2020 was not only the year of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was also
the year of intensifying climate change: high
temperatures, floods, droughts, storms, wildfires
and even locust plagues. Strong action is needed
now to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to meet the
Paris Agreement goals of holding global warming
this century to well below 2°C and pursuing
1.5°C. The UNEP Adaptation Gap Report
2020 looks at where the world stands in
planning, financing and implementing adaptation
actions. It finds that while nations have advanced
in planning, more financing is needed to scale up
adaptation projects so they can help protect
against climate impacts such as droughts, floods
and sea-level rise. Public and private finance for
adaptation must be stepped up urgently, along with
faster implementation. Want to know more? Watch
our Ask A Scientist session to

We need urgent #ClimateAction to close the

The @UNEP #AdaptationGap
Report: nations need to urgently step up action to
adapt to the new climate reality or face serious
costs, damages and losses. Public and private
finance for adaptation must increase, along with
faster implementation. http://bit.ly/3igbUU7
New
#AdaptationGap Report from @UNEP: Huge
gaps remain in finance for developing countries
& bringing adaptation projects to the stage
where they bring real protection against climate
impacts. More on the challenges we face &
the #ClimateAction we need. http://bit.ly/3nzBTqz
