🧵I have spent the last three years researching, visiting and writing about land reclamation in the Maldives. Much of that time was spent trapping unassuming friends into dinner conversations about it and taping index cards to my walls to organize my thoughts

At the Bonn Climate Change Conference, we spotted an anti-fossil fuel protest in front of the main plenary where the discussions are taking place. Check out @jessechasing’s preview of the summit⬇️ devex.com/news/special-e… #SB62 #JuneClimateMeetings

COP30 CEO Ana Toni tells Devex’s @jessechasing why we need to think beyond public finance when it comes to facing the challenges that come with climate change. #COP30 #climatefinance

For this special episode of our weekly podcast series, Devex climate reporter @jessechasing sits down with @oumi_kay from the @AfricaAAI, @Prof_PatrickV of the @GCAdaptation, and Tagaloa Cooper of SPREP (@SprepChannel).

Finance is at the top of the #COP29Baku agenda. With small businesses making up 90% of all businesses and up to 60% of emissions, they need financing to adapt to and mitigate the effects of climate change. @CokeHamilton spoke to @jessechasing of @devex: devex.com/news/reporter-…

It's Day 3 of @COP29 and we're inching closer to the negotiations of the hour. I wrote an article breaking down the details of these discussions. Take a look!

Devex has two reporters on the ground in Baku, Azerbaijan, covering the two-week @UN #COP29 climate conference.

@UNFCCC @fionaharvey @NiranjanAjit @devex 🚨 The UK announced its emissions targets @COP29_AZ -- committing to an 81% emissions reduction target. "By committing to this target, and to supporting other countries via the NDC Partnership, the UK is stepping up as a climate frontrunner," said @e3g's Nick Mabey. @devex

The big news today is that the UK will announce its #NDCs — one of the first countries to do so. They say they will cut emissions by 81%, in line with the recommendations of the @UNFCCC . @fionaharvey and @NiranjanAjit got the scoop. theguardian.com/environment/20… @devex
