This week is #WUF13, “Housing the world: Safe & resilient cities & communities.”
~3 billion people lack safe housing, but the housing crisis will not be solved by building more units alone. Instead, #cities must decide where, how & for whom we build.

🥛When it comes to environmental impact, not all milks are equal. Look at this chart, for example: Data shows cow’s milk produces roughly 3 times more emissions than plant-based options.
🌎The good news is that we don't need to choose between protein and the planet. Options like pea milk and soy milk provide a protein-rich alternative while reducing our impact.

🌳😌🌇The cooling power of trees starts with shade.
When surfaces like pavement, rooftops and buildings are exposed to direct sunlight, they absorb and store heat, releasing it back into the air long after the sun goes down. Trees interrupt that process. They shade sidewalks, streets and people, preventing surfaces from heating up in the first place. They also cool the surrounding air through evapotranspiration, the release of water vapor from leaves.

🎥 2025 #TreeCoverLoss data analysis in 7 charts.
Our latest analysis of annual tree cover loss data from Global Land Analysis & Discovery laboratory at the University of Maryland (UMD GLAD) shows a 36% drop in tropical primary rainforest loss, an encouraging sign that strong policies and enforcement can work.
But tropical primary forest loss is still 46% higher than a decade ago, and climate-driven fire is a growing threat to forests worldwide.

🌳OUT NOW: The latest data on #TreeCoverLoss from @UMD_GLAD, available on @globalforests.
Tropical primary rainforest loss fell 36% in 2025 from the record high of 2024. The findings suggest that strong policies and enforcement can curb forest loss. However, climate-driven fires are a dangerous new normal, threatening to reverse recent gains.

Every day, millions of children ride to school in diesel buses that expose them to pollution linked to serious health issues.
And replacing those buses with electric models has benefits that go far beyond a quieter ride and cleaner air.
From creating manufacturing jobs to building a resilient electric grid, learn about what electric school buses can offer👇 bit.ly/4u5FJLs

Estudo do World Resources Institute mostra que o desmatamento global caiu 36% em 2025, puxado principalmente pela redução registrada no Brasil.
Desde 2023, retomamos políticas ambientais, fortalecemos órgãos de fiscalização e controle e estabelecemos parceria com os municípios em que o problema era mais grave. Como resultado, registramos queda de 50% no desmatamento na Amazônia nos últimos três anos, após aumento expressivo registrado em anos anteriores. Nossa meta é chegar ao desmatamento zero até 2030.
Um trabalho que preserva os nossos biomas e que mostra o Brasil como exemplo de preservação ambiental para o mundo.
