So, let's start decarbonizing the transport and energy sector and let's receive those benefits; we need them for a better future.

Do you want to read examples of LA countries aming to decarbonize their economy? Please read this thread to find more about the main findings from the DDPLAC project led by @BIDCambioClima and @IDDRI_ThinkTank. Great collaborative work with colleagues and friends.

How odd; all the .png figures are in “dark mode”. Not the way I set it up, but oh well, here’s the main link again with the proper figures sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

More and more countries recognise the benefits of decarbonizing the economy...in CR we know it will bring economic benefits. #GettingToNetZeroLAC report from #theIDB explains that in detail. bit.ly/2TYbuYk

#SouthKorea 🇰🇷 is set to implement a 2050 carbon neutrality goal and end #coal financing following President Moon Jae-in’s landslide victory yesterday. This is a major step for the world’s seventh largest carbon emitter! ow.ly/4IVC50zfW7K #climateaction #netzero

Two key findings (for CRI and likely for other counties): 1.Decarbonization the transport sector requires investments that are compensated in time, bringing financial benefits 2. Benefits in health, reduced congestion and accidents multiply by six the benefits. Must read report.

In Costa Rica, the decarbonization will come with a cost, but it will bring significant benefits that contrast those investments and result in economic benefits for the country and the Costa Ricans. #gettingtonetzero #iadb

The climate emergency is not a science issue obscured by politics, it's a political fight over how to respond to scientifically documented problems. You can't separate the politics from the crisis because the crisis is political to its very core.
