Some call it the lungs, others the heart of the planet. 💙

The @IPCC_CH's latest ocean report has grim news for coastal and island communities: extreme sea-level events that once occurred every 100 years could happen annually by 2050.
But #NatureBasedSolutions can still help, if we act now. #SROCC bit.ly/2l5lnVj

Exactly - urban green spaces can improve health outcomes and social cohesion, but science-based implementation is essential. @wef bit.ly/2kD5Cod

Natural climate solutions are critical to addressing climate change, but they are underdeployed & underfunded. Orgs like @nature_org and leaders like @GeorgeMonbiot & @GretaThunberg are showing the world it’s not too late—nature can make all the difference.bit.ly/2kSIK4t

The findings in the upcoming #IPCC ocean and ice report are expected to be dire. But the last thing we need is panic that leads to paralysis.
Let's turn our concerns into ambitious action: links.nature.org/8vx57 #SROCC

The message from @UN's recent reports couldn't be clearer: business as usual is a threat to climate, biodiversity, land and ocean.

And it goes way beyond perceptions of health! Lots of studies now showing quantifiable links between nature and health outcomes, although the quality and strength of evidence varies among the particular nature/health pathways.

Excited to see the appropriation by Congress for money to increase community resilience, rather than just reconstruction. Let's just hope the program is implemented well eenews.net/climatewire/20…

An important new paper on income and heat wave risk in dozens of US cities. I feel scooped somewhat, as I am working with USFS to map trees and ecosystem service provision for hundreds of US cities, but we aren't quite done yet npr.org/2019/09/03/754…
