I achieved a personal goal yesterday and finally hiked the #Gemmi pass from Leukerbad to Kandersteg in Switzerland. 25 km, 35000 steps, 7+ hours and 1023 vertical meters. Incredible, unforgettable, #Swiss experience!

Sharan Burrow at #IEA50: To have [Just Transition] back on the agenda is positive, but we are lagging. The jobs story is not easy, but there are many jobs in RE. Transition is painful, proud of labour, they have been leaders on climate. There are no jobs on a dead planet.

.@JonathanWNV at #IEA50: Success on low carbon development is essential to prosperity and our ability to fight climate change. We must support workers that need transition to new rapidly growing economic sectors, build on economic advantages, & work in an inclusive way w/ labour

.@JonathanWNV at #IEA50: A country that ignores climate change does not have a realistic economic plan for their future. Most people accept the reality of climate change but want to know they and their kids will have jobs. We need a compelling economic vision to bring them along.

Brian Motherway (@IEA ) at #IEA50: We are making sure that the IEA remembers impacts of energy transition on people, including focus on skills, jobs, affordability and fairness. It’s not just technology, it’s people
