As #COP30 gets underway in Belém, transport is taking centre stage. The sector accounts for a quarter of global energy related CO₂ emissions, yet most climate finance and innovation still bypass the countries and communities that need them most. With the launch of the UN Decade of Sustainable Transport (2026–2035), SEI researchers are calling for a shift toward transport systems that are human-centred, equitable and guided by evidence and data. Our latest perspective outlines three priorities to guide this transition: 1️⃣ Equity in transport – affordable, inclusive mobility for all. 2️⃣ Integrated systems – connecting land use, public transit, and energy planning. 3️⃣ Data and modelling – using transparent, science-based tools for better decisions. 👉 Read it here: https://buff.ly/YL618jz Authors: Maria Xylia, Gary Haq, PhD, Romanus Opiyo, Howard Cambridge, Shimin 诗敏 Huang 黄, Björn Nykvist, Guillaume Bouchard, Eleni Michalopoulou and Francis Xavier Johnson #SustainableTransport #JustTransition #HumanCentredMobility #SEIatCOP30

Transport is still one of the biggest gaps in global climate action. The sector produces about 25% of global energy-related CO₂ emissions, but receives only about 26% of climate finance, where less than 3% reaches low-income countries. #OneSEI Sustainable Transport Programme lays down the principles for a human-centered transition in this newly-starting UN Decade for Sustainable Transport. The three priorities we highlight: 1️⃣ Equity in transport — access and affordability for all communities 2️⃣ Integration — land-use and transport planning, aligning across modes 3️⃣ Evidence-based planning — transparent data, open methods, and consistent accountability For the transport community and climate negotiators at COP, the message is clear: acceleration matters, but so do scope and equity. 📌 Full piece here: https://lnkd.in/dF87eWTA #SustainableTransport #TransportEquity #COP30 #UrbanMobility #ClimateAction #OneSEI #UNDecadeOfSustainableTransport

Watch Kavin Kumar Kandasamy share his insights on why a robust carbon market ecosystem is essential for scaling climate action — and how innovative methodologies can build the trust, clarity, and integrity needed to drive real impact.

#COP30 is about implementation. We have made #ParisAgreement progress, but not enough as the latest UNEP #EmissionsGap data shows. That does not mean we give up. The opposite - it means we must become more determined.

🌍 COP30 Day 5–6 (14–15 Nov): Carbon at the Core Among the many themes discussed during Days 5–6 — including energy, industry, transport, finance and carbon markets — carbon remained at the centre of the agenda, shaping how global systems must transition to lower-impact, climate-aligned pathways. For food and feed systems, the message is clear: meaningful progress depends on renewable inputs that place less pressure on land, water and natural resources. At Ocean Harvest Technology, seaweed sits naturally in this conversation. As a high-capacity blue-carbon ecosystem and a marine resource that grows without freshwater, fertilisers or arable land, macroalgae offer a practical way to support carbon-efficient production and more resilient supply chains. Explore the carousel to see how seaweed contributes to the wider carbon discussion at COP30. 🌊 #COP30 #BlueCarbon #Bioeconomy #SustainableFeed #OceanHarvestTechnology #ClimateAction

𝗠𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗼𝗳 #𝗖𝗢𝗣𝟯𝟬 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 I recently received a thoughtful note from Katarina Lukač, Editor at LinkedIn News, encouraging LinkedIn members to share their thoughts ahead of the #COP30 UN Climate Conference in Brazil, and it got me thinking about what truly matters as the world prepares for this crucial gathering, one that could shape how we act (or fail to act) on the 1.5°C target. For me, the most pressing issues go beyond negotiations and pledges. It’s about 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 — investing in cleaner technologies and driving further innovation, supporting sustainable agriculture, and making real progress on renewable energy adoption. In my field of 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗽𝘆, I see firsthand how advanced analytical techniques can drive environmental stewardship — from assessing soil and water quality to monitoring emissions, detecting pollutants, and characterizing materials for sustainable resource use. Through its many forms and applications, spectroscopy provides the detailed chemical, structural and physical insights that help us better understand environmental systems, paving the way for cleaner, more efficient, and sustainable solutions in agriculture, industry, and energy. As COP30 approaches, I hope the conversations shift from “what we should do” to “what we are doing, together.” #GreenerTogether #COP30 #Sustainability #ClimateAction

✨Green Signals: October 2025✨ Your monthly pulse on climate wins, system shifts, and people-powered change. 🌎October showed us that transformation is happening quietly but powerfully — from frontline innovators to record-setting energy systems. Here are five signals worth paying attention to. 1. UN Pushes Harder for 2035 Climate Commitments The UN reiterated its call for stronger, updated Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) ahead of COP30. These 2035 pledges will shape global emissions pathways at a critical tipping point. 📌 Source: Reuters 2. Young Champions of Earth Announced by UNEP This year’s winners from India, Kenya, and the U.S. are tackling plastic waste, water access, and invasive species with scalable circular solutions. The award backs youth-led innovation for climate resilience. 📌 Source: UNEP 3. Global Renewables Hit Record Growth In 2024, the world added 582 GW of renewable power capacity — the largest ever single-year increase. While still just below the pace needed to meet 2030 targets, this is a major signal of acceleration. 📌 Source: Reuters 4. 150+ Nations Commit to Deep Methane Cuts Over 150 countries reaffirmed pledges to cut methane by 30% by 2030. New policies focus on agriculture, coal, and energy — sectors where change can deliver rapid climate and health benefits. 📌 Source: WINS Solutions 5. Nature-Based Investment Gathers Speed New reporting shows increased investment in biodiversity-linked solutions: regenerative agriculture, mangrove restoration, and urban nature design. Climate and nature are being linked — not siloed. 📌 Source: ASLA - The Dirt 🤍 October’s stories show a clear signal: this decade belongs to the builders — those restoring, reimagining, and redirecting systems. Whether it’s young leaders in Kenya, gigawatts of clean energy, or coalitions cutting methane, the shift is tangible.
