While #cities are responsible for an estimated 75% of all carbon emissions globally, they are also vulnerable to #climatechange 🌆🌍

#Urban nature can simultaneously reduce the carbon footprint of cities and increase their #resilience 🌳

Even though #cities in lower-income countries contribute much less to global GHG emissions, if they don’t act fast enough to moderate their emissions trajectories, there can be no successful global achievement of net zero by 2050. Learn more: https://t.co/VFf52tCZne https://t.co/ckQBQHo0B3

RT @WRIRossCities: 🔥With extreme heat, flooding & inequity on the rise, #cities need to know their greatest risks & how to address them.

That's why we worked w/ @shiftcities & @Cities4Forests to build #CityMetrics, a new tool that offers data for 🏙️ 60+ cities.
