Extreme weather events are expected to pummel European roads, railways, ports and airports between 2051 and 2080, according to an assessment by @UNECE. Climate adaption and resilience measures will be key to keeping transport moving in the years ahead. buff.ly/H7tQzPU

Les épisodes climatiques extrêmes vont devenir plus fréquents et plus intenses. Dans un nouveau rapport, @UNECE estime qu'on ne pourra pas toujours les éviter, mais qu'on peut mieux s’y préparer. Adapter les infrastructures au changement climatique doit devenir une priorité.

In Bishkek 🇰🇬 with UN Resident Coordinator Antje Grawe and the UN Country Team. Encouraged stronger collaboration across UN entities on road safety — and heard about the important work already underway on the ground. Road safety requires a whole-of-UN approach. #RoadSafety
