I'm grateful to work in a field I'm passionate about (climate law), but after spending yesterday reading recent IPCC reports and UNEP's Emissions Gap Report 2022, I'm once again sitting with a sense of deep sadness and doom.

I'd love to hear how others in this field (or similarly difficult fields) process/manage this grief, if anyone is interested in sharing

We 💯 coincide with @andersen_inger@twitter.com and @unep@twitter.com's new #EmissionsGap report: an urgent transformation of our economic system is needed to steer humanity away from social & ecological catastrophe.

#ClimateCrisis #Climate #NotOnTrack
#Food #Agriculture
Still this week, the new 2022 #EmissionsGap Report by the United Nations Environment Programme also called for an urgent system-wide transformation to avoid climate disaster. We are not on track to meet the Paris Agreement goals.

Transforming our #FoodSystems is part of it. It can lower emissions and improve sustainability.

Emissions Gap Report 2022

Yet the #EmissionsGap Report 2022: The Closing Window – #ClimateCrisis calls for rapid transformation of societies finds that the international community is falling far short of the Paris goals, with no credible pathway to 1.5°C in place. Only an urgent system-wide transformation can avoid #climate #disaster.

“We had our chance to make incremental changes, but that time is over. Only a root-and-branch transformation of our economies and societies can save us from accelerating climate disaster.”

World headed for #ClimateCatastrophe without urgent action: #UN Secretary-General

“Commitments to #NetZero are worth zero without the plans, policies and actions to back it up. Our world cannot afford any more #greenwashing, fake movers or late movers,” Guterres added. “We must close the #EmissionsGap before #climate catastrophe closes in on us all.”
