The clock is ticking... Countries that have signed the Paris Agreements have one last chance to show true ambition to curb emissions and lower global temperatures - at the same time as halting and reversing nature loss. Our new tool #naturebase can support governments and policy leads to make informed decisions for their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) updates. By leveraging the power of nature, this platform provides critical data and insights to drive impactful climate action. Key features include: - Climate benefit estimates for 20 natural climate solutions pathways - Interactive maps and open-access datasets - Enabling policies and case studies for actionable insights Explore how Naturebase can help shape your climate policies: https://lnkd.in/diYtuF6w #ClimateAction #Sustainability #NatureBasedSolutions #ClimateChange

Nature4Climate aims to increase action on natural climate solutions in support of the 2015 Paris climate agreement.
About us
Nature4Climate is a multi-organization strategic communications platform to help raise the profile of natural climate solutions and catalyse action on the ground. Natural climate solutions are proven ways of storing and reducing carbon emissions in the world’s forests, grasslands and wetlands, and better stewardship of the land also has impact on other critical environmental, social and economic benefits, which are less well understood. These solutions are available immediately, are scalable and can transform key sectors of the global economy, such as forestry and agriculture – and they are available almost everywhere on the planet. Despite the fundamental science being very well understood, action on land use remains much underused as a climate strategy – lacking the funding and attention that has helped kickstart the energy transition. We use creative communications and advocacy to influence international climate policy, national government policy, and private sector action on implementing natural climate solutions between now and 2023. We bring together voices from governments, IGOs and NGOs, and business – underpinned by a steering group with communications and advocacy representation currently from CBD, CI, TNC, the UNDP, WHRC, WRI and WWF.

I wanted to bring attention to Nature4Climate`s app (naturebase.org). Its a great tool to illustrate the potential of nature based climate solutions for a wide range of users, from government’s, communities, or even a parent trying to explain the importance of nature as a climate solution. See the link and video below. Amazing tool. For Norwegians and Scots zoom in and see how important it is to stop draining peat. If you want to look at tropical forests in Brazil pls remember the time element - restoration takes time - best to start with protection! Congratulations and thanks to Lucy Almond and others at Nature4Climate and multiple organisations who have cooperated to put this in place
Are you missing key research to help you plan, fund, and implement climate projects? Today, we were at the Accelerating #NbS Conference in #Zambia, discussing why successful #NaturalClimateSolutions require effective planning supported by robust science, data, and mapping. To support your climate projects with these elements, we launched naturebase.org : a free, scientific data platform that helps you unlock nature’s potential. This platform is aimed at: 🏛 Governments and policymakers: to develop more comprehensive nature and climate plans to achieve 2030 goals. 🛠 Practitioners and technical experts: to identify, analyze, and make informed decisions that account for nature within climate planning and implementation, in line with 2030 goals. 👔 Project managers: to maximize mitigation outcomes by combining different strategies that also safeguard human rights. 🌿 #IndigenousPeoples and local communities: to finance their invaluable stewardship of nature. 💰 Funders: to identify the best projects to invest in.

#opinion The climate crisis is fundamentally a water crisis. The Amazon is experiencing worsening climate impacts, with an increase in droughts and floods due to global warming. Water, not just carbon, plays a crucial role in climate stability, influencing global weather patterns. There is an urgent need for climate solutions that manage water resources and reduce carbon emissions to protect the ecosystems and communities of the Amazon. We recommend reading the opinion article by Dr. Marcia Nunes Macedo, a Senior Scientist at the Woodwell Climate Research Center. In the article, she states, ‘No doubt carbon emissions alter global climate, but the water cycle is the engine that drives it, connecting the land surface, oceans, and atmosphere. Climate warming is now supercharging this engine and intensifying extreme droughts, floods, and water insecurity. The local impacts of climate change highlight the imperative for climate solutions that prioritize water alongside efforts to mitigate carbon emissions.’ For more information, read the full piece here: https://lnkd.in/e-H6N86B #climateaction #watercrisis #naturebasedsolutions #naturepositive

Help raise local voices on this International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples. 📉 Indigenous Peoples protect more than 80% of global biodiversity while representing only 5% of the population. However, they are, more often than not, not rewarded for their invaluable stewardship. Direct funding for tenure rights and forest management of Indigenous Peoples and local communities amounted to less than 1% of international climate development aid in the last decade. 📢 To build a truly nature-positive economy, 30% of all public climate finance for nature-based projects and investments should include direct participation from Indigenous Peoples and local communities, following the targets set by the Global Biodiversity Framework. 📽 Today, learn more about Instituto Zág Araucária, a southern Brazilian organization led by the Xokleng People, involved in the protection of their sacred tree, the Araucaria, which is now at extreme risk of extinction. Winners of the 2023 Equator Prize (UNDP), the institute’s representatives, Carl Gakran and Isabel Gakran, were also members of the nature-positive delegation at COP 28 last year: https://lnkd.in/eZgPzaxG

➕ How can we build a nature-positive economy? Dr. Genevieve Patenaude, PhD (Oxon), CEO and co-founder of Earth Blox, joined the Nature4Climate hub at London Climate Action Week and explained what actions are essential in this journey. She was also one of the speakers at our nature tech event, where we invited four pairs of speakers – one nature tech entrepreneur and one private sector client – to share examples of their work. Their presentations candidly revealed how nature tech is already helping private sector stakeholders meet their climate and nature goals by: 🔸 Monitoring nature remotely; 🔸 Tracking and reducing risk; 🔸 Assessing the performance of nature-based projects; and 🔸 Identifying project potential. 🔗 If you missed the live event, there is an article here with the key takeaways from this section: https://lnkd.in/epsShMhy

Dedicated to restoring the Teluk Semanting Mangrove, an Indonesian village embraces the mantra: “More mangroves, more blessings,” as they plant Rhizophora seedlings. The country holds the third-highest potential globally for carbon sequestration through natural climate solutions*. Today, on the International Day for the Conservation of the Mangrove Ecosystem (UNESCO), we remember that with temperatures rising rapidly, there’s a critical need for solutions that not only sequester carbon but also provide shelter, aid communities in adapting to extreme events, and safeguard ecosystem balance and livelihoods. This short documentary is part of The Nature in Action series, a collaboration with community-led filmmakers from ‘If Not Us Then Who?’. The series showcases stories of individuals and communities at the forefront of nature protection and recovery, emphasizing successful #NatureBasedSolutions and the strong leadership of #IndigenousPeoples and local communities. 🔗 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eKNbJvHi ⁉ Curious about the platform behind these stories? *Naturebase is a new interactive tool that brings together science-based data on nature’s pathways to benefit the climate by showing where, why, and how to implement high-integrity nature-based projects with the highest carbon mitigation impact while improving livelihoods and protecting biodiversity. Save the date for the launch of the platform this Monday, the 28th! #climateaction #mangroves The Nature Conservancy Science The Nature Conservancy
