How can we leverage the ocean in climate efforts to create a better 🌍 for people, climate and nature? 🌊 The #ocean is an essential player in mitigating and adapting to climate change, but the world is currently running behind in utilising the readily available solutions that the ocean offers. New analysis reveals the potential of ocean-based climate solutions for reducing greenhouse gas emissions with the latest science and knowledge and opportunities for action. The ocean has already absorbed up to 93% of excess heat from human-causes and can provide up to 35% of #emission cuts needed in 2050 to keep global temperature rise below 1.5°C. Listen to World Resources Institute Ocean Program Associate Micheline Khan give insights on some things we can do to take meaningful #OceanAction. 👇 Learn more: https://bit.ly/3Prv3U1 #climateaction #naturebasedsolutions
With its ability to absorb up to 30% of human-generated emissions, the ocean is key to understanding the global carbon cycle and thus our future climate: https://loom.ly/W_WeLmg
One of the most promising areas for climate action has been largely overlooked and underinvested to date: the ocean🌊 New research shows that ocean-based climate solutions can deliver up to 35% of the annual greenhouse gas emission cuts needed in 2050 to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees C (2.7 degrees F) — the threshold scientists say is necessary to avert the worst outcomes from climate change. This represents a significant increase from previous estimates, which put the ocean’s potential emissions reductions at around 21% of the total needed by 2050. 7 key opportunities for ocean-based climate action▶️ https://bit.ly/3NJHdHS #ocean #environment #climateaction #climatesolutions #sustainability
Pure Strategies, Inc.'s brand new report on connecting climate and nature strategies was just released today during GreenBiz Group #GreenBiz24. Did you know that just a quarter of the S&P 500 have climate commitments, and only 13 percent of S&P 500 companies have a deforestation-related commitment? The relationship between climate and nature is complex and interconnected. Without protecting and restoring the earth's ecosystems, there is no chance of achieving science-based targets to limit warming, or buffering the impacts of an already disrupted climate. The success of climate strategies is closely linked to the success of nature strategies, and the success of nature strategies is connected to the success of climate strategies. Actions to build resilience through protecting, restoring, and sustainability managing nature are the missing pieces. Thus, corporate climate plans need to shift to connect climate and nature, for mitigation and resilience, a planet-forward strategy.

Stopping the climate crisis can be daunting, but there are ways to make a difference. Speed & Scale has outlined the steps we need to take to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. And now, we can track our progress towards a more sustainable future. Check out the tracker at https://lnkd.in/gr7NUThm. It's a lifeline for solution-minded individuals and a reminder that we still have a long way to go to fix our planet. There's an opportunity in here for everyone to take action #sustainability
💚 Did you know Lindström aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions annually, with the goal of halving emissions by 2030 and achieving net zero by 2050 across its value chain? 🌍 These targets are approved by the Science Based Targets initiative which ensures they are in line with the latest climate science to prevent the worst effects of climate change. 🤝 Lindström understands the importance of working together to preserve our planet for future generations. ❤️ I am so happy to be part of the company who's values and actions align with my own. #Lindström #sustainability #climatechange #netzero2050
Have you ever been in this situation: You're about to make an online purchase, and the company promises to "plant one tree per purchase"? 🌳 Has this influenced your decision to buy from a company? But what’s the true impact of tree-planting initiatives on climate change? Recent studies reveal a complex picture: while trees absorb carbon dioxide, expanding forests could have unforeseen side-effects. 🌿💨 The research underscores the importance of integrating forestation with other climate change mitigation strategies for maximum effectiveness. So, while trees play a role in fighting climate change, they're most effective when part of a holistic sustainability approach. #RegenerativeAgriculture

Earlier this week, the Science Based Targets Network launched the world's first framework for setting science-based targets for nature. The targets are based on the scientific consensus that limiting global warming to 1.5 C cannot be achieved without stopping and reversing nature loss. Everything is connected. Nature has the ability to absorb approximately half of the planet's carbon emissions each year. The latest research indicates that more than half of global GDP is moderately or strongly dependent on nature, and still we threat it like we do. There has never been stronger incentives taking action on nature and climate together has thus never been clearer. So, check it out, but more important: Take action https://lnkd.in/dP5mVCzq
