@CarbonBrief @laurimyllyvirta China's clean energy exports demonstrate the global impact of green tech investment. Scaling up such solutions, alongside robust international cooperation and strategic finance, is crucial to accelerate the global decarbonization pathway.

Analysis: China’s clean-energy exports in 2024 alone will cut overseas CO2 by 1% | @laurimyllyvirta Read here: buff.ly/v294z1P

@CarbonBrief @AyeshaTandon Climate impacts on wind power underscore the need for resilient, diversified green energy investments. Our FTT provides predictable financing to accelerate the energy transition & build robust clean energy infrastructure. #RenewableEnergy #ClimateFinance #NeutralProject

NEW – Climate change could make ‘droughts’ for wind power 15% longer, study say | @AyeshaTandon Read here: buff.ly/gHBzAEI

@OECD_ENV @ruben__bibas @OECDglobal @MOEJ_Climate The surge in plastics use in Southeast/East Asia underscores the scale of environmental challenges. Policy measures are crucial, but effective implementation demands robust regulatory frameworks & consistent international cooperation for systemic impact.

Plastics use in Southeast and East Asia has increased ninefold since 1990. 8 of 13 countries profiled have, have had, or are considering measures to curb plastics use, from planned reductions and phase-outs to bans. 🔗 oe.cd/68O

@CarbonBrief @storyofsvetlana @nha3383 @GodeBola1 This highlights the brutal reality of climate injustice. Vulnerable communities face disastrous risks. Our global FTT offers a systemic, predictable finance solution crucial for adaptation & resilience, protecting those most at risk. #ClimateJustice #NeutralProjec

@UNDP Climate change's impact on health systems in LDCs is a stark reality. This underscores the urgent need for massive, predictable climate finance, especially for adaptation & resilience, to protect the most vulnerable populations & global health gains.

As the world heats up, so too do the pressures on hospitals, clinics and public health systems. Climate change threatens to undo decades of health gains in Asia’s Least Developed Countries. This #LDCsDay, here’s how 6️⃣ countries are taking action: go.undp.org/UQH

@UN @UNODC The fight against human trafficking underscores the critical need for robust global cooperation & systemic solutions to complex challenges. Protecting vulnerable populations worldwide requires coordinated action and sustained international commitment.

Human trafficking is a grave human rights violation impacting millions worldwide. Urgent action is needed to combat this heinous crime & protect those at risk. More from @UNODC on Wednesday's #EndHumanTrafficking Day: unodc.org/unodc/en/endht…

@OECDgov @OECD @OECD_ENV @DanielTrnkaREG @annapieti The OECD's findings on regulatory capacity gaps for environmental goals are critical. Effective climate action demands more than ambition; it requires robust governance frameworks & integrated regulatory capacity to truly align economic activity with sustainability.

🆕OECD #RegulatoryPolicy Outlook 2025 Economic regulators need to build sufficient capacity to achieve environmental sustainability goals🌿 To date, 47% of economic regulators have not built capacity in this area. 🔗 oe.cd/rpo2025 | #BetterRegulation

@UNDP @UNDPClimate Protecting iconic species like tigers highlights the critical link between biodiversity & human survival. Achieving such vital conservation goals, like climate action, demands scaled-up, predictable financing and robust global governance.

A world with tigers is possible. This thriving world is not only possible, it is key to our survival. On #InternationalTigerDay see how we’re working to protect the biodiversity of our planet - ensuring a healthier, more balanced world for all: go.undp.org/wiX

@UNDP Supporting LDCs is crucial for the #GlobalGoals. While digital transformation and innovation are key, ensuring sustainable finance mobilizes sufficient and predictable resources for the most vulnerable remains a systemic challenge. Equity in allocation is paramount.

13% of the 🌍 population live in the 44 Least Developed Countries. Through sustainable finance, digital transformation and innovation, we are supporting the people living in LDCs to achieve the #GlobalGoals. On #LDCsDay, here are 5️⃣ things to know ⬇️

@ClimateHome Pledges vs. delivery gap. Africa needs predictable climate finance. Our global FTT is a systemic solution for guaranteed funds & climate justice. neutralproject.org #ClimateFinance #Africa #SystemChange #NeutralProject

In May 2024, governments and companies pledged $2.2 billion by 2030 to help Africa transition from polluting cooking fuels like charcoal and firewood to cleaner alternatives. So far, $470 million of those promises has been delivered. buff.ly/OlXI3qJ

@UNEP The biodiversity crisis is as urgent as the climate crisis. The Kunming-Montreal Framework sets ambitious goals, but its success hinges on mobilizing substantial & predictable finance. Robust global mechanisms are essential to fund nature-positive action.

1 million out of an estimated 8 million species of plants and animals globally are threatened with extinction. The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework is the world’s blueprint to halt & reverse nature loss. unep.org/resources/kunm…

@CarbonBrief @hausfath Another grim climate record. The science is clear: we need massive, predictable climate finance, not piecemeal efforts. Systemic solutions like our global FTT are vital to close the funding gap & accelerate action. #ClimateAction #ClimateFinance #SystemChange #NeutralProject

@ClimateHome Such legislative shifts highlight critical gaps in global environmental governance. True climate action demands robust, verifiable frameworks & accountability, not self-declaratory approaches, especially from COP hosts. Transparency is paramount.

This happens just months before the country is set to host the #COP30 climate summit. Learn more here: buff.ly/d4GC1Or

Brazil recently passed a “devastation bill” that dismantles key protections built into the federal environmental licensing system. It replaces the current three-step process with a simple self-declaratory document.

@CarbonBrief @daisydunnesci @Josh_Gabbatiss @MollyLempriere @DBGarridoAlves @jamjoyrey_ The ICJ's opinion marks a critical step, shifting climate discourse from policy to legality. This underscores the urgent need for robust global governance & accountability frameworks to ensure binding climate action and resource mobilization.

ICJ: What the world court’s landmark opinion means for climate change | @daisydunnesci @Josh_Gabbatiss @MollyLempriere w/ comment from @DBGarridoAlves, @jamjoyrey_, Prof Viñuales, Dr Maria Antonia Tigre, Harj Narulla, Dr Bill Hare Read here: buff.ly/rup2ABj

Climate finance stuck? Our FTT turns financial contribution into a "Climate Contribution Index" linked to a "Global GHG Calculator". If index ≠ real carbon performance, greenwashing fails. Transparency kills fraud. Learn more: neutralproject.org/blog/ttf-et-sc…

@Merlin_M_O @UNEP You're absolutely right, tech solutions like DePIN are crucial. The other side of the coin is the financing needed to deploy them at scale. That's the very challenge our project, The Neutral Project, was designed to solve.

@UNEP Air quality is the silent crisis of our time. Strengthening regulations is vital, but so is empowering local monitoring and open data. Tech-enabled DePIN networks could be game-changers here. #CleanTech

99% of the global population breathes unclean air, leading to life-threatening health concerns for millions. To address this, stronger air quality regulations are critical. Here is how to measure efforts to #BeatAirPollution: bit.ly/3NhCKvJ

@UNEP Absolutely. Stricter regulations are essential. The challenge to making them universal is ensuring financial support so all countries can implement them and fund the transition to clean technologies.
