What a difference a tree makes here in Pondicherry where temperatures range from 22 deg in the ‘cool’ season to 40 deg in the ‘hot’ 🥵 Nature based solutions have such an important role to play in climate adaptation.

Many congratulations to @UNEP on the adoption of the Belém Call to Action on Sustainable and Affordable Housing. The CAA looks forward to supporting implementation of this important initiative. unep.org/technical-high…
