The world will not meet the urgent and increasingly desperate need to limit global warming without universities - universities that educate cohort after cohort of sustainably-minded leaders with the green skills required to re-shape the economy and universities that carry out the research to invent new solutions to the climate crisis. As world leaders begin to gather for #cop28 in the #UAE, here is Times Higher Education's list of the world's leading universities for taking climate action - meeting United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #13. Congratulations to the leaders in Australia and Canada: University of Tasmania, UNSW, Victoria University, The University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University. You can view all 735 ranked universities here: https://lnkd.in/dtPJCBuq Join the Global Sustainable Development Congress, where we unite universities with the businesses, governments and civic society organisations that will drive the changes needed to meet the #SDGs, in Bangkok next year.

While I'm very interested in knowlege-based economy, knowledge-based economy and green economy are very interconnected. In a green economy, there is a focus on sustainability and reducing environmental impact. The knowledge-based economy, on the other hand, emphasizes the importance of knowledge, colllaboration, and innovation. By combining these two, we can promote sustainable practices, develop green technologies, and create new opportunities for growth and development. It's all about using knowledge to drive positive change for the environment and society

COP28 UAE is a reminder that higher education needs a mandate to combat the climate crisis and support the planet.

[Climate Change Certificate] 🌎💚 ________________________ Dear community, It is with great pride that I share today my recent achievement: the completion of an online certificate entitled "Climate Change: from Learning to Action" from the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and UN CC:Learn 🌍 This programme allowed me to dive right into the heart of climate change issues, helping me to: 🔍 Gain an in-depth understanding of what climate change is. 🌦️ Identify the negative consequences of climate change and how we can adapt. 🌿 Discover the opportunities associated with low-carbon development. 💰 Learn how to plan and finance climate action. 🤝 Understand how international climate negotiations work. 🌱 Formulate concrete commitments to protect our planet. I would also like to point out that this course fits in perfectly with the "Impact on the environment" module that I studied at the Ecole Nationale d'Ingénieurs de Tunis. I would like to express my deep gratitude to our teacher, Ms Fairouz Slama, for her invaluable contribution to my training. This certificate is much more than just a personal achievement. It's a step towards a more sustainable and resilient future. Together, we can take action for a better future. 🌟 hashtag#ClimateChange hashtag#Sustainability hashtag#ActionForClimate hashtag#UN training hashtag#Commitment hashtag#Climate hashtag#ENIT 🌎💚

Part 1: **Title: "Integrating Wisdom, Science, and Responsibility: A Comprehensive Approach to Global Warming and Climate Change"** **Introduction:** - Greetings and acknowledgments: "Esteemed Senator Mrs. Hillary, distinguished guests, and fellow participants, it is an honor to stand here today at this pivotal summit on Global Warming and Climate Change." - Introduction: "I am Dr. Priya, a passionate advocate for education and communication in environmental stewardship. My journey across various continents has not only enriched my understanding but also deepened my commitment to our planet." **Section 1: The Fabric of Education and Environmental Consciousness** - Role of education: "Education is the cornerstone of environmental awareness. It equips us with the knowledge to understand the impact of our actions and fosters a culture of sustainability." - Global insights: "From the bustling streets of London to the serene landscapes of South India, I've witnessed a diverse range of interactions with our environment. In London, the focus is on technological solutions, while in India, there's a spiritual connection with nature, emphasizing harmony and balance." **Section 2: The Interplay of Culture, Science, and Climate Action** - Diverse perspectives: "In New York, I discussed heart dynamics with a cardiologist, linking the rhythm of our speech to our physical heart. This analogy extends to our planet – the Earth has its rhythm, and our actions are its heartbeat." - Broader understanding: "These encounters have taught me that climate action is not just scientific but also cultural. We must respect and integrate various cultural narratives into our environmental strategies." **Section 3: Climate Change – A Multi-Dimensional Challenge** - Scientific aspects: "Climate change is manifested through rising global temperatures, melting ice caps, and increased weather anomalies. The science is clear – our planet is warming at an alarming rate." - Socio-economic impact: "The ramifications extend beyond environmental degradation. They reach into the very fabric of our societies, affecting livelihoods, economies, and cultures. In rural India, I learned how climate change isn't just a concept but a daily reality for many." **Section 4: Lessons from Traditional Wisdom and Modern Science** (To Be Expanded Further) - Traditional wisdom: "In the Vedic school in South India, students learn under tree shades, aligning themselves with nature’s rhythm. This ancient wisdom, when combined with modern science, offers profound insights into sustainable living." - Modern science and environmental stewardship: "Modern science provides us with tools and methodologies to understand and mitigate the impacts of climate change. But it is through the lens of traditional wisdom that we learn to live in harmony with nature." To be continued

Nangarhar university climate change conference. a good initiative by its professors and managment According to the Global Climate Risk Index, in 2019, Afghanistan ranked sixth among countries most affected by climate impacts.Climate change is indeed a significant issue in Afghanistan, as it is affecting various aspects of the country's environment and people's lives. Afghanistan is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, including increased temperatures, changes in precipitation patterns, and more frequent extreme weather events such as droughts and floods. These changes have implications for several sectors, including agriculture, water resources, and natural ecosystems. Reduced agricultural productivity and water scarcity can lead to food insecurity and the displacement of rural populations. Furthermore, the loss of biodiversity and degradation of ecosystems pose challenges in terms of sustainable development and the conservation of natural resources Afghanistan, is not a significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. Its total carbon dioxide emissions are relatively low compared to larger economies. hope this confernece will have fruitfull result.
