Especially inspiring during the public consultations was the deep knowledge, strength & dignity of the 🇹🇻 Tuvaluan women representatives sharing the culture & traditions of their beloved islands. The opening hymn they sang was hauntingly beautiful; raised goosebumps. Watch it!

After a full day of discussions, #RisingNations youth rep Kalita Titi Homasi briefs 🇹🇻 Minister Seve Paneiu on youth perspectives on #climatechange impacts, possible solutions & suggestions for further work. Min Seve pledged his full commitment & support for #youthlead!

A key takeaway from this trip: often the Pacific small islands need targeted & focused support, sometimes in projects/amounts far beneath what large development agencies & donors deem worthy of their time & effort to grant. But these can be the most urgent & thus impactful ones.

Honored to meet with Tuvalu 🇹🇻 Minister of Public Work, Infrastructure, Environment, Labour, Meteorology and Disaster Ampelosa Tehulu to discuss #RisingNations & support to Tuvalu to address critical challenges amidst #climatechange.

The smoke from the fireworks display is more toxic then the smoke from the Canadian fires. Happy 4th of July Amelika🇺🇸

This has been, without a doubt, the most meaningful work trip I have ever done in my life. It was extremely challenging at times but at the end, leaving Funafuti left me in tears. Fafetai lasi, Tuvalu 🇹🇻

I have met with many distinguished and learned individuals over the years but Professor Tito of 🇹🇻 Tuvalu stands alone. Thank you so much for your wisdom and looking forward to many more conversations 🙏🏻 #RisingNations

Grateful for the opportunity to spend time with the people of Tuvalu - to hear the wisdom of the Elders, consult with the Government, & be energized by Tuvaluan youth. And most importantly, to understand & connect with the values & spirit of what makes 🇹🇻 Tuvalu. #RisingNations

Unofficial records suggest that in recent days the global average temperature was the warmest that has ever been directly measured. What does that mean? 🧵

To those who opposed a clear reference to phase out of fossil fuels during the #COP28 Climate Conference, I want to say: Whether you like it or not, fossil fuel phase out is inevitable. Let’s hope it doesn’t come too late.
