Last month, the UN Climate Change body (the UNFCCC) announced the cancellation of its annual regional climate weeks, which are important forums for identifying #ClimateSolutions. Their cancellation should impact us all. That’s why Louise Olivier, our Head of Portfolio for Climate Governance and Society, is advocating for their return. “We all see the immense value in important platforms such as the annual Climate Week in New York City, and how climate stakeholders attend in great numbers. We also see how strikingly underrepresented people from places outside the US and Europe are at these global north events. Securing the regional climate weeks as an immutable part of the climate calendar would go a long way to balancing this deficit.” Read Louise’s full statement on Devex below 👇 https://lnkd.in/eSUjsNiq  #PeopleAndPlanet #ClimateChange

It is imperative that you put an end to deforestation throughout Europe and South America. Prior to taking on the heroic role!
