EU Environment and Climate’s Post

𝐖𝐡𝐲 "𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞" 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠. Arnold Schwarzenegger said it best: “As long as they keep talking about global climate change, they are not gonna go anywhere. 'Cause no one gives a s*** about that. So my thing is, let's go and rephrase this and communicate differently about it and tell people we're talking about pollution. Pollution creates climate change, and pollution kills.” How true! Moral preachings don’t work. We need to change how we talk about climate change. Focusing on pollution and leveraging these unique perspectives can make climate action more impactful and inclusive. In this article, I write about why people don't care about climate change anymore: https://lnkd.in/eZrBgt6X #ClimateChange #Pollution #Sustainability #Diversity #InclusiveCommunication

🌍 Climate Change: Our Shared Responsibility Research shows that human activities are the primary driver of global warming. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, every citizen can play a role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions through simple yet effective actions: 1️⃣ Reducing home energy consumption 2️⃣ Using public transport or cycling 3️⃣ Decreasing meat and dairy consumption 4️⃣ Purchasing sustainable and low-carbon products Through collective action, we can positively impact the future of our planet. 🌱 #ClimateChange #SocialResponsibility #Sustainability #Environment

"Climate change is an urgent global issue that requires immediate attention Rising temperatures, melting ice caps and extreme weather events are clear indicators of a changing planet's climate. Human activities, including the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation have created this crisis. Tackling climate change requires collective action, from reducing greenhouse gas emissions to promoting sustainable practices. It is vital that individuals, communities and nations work together to protect our environment and safeguard the future of our planet #Climatechange#

🌍 Climate change is having a profound impact on our planet, with rising temperatures, extreme weather events and the loss of biodiversity. It’s essential that we take action now to address these challenges.  This "International Day of Climate Action", we reaffirm our commitment to accountability in reducing carbon emissions for the benefit of future generations. Together, we can slow the pace of global warming and build a more sustainable world for tomorrow.  Join us on this journey towards a greener, more resilient planet.

Let's harness the power of stories to drive change.💪 Scotland's Climate Week is happening 23-29 September and we're calling on everyone to get involved to share their "Stories for Change". Everyone knows that taking climate action is good for the planet, but by sharing your story you can highlight how making changes have helped you feel good too - inspiring others to follow suit. Maybe you’ve been driving less, and realised you love clearing your head on the walk to work. Or maybe your business is mapping out its sustainability journey, and you’ve found a few cost-saving tricks along the way. Together, our stories can inspire others to change.💚 Get ready to share your own or your organisation’s story using #ScotClimateWeek.

The need for action on climate change has never been clearer than it has in the past few years. As we witness extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and declining air quality, it's evident that the time for action is now. It is time to start talking about how the use of fossil fuels has adverse effects on human health, vulnerable regions and our planet as a whole. There's hope but we need to act together and act now, By raising awareness and taking proactive steps to reduce emissions, we can mitigate their impact and pave the way for a more sustainable future for generations to come. PS: Happy new week #emissionsreduction #pollutants

🌍 Climate change affects all of us, and solutions start with individual action! At the Climate Change Summit 2024, we explored impactful ways to drive sustainability. One story shared by Kokou Agbo-Bloua really stood out—a hummingbird fighting a forest fire by carrying water, drop by drop. It reminded us that every effort, no matter how small, counts. Only together, we can make a difference. Let’s all do our part! #ClimateAction #Sustainability #ClimateChangeSummit2024

What can each of us do to mitigate climate change? Check out these five ways. We all have an impact and everyone should try to lower theirs. #smallbusiness #local #climatechange #zerowaste

The super-rich are dining out on the planet, producing more carbon pollution in 90 minutes than the average person does in a lifetime. With their private jets, superyachts, and polluting investments, the super-rich are fuelling the climate crisis at a rate that is almost unimaginable. The rest of us are paying the price.   Nakabuye Hilda Flavia, Marinel Ubaldo, RSW, Pavel Martiarena Huaman and Cynthia Houniuhi remind us why we must call for these rich polluters to be held accountable!   It's time to #MakeRichPollutersPay to help tackle the climate crisis and build a fairer future.   Demand climate justice.
