Ok, here’s what you need to know about the new World Bank report on climate and migration. First up - no, this isn’t an estimate of the number of “climate refugees” there are going to be. This is a report about *internal* migration [Thread] worldbank.org/en/news/featur…

The #ClimateAcademy is the next series of academies co-organized by UN University - EHS, Munich Re Foundation - From Knowledge to Action and UN Climate Change. This year, it focuses on #NatureBasedSolutions in #urban settings. It's online and free. More info here: ehs.unu.edu/news/announcem… Resilience Academy (RA)
