10 days remain until #COP29Azerbaijan! As the world prepares to gather in Baku, anticipation builds for impactful discussions to enhance ambition and enable action toward a more sustainable future. Together, we’re ready to make lasting impact and meaningful change. #COP29 #COP29Azerbaiian #ClimateAction

I'm optimistic about potential breakthroughs at COP29 for real progress on climate finance. This is crucial to accelerate pathways to Net Zero, and securing the necessary funding for adaptation. We hope Baku will lay the groundwork for COP30 in Belém, Brazil, November 2025, which promises to be the most significant climate event since the Paris Agreement a decade ago. The IPCC has made it clear: global emissions must peak by 2025 to keep warming under the 1.5-degree threshold. COP29 Azerbaijan - the world is watching in anticipation!

A Call to Action: Uniting for a Sustainable Future. As we stand at the crossroads of environmental catastrophe, it's imperative that every individual, organization, and government comes together to safeguard our planet's future. The fate of our children, communities, and planet hangs in the balance. Climate change, environmental degradation, and social inequality threaten our very existence. Rising temperatures, devastating natural disasters, and unpredictable weather patterns imperil our homes, health, and livelihoods. The consequences of inaction will be catastrophic. However, there is hope. By embracing a shared mantra – Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Replant, and Rejuvenate – we can mitigate climate change, protect biodiversity, ensure social justice, foster economic growth, and preserve natural resources. A Collective Responsibility Every individual and sector must take action: Parents: Educate your children on climate literacy, model sustainable behaviors, and advocate for environmentally responsible policies. Teachers: Integrate climate education into curricula, inspiring future generations to become climate leaders. Students: Demand climate action from leaders, participate in climate initiatives, and innovate sustainable solutions. Business Owners: Adopt environmentally responsible practices, invest in clean technologies, and prioritize social responsibility. Leaders: Establish and enforce policies supporting sustainable development, climate justice, and human rights. Immediate Actions 1. Reduce energy consumption and waste. 2. Invest in renewable energy sources. 3. Support reforestation and conservation efforts. 4. Promote sustainable land use practices. 5. Demand climate action from policymakers. A United Front for Collective Climate Action By working together, we can: 1. Protect our children's future. 2. Preserve natural resources. 3. Ensure social justice. 4. Foster economic growth. 5. Rejuvenate our planet. Together, we can create a safer, fairer, cleaner, greener, and more sustainable world. The future of our planet depends on it. #COP29 #COP29Azerbaijan #Leadership #Sustainability #Education #Awareness #CollectiveResponsibility #CollectiveClimateAction #EveryoneMatters #EveryActionMatters #WeCare #GenerationRestoration #OurCommonFuture

🌍 With just one day to go until #COP29 kicks off here in Baku, I’m reflecting on my journey in sustainability and climate action—a path that began at #ADAUniversity. It was there, through social responsibility events and projects, that I first became inspired by the potential we all have to make a difference. As my career progressed, so did my interest in sustainability. Working in the drilling industry was an eye-opener, reminding me of the impact our industries can have on the planet and our responsibility to innovate sustainably. Now, in the space industry🚀, I’ve seen how #spacetechnologies can become game-changers in climate action. From monitoring deforestation and greenhouse gases to enabling efficient agricultural practices, space technologies allow us to track and respond to climate changes in ways that weren’t possible before. I feel proud to see #Baku host such an important event. Wishing all participants good luck and hoping for fruitful discussions and impactful outcomes. 🌱🚀 #cop29 #sustainability #climatechange

One Day to Go! It is time to take urgent #climateaction at the #COP29 based on global solidarity finding effective, open and inclusive solutions to address the challenges of #climatechange #Digital innovations can play a critical role as key enablers & accelerators of climate solutions and by enhancing the #transparency #accountability of global & national climate policies. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eg7j6kJh

The COP29 Presidency has arrived in Cali, Colombia, for COP16, a pivotal summit that aims at charting a pathway to conserve and safeguard the biodiversity of our planet. This is an important milestone in the in the lead up to #COP29 in Baku, where countries will come together to enable tangible action in our fight against #climatechange and a more prosperous future for our planet. #COP29 #COP29Azerbaijan #COP16 #COP16Colombia

The $3 billion allocated for sustainable development of glaciers and mountains in Asia is a significant step forward. In Ladakh, where over approximately 20% of the region is glaciated, including the iconic Siachen Glacier—the world’s longest glacier outside the polar regions—this funding could drive impactful change. Spanning an area of approximately 60k square kilometers, Ladakh’s glacial landscapes are critical for water resources and biodiversity. Let’s see how much of this funding can be secured for Ladakh to support its unique environment and ensure the sustainable future of its fragile ecosystems. COP29 Azerbaijan
