Africa is responsible for only a fraction of global greenhouse gas emissions but suffers disproportionately from climate change. This disparity highlights the urgent need for targeted climate action and adaptation strategies, particularly in vulnerable regions.
Reena Ghelani spotlights the advancement of the #EarlyWarningsForAll initiative, supporting the United Nations and its partners' call to integrate climate change measures into national policies, strategies, and planning.
The recurring natural phenomenon of El Niño has brought the critical importance of climate adaptation into sharper focus, underscoring how interconnected and vulnerable our global ecosystems and societies are to climate variability.
The World Meteorological Organization's latest report on the #StateOfClimate in Africa shows that the rate of temperature increase in Africa has accelerated in recent decades, with weather- and climate-related hazards becoming more severe. And yet financing for climate adaptation is only a drop in the ocean of what is needed.
Only we can make it happen, and we have to act now.
