🌍@GCAdaptation is strengthening climate adaptation in the @WorldBank ’s Tanzania Food Systems Resilience Program #TFSRP to build a more resilient agricultural sector. In collaboration with Tanzania’s Ministry of Agriculture, The World Bank, with support from @WeatherImpact , Tanzania Agricultural Research Institute - TARI and @Esoko , GCA convened an inception workshop for Technical Assistance to enhance Digital Climate Advisory Solutions #DCAS for smallholder farmers and scoped climate-resilient seed systems. Together, we’re climate-proofing Tanzania’s food systems against climate shocks! Stay tuned for updates. #ClimateAdaptation #FoodSystems #TanzaniaAgriculture #ResilientFarming #AdaptOurWorld

Wat als de extreme neerslag van Limburg van afgelopen zomer ons beheergebied valt? Dat onderzochten @HydrologicNL en @WeatherImpact. Conclusie: om zoveel mogelijk schade en #wateroverlast te voorkomen moeten we keihard (samen)werken -> hdsr.nl/actueel/nieuws/@1448… #klimaatadaptatie

Martell (Süd-Tirol, 1300m) is vanmorgen getroffen door twee lawines (geen gewonden). Bewoners van een aantal woningen zijn geëvacueerd. Overige bewoners mogen hun woningen niet verlaten. Inmiddels is de #sneeuw overgegaan in regen. #Lawinegevaar blijft zeer groot.
