Lovely to see US leadership on this topic close to my heart (and work)! I hope we in the MDB world can continue—and scale—our work to support resilience to extreme heat. Watch this space for more to come on that front…

#COP16Colombia

For a nature investment to stack up to a “standard” one, it has to be a carbon sink, promote climate resilience, enhance biodiversity—and look good while doing it. Is it any wonder we refer to nature in the feminine.

Tomorrow (9th Dec) at 15:00 (Dubai) in the RCREEE pavilion at #cop28 join me, the Union for the Mediterranean, and others
to discuss the water-energy-food and ecosystem nexus, and learn more about the EBRD’s Blue Mediterranean Partnership.

Super proud of my advisee Dr. Alex Maxim for this new open access paper in ERL, quantifying how deep residential efficiency can keep people safer & reduce generating capacity/grid infra needed under decarb. We find efficiency can cut peak demand by 1/2, at costs competitive with firm supply.

What is the role of the EBRD in halting and reversing biodiversity loss? Come find out at 9:30am Saturday 9 December at #cop28, and also hear about what other organisations are doing to support the global nature positive goal.
