Your actions are incredibly impactful. “Analysis reveals that individual and household actions have the potential to produce roughly 25–30 percent of the total emissions reductions needed to avoid dangerous climate change (>1.5°C rise).” Learn more here: https://hubs.li/Q02Fg5ZZ0

"How to Avoid a Climate Disaster" by Bill Gates is a beacon of clarity in a sea of climate data. With so much information out there, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the numbers. But Gates' book breaks it down in a way that's easy to understand and incredibly insightful. One of the key takeaways is the impact assessment of climate initiatives from the perspective of whether or not it moves the needle. 52 billion tons in GHG emissions every year - what percentage impact does an initiative have on this number? Gates' insights on the concept of the "green premium" – the additional cost of clean energy solutions compared to fossil fuels is crucial for understanding the challenges and opportunities ahead. Here’s an article that summarizes the book really well - it's an essential read IMO: https://lnkd.in/gRhiHQgH #climatechange #sustainability #billgates #bookrecommendation

In our latest Trendline piece, Will Nichols and James Lockhart Smith take a deep dive into Verisk Maplecroft's #ClimateHazard index to look at the exposure of major emitters to climate impacts. The key takeaway that "unless the current emissions trajectory changes, 13 of the 30 countries responsible for almost 90% of carbon pollution could be facing some of the severest impacts of climate change, especially from heat" is a major reminder that we must find the diplomatic path to ensure a concerted, truly global response to #ClimateChange. In this #NewColdWar or #StrategicCompetition phase shaping the #NewWorldOrder it is imperative to find areas of #ManagedCooperation across the spectrum. The strategy of #ActiveNonAlignment currently being pursued by numerous large #EmergingEconomies could serve as the bridge between #CompetingPowers, and this research shows it would be in their collective future interest to do so.

Reposting... Based on recent findings, there is a higher level of concern about climate change than is commonly believed. This is demonstrated in the data published by Hannah Ritchie on March 25, 2024, which shows that a majority of individuals in every country surveyed support taking action on climate change. Nevertheless, it appears that the general public persistently underestimates the actual proportion of people who hold this view, as stated by Hannah Ritchie. https://lnkd.in/gGUN2aN4

Fascinating article showing that the percentage of people who care about climate change is larger than what we *think* the percentage of people who care about climate change is. It's time to focus less on convincing the ever shrinking group of skeptics that there's a problem, or that humans are causing it, and instead focus the discussion on what's working and what more we can do to accelerate the transition to clean energy. Humanity has proven before we can come together to fight a global threat when we work together. The majority in all countries agree that change is needed, it's time to focus our efforts on how. https://lnkd.in/gRveDvFm #climatechange #ghg #policy

New research reveals that whether you call it “climate change,” “global warming,” or something else doesn’t have a significant impact on public concern or action. What really matters is how the issue is communicated, focusing on the tangible effects people can relate to in their daily lives. Messaging that emphasizes urgency, local relevance, and solutions drives greater engagement. Read more about the latest findings on climate communication and how we can better inspire action: https://lnkd.in/g9bQgnqN
Research shows that we should call climate change what it is

More people than you think CARE for climate action - finally, I might add! However, people across the world, and the political spectrum, underestimate levels of support for climate action. This “perception gap” matters. Governments will change policy if they think they have strong public backing. Companies need to know that consumers want to see low-carbon products and changes in business practices. We’re all more likely to make changes if we think others will do the same. Thank you Karin Aue for bringing this article to our attention. #climateactivis #peopleandclimate #climatechange
Great and comprehensive summary of global climate change awareness and the stronger than expected support for mitigation and adaptation efforts. Good news - a majority of people worldwide recognise climate change as a critical issue requiring immediate action. Surprising - most of us misjudge how others think and feel about this topic and underestimate the widespread support - there is a stronger collective resolve to act on climate change than we might think. It’s now crucial to transition from persuasion to tangible actions - this includes demanding and supporting policy and system level changes, as well as behavioural choices from all of us. “The problem is that we often don’t get into specifics of solutions because we think we still have to convince people that climate change is a problem.” “We need to shift much of the conversation towards solutions — what they are, how effective they are, what the benefits might be. That is the current roadblock to reducing emissions, not the recognition that we need to do so. The majority — in all countries — agree.” #climateaction #globalaction https://lnkd.in/dW-niGmN
