Indigenous peoples live on the frontlines of climate change. They are the world’s priority as they hold a wide range of linguistic & cultural diversity at the heart of our shared humanity. ℹ️ en.unesco.org/ik-and-cc #OnePlanet #ChangingMindsNotTheClimate

How do you get regular people to care about climate change? Point out what's going to happen to national icons - buildings, monuments or parks - that they really care about @USICOMOSClimate #cop23 #climate

For example, there is policy to preserve #heritage from effects of #climatechange and learning from #heritage for #climate policy. Key issue is how&where to connect #heritage science- nitter.gq/ACCOMPLISSH/status/930…

If you think the historic environment & heritage buildings are bad for climate change mitigation, you're doing it wrong. @walesepa at #COP23
