For those not living in the Riverland and Mid-Murray regions, it can be difficult to comprehend the volume of water coming down stream. This snapshot from above showcases the sheer amount of water from the Morgan region, captured in early December. Visit sa.gov.au/floods

"Towards sufficiency and solidarity: COP27 implications for construction and property" by David Ness In addition to efficiency & renewables, we need to reduce overall consumption by building less, making better use of buildings. #COP27 journal-buildingscities.org/articles/10.53…

Summit panelists are calling for more #sufficiency policies, without which, "the 1.5°C target will be out of reach" Yamina SAHEB @yamsaheb.bsky.social Inês dos Santos Costa also warns of policies' “efficiency tunnel vision”, which needs coupling with sufficiency & efficacy to respect planetary boundaries.

Thank you B&C Editors. As I mentioned in yesterday's Sufficiency Summit sufficiency-summit.webflow.io , 'mushrooming buildings' in Global North can negate any gains in technological efficiency and increase inequity.

Delighted to see a global event conducted in such a convivial atmosphere, with Dr Yamina Saheb's small colleague adding sunshine and hope to the proceedings.

Regarding the demands that go beyond solutions which rely on technologial fixes, one call is particularly decisive: IPCC lead author Yamina SAHEB @yamsaheb.bsky.social was amongst many, who stressed the importance of sufficiency-based societal changes.

Climate inequality mapped. New research by Abi Deivanayagam she/her, Jason Hickel and others has produced striking maps that illustrate the immensely unequal responsibility for climate breakdown and unequal health outcomes between countries. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
