🌊Today is World Ocean Day 🌊
A recently published GRI policy report has identified the co-design of a blue carbon market as part of measures to scale up financing for protecting and restoring mangroves in the Philippines through improved management of marine protected areas.
How are impacts from extreme weather events linked to climate change? How much responsibility do large emitters such as companies or countries carry? How do scientists go about calculating these things & how is it then interpreted by lawyers in climate litigation cases? 🌪️ ⚖️
The May issue of LSE Research for the World magazine is out now.
It features a list of books on sustainable economics recommended by researchers including @oliverjharman.bsky.social @lsegeography.bsky.social @tpicatlse.bsky.social @granthamlse.bsky.social @gsos-lse.bsky.social @lselaw.bsky.social 👇
Themes of mental health, technology and multi-hazard approaches took centre stage at @egu.eu earlier this month.

“This carbon budget is a vital contribution to the UK’s efforts to stop the growing impacts of climate change by reaching net zero emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases."
Lord Stern and the Grantham Research Institute have commented on the Government's Seventh Carbon Budget.
New report out today for #BiodiversityDay examines how funding can be mobilised to protect mangroves and to maximise benefits for local communities in the Philippines.

China’s model of governance over climate action is developing: where before the country used policy plans rather than laws, it has now adopted a new Environmental and Ecological Code. Carol Yuen and Catherine Higham explore the contents of the Code.
Policy and financial interventions to support the more efficient recycling of batteries in India can turn a potential critical mineral and waste-management crisis into a strategic energy-security advantage, argue Prasad Ashok Thakur and Labanya Prakash Jena in our latest commentary.
Climate change litigation is no longer a fringe concern. It is a rising climate-related risk for companies, but investor views differ on the scale of the risk facing their assets, writes Tiffanie Chan.
