⚠️ Wars drive back the #GlobalGoals, increasing poverty and hunger. Families lose income, food systems collapse, and basic needs go unmet. Peace is essential to end the cycle of crisis and build a future where no one is left behind. 🕊️⚖️ un.org/sustainabledevelopmen…

New data by @ember_energy shows: renewables overtook coal in the global electricity mix in 2025. Climate impacts are hitting every economy. Fossil fuel cost chaos is hitting households & businesses everywhere. Renewables are cheaper, and vital for national economic security.
