I've spoken before about the Danish climate atlas and how we use it to help stakeholders prepare for impacts of a warmer climate, my colleagues have been working very hard with our partners to develop on relevant for Ghana 🇬🇭🇩🇰
This is still the initial phase, but it's already impressively easy to understand.

Why isn't it possible to simply agree that we must do 2 things to mitigate #climate change: 1) Eliminate nearly all anthropogenic GHG emissions and 2) Increase the rate of CO2 sequestration?
And then we can focus on the merits/demerits of actions in both spaces? We are not facing exclusive options here, after all. (1/2)
Could nature itself hold the solution to climate change?
