While #Pollution and #ClimateChange impacts are severe in cities, we still have a chance to make them desirable living places. Urban #forestry is our unsung hero, turning grey to green, slashing stress, cleaning air and water AND fighting off urban heat. Via Biodiversity Hub International

9% of the global population live in water-stressed countries. Climate change is making water more scarce and unpredictable, displacing millions of people. Better data will help decision-makers set the priorities for #SDG6: buff.ly/41su6CA

Safely managed water & sanitation systems reduce greenhouse gases from human waste. Water is also crucial for clean energy generation. 📘 See UN-Water's brief on water for climate mitigation. #QuestionsPeopleAsk on #WaterAction = #ClimateAction ➡️ buff.ly/4gOv1SM
