Our Winters and Australian National University finds if we don’t rapidly cut climate pollution, Australia’s snow industry will look dramatically different by 2050. Momentum is building behind cuts to climate pollution. By scaling up clean energy, like solar and wind, this decade, future generations can experience the magic of snow seasons, and our regions can continue to thrive.❄️☃️ To learn more, check out Protect Our Winters’ website or head here to read the full report: https://lnkd.in/gcjV5snU

Public buildings are one of the largest producers of greenhouse gas emissions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This has contributed to the climate crisis and caused air pollution and respiratory problems. GCF is working with UNDP and the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina to change that. #CleanAirNow This #WorldCleanAirDay, learn more about how this #ClimateAction project is transforming public buildings in the country by making them energy-efficient: https://g.cf/fp051 UNDP u Bosni i Hercegovini

#Climatechange is affecting our oceans—and as divers, we see the impact firsthand. Rising sea temperatures, coral bleaching, and changing marine ecosystems are challenges we can’t ignore. At #DANEurope, we believe that taking steps to reduce our carbon footprint, supporting sustainable dive practices, and spreading awareness about climate issues are crucial. Remember, the ocean is our shared home. Protecting it ensures future generations of divers can enjoy its beauty as much as we do. Dive safely, but also dive consciously! #internationaldayofclimateaction Photo by our Ambassador Boaz Samorai

☀️🌍🚘 As you've probably heard, too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere creates a "greenhouse effect" that would be completely out of control without the ocean, forests, and other natural "carbon sinks." 📲 This #ClimateWeek, learn more about the ocean's role in absorbing carbon– and regulating our climate: go.whoi.edu/carbonsinks

Planting trees is a powerful climate solution! 🌳🌍 Trees absorb CO2, combatting climate change, while providing habitat for wildlife and improving air quality. Let's sow the seeds of a greener, healthier future together! 🌱💚 #PlantTrees #ClimateAction #EarthMonth Check out EBSCO's environmental resources to learn more about: https://m.ebsco.is/ugLuT

Four in five #UK councils see climate change hitting health - Extreme heat and flooding are top climate hazards for UK local authorities with the number of climate actions reported by councils nearly doubling from 2018 CDP #climateaction #climatechange #airquality https://ow.ly/R27O50RikPY
