The complexities of climate change and its associated jargon can make it difficult to digest. TheCable’s climate facts will help to demystify these climate concepts through easy-to-understand and straight-to-the-point explanations.
Here are some to keep at the tip of your fingers:
- President Muhammadu Buhari signed Nigeria’s climate change bill into law on November 18, 2021.
- Global sea level rise, in addition to ocean warming and ocean acidification, accelerated since 2013 to a new high in 2021, according to the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO).
- According to the United Nations (UN), more than two thirds of the buildings that exist today will still exist in 2030, and will pump out emissions through their energy use (unless they are retrofitted).
- In 2020, more than 830 cities in 72 countries had adopted renewable energy targets, according to the UN.
- Also, as stated by the UN, 95 percent of growth in global power generation capacity is projected to come from renewables by the end of 2026.
