  16. A ToDo list for #ClimateResilience

    – First, governments should build up #EarlyWarningSystems.
    – Second, countries should work to enhance #CrossBorderResponse capabilities.
    – Third, policymakers must commit to closing the #insurance protection gap.
    – Fourth, governments must shift the paradigm for natural disasters to prioritize #RiskReduction over disaster recovery.
    – Fifth, countries must collaboratively invest in enhancing global #FoodSecurity.

  18. I’ve always been fascinated by sound mirrors, aka acoustic mirrors. These large, haunting, concrete lenticular monoliths stud the British coastline. From 1916 thru to the 1930s as a pre-radar early warning system to amplify approaching aircraft engine noise. They look amazing. Future archaeologists will almost certainly conclude they had “ritual significance”. andrewgrantham.co.uk/soundmirr
