This is so important. For the people who think we "pessimists" are ignoring the substantive gains of the past century, its important to point out that #climatecrisis puts all these gains at risk.
Quote Tweet
Over 2 billion people have gained access to safe drinking water in the past two decades - but the climate crisis is putting these gains at risk.
Accelerating #ClimateAction is essential to ensure safe water for all.
