In the Spotlight

��Science is not telling us to surrender. It is telling us to fight harder.��

At the COP31 Leaders�� Summit, the Secretary-General reflected on lessons from the past decade and called for urgent, accelerated action to limit global warming and make the 1.5�� overshoot temporary. He urged world leaders to advance a new Climate Justice Compact, built on a just transition away from fossil fuels, stronger protections for people, increased climate finance and international cooperation.

��We must move from discussing the transition to organizing it, financing it, and delivering it.��

At the event for the COP30 Roadmap for Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels in Energy Systems, the Secretary-General warned that dependence on fossil fuels is driving both climate and economic insecurity. He called on countries to move from commitments to concrete action by accelerating and financing the transition, and working together to reduce fossil fuel production and use.

��Early warnings save lives��

At COP31, the Secretary-General called for urgent action to deliver on the Early Warnings for All initiative. He appealed to governments and partners to make early warnings a lasting public service, close financing and capacity gaps, and strengthen cooperation to ensure no one is left unprotected from climate disasters.

We Have the Climate Solutions.
What��s Holding Us Back?
