We Don't Have Time

We all know that #WeDontHaveTime to wait for #ClimateAction. ⌛ But what if we could #BuyMoreTime? 🤔 Ingmar Rentzhog shared how tackling methane could make a real difference in fighting #ClimateChange at the Exponential Solutions Stage. at Techarena ZERO. 🐄🎈 Re-watch the full presentation on We Don't Have Time and follow the #BuyMoreTime campaign with a daily live show during COP29 Azerbaijan: https://lnkd.in/eKa9sjRq #COP29 #climateaction #methane #climatecrisis #pollutants TECHARENA .

WE are still IN. WE will always be. WE are part of the Paris Agreement. WE are part of the Earth. WE are One. WE build bridges for climate action beyond borders. WE stand in solidarity with our US friends. WE will never give up. WE are stronger together. Let’s UNITE and ACT. Today is a day of climate grief and sadness. Tomorrow will be a day of hope. The US election result will have a huge impact on the climate diplomacy space just before COP29 but also well beyond that in the lead up to COP30 in Brazil and in the real economy in many countries around the world. Meanwhile climate change is still happening. The climate crisis will not stop for a climate denier. The climate crisis will continue to accelerate. But we are still in. We are united and unstoppable. The energy transition is inevitable and accelerating in many countries, regardless of US political winds. We saw American businesses, states and local governments step up the last time and can expect them to again uphold America’s climate pledge. The show goes on, with or without the White House. Climate multilateralism is in every nation’s self-interest and remains the most effective path to global climate action. Other world powers will leave the US behind. Climate action has become the foundation of common sense policy across the world. The gap left by the US will be filled by other countries. The vital work happening in communities everywhere to regenerate our planet and societies will continue, with a new, even more determined spirit.  What can you do ? 1. SHARE these messages of unity, hope and action 2. INSPIRE If you are already acting on climate change, share an inspiring quote about the work you do with your community. Include your quote here: https://lnkd.in/eu4xwR-j until Friday at 10:00 CET. We are collecting quotes from climate leaders from communities demonstrating hope and climate action at all levels. We will share and amplify soon. 3. UNITE, CONNECT We will be hosting a ⭕️ Circle of Trust to welcome emotions, feelings and thinking on next steps as a community. This is unbranded initiative for ❤️heart-centered collaboration beyond logos and egos, connecting to our shared humanity as One team for One Planet🌎. Everyone welcome.

⚠️🇺🇸 The U.S. election isn't even over yet, but one thing is painfully clear: it's a monumental failure. 🌍 In the midst of a global climate crisis—where every single moment counts—it's staggering that climate barely made it onto the agenda. Not even in one of the world's largest economies is the climate a priority. Is it any surprise we're witnessing the consequences we face today? But maybe—just maybe—this is the wake-up call we desperately need. Perhaps this harsh reality will make us realize that our current system is on a collision course with the planet. Maybe only when we're teetering on the brink of collapse do we truly grasp what's at stake. 💔 It's time to rebuild—from the ground up—toward a world where we live in harmony with nature. Eight years ago, We Don't Have Time was born on the night Trump won his first election. That night, it became crystal clear to me that our leaders weren't treating the climate crisis with the urgency it demands. Now, another eight years later, I've realized it's not just the leaders who need to wake up. 🙏 It's all of us. Many still choose to ignore the climate crisis, acting as if turning a blind eye is somehow a solution. But ignorance won't save us. Action will. There will be a turning point. It's always darkest before dawn. Let's make this the low point from which we rise together. We must start lifting each other up, supporting one another in the fight for our planet. 🌱 I still believe we can turn things around. At #COP29, we'll launch our latest campaign, #BuyMoreTime—because now, more than ever, we need every precious second to tackle this crisis. Facing the possibility of another four years with Trump only underscores our urgency. But remember, with every crisis comes the opportunity for new leadership to emerge. We must be ready. We must act now. ⏳ Time is our most valuable resource, and it's slipping through our fingers. Let's use it wisely. Let's unite and create the change our world so desperately needs. Are you with me? Join us in making a difference.

Partner #COP29 Event invitation! What are the potential benefits of closing the adaptation finance gap? It’s estimated that every $1 a company invests in climate adaptation and resilience can yield $2 to $15 in financial benefits. That’s why Top Tier Impact is hosting an exclusive investment event during COP29 -  gathering asset owners, corporates, global leaders, innovators, and the press to accelerate climate action. They’ll explore how finance, innovation, and collaboration can boost resilience in the face of climate challenges. Will you join us?
