Nine years ago today, a so called 'landmark climate agreement' was adopted at the UN Climate Change summit in Paris (#COP21) as 195 countries agreed to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Nearly a decade later, we are experiencing the hottest year on record, surpassing pre-industrial temperatures by over 1.5°C. The red line set by the #ParisAgreement has now officially been crossed for the first time, with irreversible impacts already unfolding for humans and #Biodiversity. 🚨 When will our governments finally wake up? Acting on climate cannot wait any longer! #ClimateAction

As the world's leaders meet at #COP29, the need for ambitious climate action from all actors in society has never been stronger. The mobile industry is playing its part in reducing emissions. We call on governments to join as a partner in progress to a cleaner, greener world 👉 https://gsma.at/g3 #MobileNetZero #ClimateAction #Sustainability

Our most recent Experiential Week at EMBA ETH Zurich + University of St.Gallen (emba X) gave us the opportunity to develop a business case in a segment of the Precision Agriculture Technology market known as AI Agriculture. We worked with KoraLabs identifying opportunities to apply their incredible AI Predictive technology and support farmers in developing countries to increase productivity up to 10% while reducing the use of inputs (fertilizers, pesticides, water, working hours). 500 millions small farmers around the world (85% of global farmers) do not have access to this incredible technologies as they cannot afford to cover the investment costs but development and humanitarian agencies could provide initial support enabling the entrance of technology. In three years this farmers could lift their families from poverty. Thanks Matteo Turchetta for the incredible opportunity.

We're deeply concerned about reports of a breakdown at #COP29 The Presidency must reach out to all Parties in good faith, to seek an equitable agreement A safe and sustainable #climate is essential for #humanrights. States must commit to ambitious climate action.

At COP29, the webinar titled "Climate Technologies: From Mission to Opportunity at Scale" featured speakers who shared valuable insights on the approaches that have led to the effective expansion of climate solutions beyond 100-fold.
