Labour MPs ordered to sink landmark climate and environment bill
Labour MPs ordered to sink landmark climate and environment bill
Exclusive: Supporters of bill say Labour has already insisted on removal of clauses requiring the UK to meet targets agreed at Cop and other summits
A landmark bill that would make the UK’s climate and environment targets legally binding seems doomed…

Worth a quick read. Straightforward set of points but quite important that where there is insufficient climate adaptation and more broadly, a robust economy (aside from purely climate finance) then risk of insecurity increases, www.diis.dk/en/research/...

And on top of the requirements that directly relate to better managing extreme weather events they need the more fundamental elements of infrastructure (both physical and conceptual) to enable an adequate response.
Some good tidbits here on what is needed for 'early warning for all' to truly be accomplished. Countries like Chad need not just the technical equipment, but the capacity and personnel to maintain it, and to interpret and share the data.

Worrying given that mangroves are regularly cited as a nature-based solution for climate adaptation in many coastal areas. Additionally they provide vital nurseries for many marine species.
“it's a warning for coastal areas worldwide. As #climatechange and extreme events intensify, some mangrove forests may struggle to keep up with sea level rise. The Maldives, as the world's lowest-lying nation, can therefore potentially be the canary in the coal mine." phys.org/news/2024-11...
'Drowning' mangrove forests in Maldives signal global coastal threat, say researchers
Researchers have found evidence that mangrove forests—which protect tropical and subtropical coastlines—are drowning in the Maldives.

Amid Earth's heat records, scientists report another bump upward in annual carbon emissions
Even as Earth sets new heat records, humanity this year is pumping 330 million tons (300 million metric tons) more carbon dioxide into the air by burning fossil fuels than it did last year
