🌽💧 Sustainable aviation fuels are critical for reducing aviation emissions, but cost remains a major barrier. New WRI Climate research explores how corn stover, the stalks, leaves and husks left after harvest, could help power a new generation of cleaner jet fuels: bit.ly/3RIZqdB

🌱 Climate strategy cannot sit on the sidelines of development planning. Abas Mohammed of Ethiopia’s Ministry of Planning and Development explains how Ethiopia builds climate planning into budgets, reforms and national priorities. Full webinar: bit.ly/4uqU0lY

🏘️ The global housing crisis is about more than just building more homes. Where housing is built, who it’s for, and how it’s financed will shape whether cities become healthier, more equitable and more sustainable. #WRIExplains: go.wri.org/world-housin...

⚡ “Economic growth, energy security and climate ambition are not separate agendas.” Venugopal Mothkoor of NITI Aayog shares how India is approaching development and net zero together. Watch the full webinar: bit.ly/4uqU0lY

🌍 Long-term climate strategies can help governments make better decisions today. WRI's Melanie Robinson explains how they can guide investment, align stakeholders and build resilient economies. Watch the full webinar: bit.ly/4uqU0lY

🌍 Progress on climate action is still far too slow. The #StateOfClimateAction 2025 report finds that none of the 45 indicators assessed are currently on track for 2030. Read the report: bit.ly/4owx8y7

AI tools like ChatGPT, navigation apps and streaming platforms feel effortless, drawing information seemingly from thin air. Yet the infrastructure behind them is anything but invisible. #WRIExplains Data centers👉 go.wri.org/data-centers

🌍 Land-use change is a big driver of global warming—deforestation and agriculture alone cause nearly 25% of human-made greenhouse gas emissions. #WRIExplains: The Land-Use Climate Change Feedback Loop 👉 go.wri.org/climate-feed...

Carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are rapidly warming the planet. But where do they come from? 💨 Insights from #ClimateWatch explain which sectors emit the most GHGs: bit.ly/4d9MF2B

🌍 From restoring forests to new technologies that pull CO₂ directly from the air, what does carbon removal actually mean and why does it matter now? #WRIExplains: go.wri.org/carbon-removal

“Historic, systemic and dynamic.” Following the Santa Marta Conference, WRI’s Nick Robins shares why this new alliance of 57 countries could mark a major shift toward cleaner, more resilient economies 🌍⚡ Read more: bit.ly/42FfGOS
