#ClimateChange is causing more water insecurity, which is harming mental health. Like food insecurity, water insecurity has been linked to depression, anxiety, and increased rates of violence. More from @axios: bit.ly/3Uf8DpE

#ClimateChange is threatening the survival of urban trees: “Heat and drought force trees to spend energy surviving that would otherwise go to regeneration, growth or fighting off disease and pests...’ The stresses become compounded.’” More: bit.ly/3OHTA6E

Wells in California are drying up at a record pace due to #climatechange, forcing many residents to rely on bottled water to survive. We need to take #climateaction now to protect drinking water. Read more: wapo.st/3Vz10eF

Colorado’s Lake Powell is drying up due to a #climatechange-intensified drought, posing a threat to the over 4.5 million people who rely on Glen Canyon Dam for electricity generation. More from @washingtonpost: wapo.st/3FtaL90

Unless serious action is taken to limit emissions and curb #climatechange, extreme heatwave events – like the 2021 Pacific Northwest heat wave that killed hundreds – will become more frequent. @Ben_Geman and @afreedma report: bit.ly/3ATCZap

A recent @Nature study found more than half of infectious diseases can be aggravated by #climatechange. Curbing emissions is vital to protect public health. More from @CC_Yale: bit.ly/3VvMZ1k

From @PopSci: #ClimateChange is expected to strengthen El Niño and La Niña events by 2030, increasing the frequency of extreme weather events like floods and droughts. The U.S. must do more to combat climate change and protect against extreme weather: bit.ly/3EKsDur

Following #COP27, Citi Research’s ESG team offers five points shaping its 2023 outlook and 10 factors that could help turn climate change goals into realities. Investors will be key, and now have better data for making more informed decisions. on.citi/3VLpwth

We're getting closer! Meridian Wind will come online soon, which means the park's 77 turbines will be generating enough clean energy to power more than 78,000 Michigan homes. Learn more about this project at empoweringmichigan.com/meridianwind. #RenewableEnergy #WindEnergy

.@NOAAResearch found the Arctic Circle warmed 4x faster than the rest of the planet, which will raise sea levels worldwide, change how heat and water circulate, and may influence extreme weather events like heat waves and rainstorms. More from @zhonggg: nyti.ms/3BySDIB

From @Nature: In order to limit global warming below 1.5°C this century, countries need to create more ambitious goals for curbing their emissions for 2030 and beyond. An economy-wide #carbonprice can help the U.S. hit our #netzero goals. More: go.nature.com/3ttDt2S

#ClimateChange is fueling a public health crisis as increased extreme weather causes increased rates of heat stroke, breathing disorders, & mental health disorders. The U.S. must take action to stop climate change & protect public health. More in @sciam: bit.ly/3AgOKHI

To protect the #climate, we’re changing – in ways that might surprise you… Watch the video and learn more about our #transformation towards #netzero2050. More information how we change for climate: in.basf.com/qxztcah

Countries are failing to live up to their climate pledges, endangering efforts to curb emissions and #climatechange. The U.S. must take more aggressive #climateaction and instate an economy wide #carbonprice to reach our #netzero goals. Read more: wapo.st/3fKpmmw
