The loss of fertile soil makes land less productive for agriculture, creates new deserts, pollutes waterways and can alter how water flows through the landscape, potentially making flooding more common.#Landdegradationaffectsall

What if… … sea walls, heat-resilient crops and elevated roads could protect the most vulnerable populations from the impacts of climate change? …countries and communities had the funding that they needed to build #resilientsocieties? …we build a healthier, safer and more prosperous future for us all through #climateadaptation? In their National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) under the UNFCCC process, countries develop their strategies to build resilience and attract the needed funding. Find out more:

#Mitigation Strategies VS #Prevention Strategies Looking at climate change from a risk management point of view, mitigation measures aren't enough to have a prosperous future! we must implement more of #prevention strategies than #mitigation strategies! We must focus on the #sources of #greenhousegases to reach #netzeroemissions2050. There are technologies out there that prevent and/or reduce greenhouse gas emissions!

Clear mandates / roles and cross-departmental coordination are essential for effective implementation of #Climate #Change reduction and mitigation actions. ? In PNG, we have multiple regulating systems, levels and sectors to govern or enforce our climate change laws along with other environmental regulations and international standards. The few departments or agencies which I can think of, that have environmental clauses in their laws and regulations are: ? 1. Conservation and Environmental Protection Authority (CEPA as the main regulator) 2.?Climate Change and Development Authority (CCDA) 3.?Department of Petroleum & Energy (DPE) 4.?Mineral Resource Authority (MRA) 5.?Department of Forestry 6.?Department of Fisheries and Marine Resource ? ? Involving multiple regulating departments or agencies often result in overlap and gaps. If CCDA (as it is now) takes the lead role in tackling climate change impacts, then CCDA: - Must be given the full authority with clear legal mandate and sufficient power to take necessary measures to carry out the mandate, - Must be adequately funded to fulfil its mandate as well as personnel with appropriate knowledge, experience and skills, - Must be supported to align its activities with those of other government agencies above to take advantage of synergies and ensure measures are mutually reinforcing and supportive, - Must be politically supported from outside the authority / agency as well as leadership and commitment from within CCDA, - should establish a culture of integrity and safeguards against corruption and undue political influence, including mechanisms for inclusivity and transparency in engaging with both the public and other government agencies (which we’re sure the agency will, under Ms. Sungi’s leadership) Together, let’s tackle climate change and safe our planet. #citizens #CCDA #CEPA #MRA #DPE UN Climate Change

?? Food For Thought: A new map highlights an imbalance—some countries emit far more CO2 than developing nations, which, despite emitting less, often face greater climate challenges. Yet, this also presents a key opportunity for change. This underscores the urgent need for equitable climate policies and sustainable development. ??

Healthy soil is life. It is responsible for producing 95% of our food. It is home to 25% of biodiversity and plays a crucial role in combating climate change by sequestering carbon. On #WorldSoilDay and during #COP16Riyadh, here are 5 things to know about the ground beneath our feet: https://go.undp.org/JUG

The ‘100% Alliance’ led by the government of France, in partnership with the #OceanPanel and coordinated by World Resources Institute, aims to ensure sustainable management of all national ocean areas by 2030. Looking ahead to the UN Ocean Conference in Nice in June, this campaign aims to address climate change, pollution, and overfishing to protect our largest ecosystem.
