When addressing the climate crisis, the focus often centers on carbon dioxide emissions & methane.

Yet nitrous oxide is 300 times more potent & remains active in the atmosphere for more than 100 years.

Urgent action is needed to #BeatNitrogenPollution : unep.org/interactives/b…

Countries must step up their joint efforts to reduce nitrogen waste by 2030.

From addressing the sources of nitrogen pollution to adopting a strategy to manage nitrogen at every step of its cycle, discover the different ways to #BeatNitrogenPollution : unep.org/interactives/b…

Nutrient pollution threatens drinking water, endangers health and kills ecosystems☠️

European Commission promised a plan to address this. We must:

✅embrace #agroecology
✅reduce #FoodWaste
✅shift to #SustainableDiets

Where is #INMAP ⁉️

Dr. Chris Malley SEI Research highlights the importance of implementing NDCs. In Nigeria, implementing the NDC will see 30,000 fewer people dying from air pollution in addition to benefits of reducing climate change. Great session at Climate & Clean Air Coalition meeting in Bangkok.

CCAC Science Advisory Panel member Dr. Chandra Venkataraman presents on the growing scientific case for action on short-lived climate pollutants. youtube.com/watch?v=Cuxv4O…

I love my job so much. I love the people I work with. I want them to be paid fairly regardless of their gender or race. I want manageable workloads so that they can spend time with the ones they love. I want them to be on secure contracts. 1/

Heiner Gröschner (Bio Land) stressed the differentiation of yield between conventional farming and #organic farming is also linked to not using synthetic #pesticides in organic. Proper fertilization CAN solve the #yieldgap .

Josette Garnier ' #Organic IS NOT less productive, organic farmers who use a lot of fertilizers can harvest as much as conventional ones. If we combine #fertilizers reduction with a change of diet (less meat and more vegetables), the gap in terms of food production can be solved.'

New Climate & Clean Air Coalition African Integrated Assessment of Air Polluton and Climate Change also shows how N pollution N2O (40%), NH3 (67%) and NOx (80%) could be significantly reduced under the Agenda 2063 Scenario by 2030 and 2063

Essential reading on the pathways to sustainable development through tackling #airpollution in Africa. Applaud the scientists from across Africa that led this crucial work 💪🏾 ccacoalition.org/en/resources/s…

Out now! Our new report with UN Environment Programme African Union shows how African leaders can:

👩‍🍼Prevent 200K premature deaths/year by 2030 (880K/year by 2063)
🌫️Cut CO2 emissions 55% + CH4 emissions 74% by 2063
🌱Improve food security
🌡️Stay below 1.5
