Our hearts are broken. We @UNEP mourn the loss of so many @UN @UNRWA colleagues. We echo the calls for #HumanitarianCeasefire. We are also deeply aware that the toxic trail of war impacts people and the environment for generations after the guns have gone silent.
Devastated. Over 100 @UNRWA colleagues confirmed killed in 1 month. Parents, teachers, nurses, doctors, support staff. @UNRWA is mourning, Palestinians mourning, Israelis mourning. Ending this tragedy needs #Humanitarianceasefire now.

No, eating organic veg isn't better for you. BUT organic is more profitable for farmers & improves some measures of soil health (eg microbial activity). Organic farmers are trying to figure out how to grow food with fewer inputs, and we need that. news.harvard.edu/gazette/sto…

Striking, stark frontpage of the Guardian today... "Scientists stunned by planet's record Sept heat" "I'm still struggling to comprehend how a single year can jump so much compared to previous years"

What every climate scientist will tell you: Record-breaking extreme weather events of 2023 are expected at this level of warming. The impacts on people are more severe than expected. To keep things from getting worse, we need to stop burning fossil fuels & speed up adaptation.

“Specifically, we propose (1) using an inclusive typology of values, (2) accessing the extensive portfolio of available valuation methods, and (3) engaging a range of leverage points that can be acted on for transformative change.”
