[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] 👉 Addressing the financial gap is a priority 🪙 As opportunities & financial flows aren't equally distributed, finance provision & access need to change to allow the #implementation of climate ambitions 🧵5/7
February 10, 2025 at 1:16 PM
[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] The #ocean is a source of solutions to address #climatechange, #biodiversity loss & #sustainabledevelopment💡
Ocean & coastal solutions are central to adaptation, resilience - BUT they are also grossly underfunded 💰🧵4/7
February 10, 2025 at 1:16 PM
[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] 👉 Coastal territories are already impacted by #climatechange & need accelerated #adaptation efforts 🏙️ If #mitigation remains the priority, #adaptation is not an option ⚠️🧵3/7
February 10, 2025 at 1:16 PM
[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] 👉 The ocean suffers from the combined effects of #climatechange & human activities. 🔬According to the @IPCC_CH, limiting warming to 1.5°C requires GHG emissions to peak before 2025 at the latest and to be reduced by 43% by 2030⚠️ 🧵2/7

[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] Rod Braun, @ConservationOrg 👉: To incentivise hybrid solutions and long-term adaptation, we need to work across finance & policy. Financing coastal cities’ adaptation is new field, but there are many opportunities to untap

[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] Marine de Bazelaire @HSBC: “There is a huge gap between finance provision and the needs of coastal cities for #adaptation”💰Private investment involvement is insufficient despite the considerable cost avoidance from #adaptation projects

[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] Investment Protocol on financing coastal cities’ adaptation main findings:
🤝 Create a dialogue space between investors & cities
🏙️ Pooling cities’ projects

[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] @KateStrachan @ICLEIAfrica 🏙️👇
- When we think about #coastaladaptation, we need to think beyond coastal zones
- There is no unique guideline: every city has its own challenges
- Cities’ basic services delivery are already impacted by #climatechange

[#COP27 🌊 #OceanActionDay] Mr. Robert Kay @HelpMeAdapt @Arup 👉 Best practices thinking in #CoastalAdaptation means providing multi-stakeholder benefits and considering the long-term impacts of strategies
