Exciting that the @IEA will be tracking 10 key climate commitments. I wish @CleanPowerDave could add sarcastic comments to all of my PowerPoint slides
Today, the @IEA has started tracking progress of all 10 things that every country in the world committed to at @COP28_UAE.
You can't say there's no ambition!?... 🧵

The fossil fuel industry is at the heart of the climate crisis.
The problem is not simply fossil fuel emissions. It’s fossil fuels—period.
Countries must progressively phase them out, moving to leave oil, coal & gas in the ground—and massively boost renewable investments.
Delighted to join @calvertimpcap's board. They have been so influential in creating a more sustainable, inclusive financial system. I am honoured to join them for this next phase in their work.
We're thrilled to announce the addition of @Generationfndt's Grace Eddy to our board of directors. Eddy brings deep experience in #SustainableInvesting & equitable climate solutions that will elevate our work. bit.ly/3qJTfII

Action to halt #ClimateChange is being held up by a range of ‘hidden handbrakes’ that the public are broadly unaware of.
At "Hidden handbrakes – exposing the unseen blockers of climate action" at #LCAW2023, we will shine a light on these blockers. iied.org/hidden-handbrakes-e…

Amazed by how wavy/ extreme this jet stream structure is. Record warm oceans, developing El Nino, Typhoon Mawar wave breaking, climate change ice melt & uneven heating of the Arctic vs mid-latitudes. Excess energy = extremes. And we ain't seen nothing yet. 1/
Amazing research by @SafeJustPlanet Summed up by Joyeeta Gupta: “Our doctor would say the Earth is really quite sick right now in many areas. And this is affecting the people living on Earth. We must not just address symptoms, but also the causes.”

A map worthy of @TerribleMaps from @BBCNews - people might wonder why the US cares so much about an object flying over the the Canadian province of Alaska…

@Wiggle_Sport and @Hermesparcels I am trying to get a parcel I sent to my workplace. The courier was asked to take it to the delivery door (slightly different address) and instead said no one was there. Can’t change address, can’t speak to anyone at Hermes. Pls help!

I used the most infuriating online chat bot at @Hermesparcels that gave absolutely no new information. Then called to speak to the same chat bot. What can I do to update the address to one door over for deliveries door?! (It’s not in the “neighbours” list)
