Our efforts now can alter our path.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But we must work together to build resilience and tackle disaster vulnerability.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We must ensure the development and implementation of climate adaptation strategies, including ensuring reliable early warning systems.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We must improve coastal management practices.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Above all, we must stop the global warming that is fuelling sea-level rise by recommitting to our goal of limiting temperature rise to no more than 1.5 degrees.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With the nationally determined contributions under the Paris Agreement due next year, we have an opportunity to accelerate our efforts.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And before this, at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Baku, we can work together to boost financing for climate action, with the appropriate support provided to those most affected by sea-level rise.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Excellencies,<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s discussion touches upon many aspects of climate change, but it should not be conflated as another climate summit.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>True, sea-level rise is fuelled by climate change.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But it is our inability, as yet, to halt climate change that has necessitated this parallel track, to deal with its devastating impacts.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Let me be clear: even with effective climate action in the long-term, we have to reconcile the fact that entire islands are at risk of being lost, entire coastlines are being eroded and are vanishing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>These are impacts that will affect people as far away as the Pacific islands, or as close as right here in New York City.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is an issue we cannot morally, politically, or financially, afford to ignore. It is time to make decisions. It is time to act.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I hope that you approach today\u2019s discussions with a spirit of cooperation and solidarity \u2013 and help to lay a path forward for those on the frontlines of rising seas.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I thank you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Media Contacts:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sharon Birch, Spokesperson for the President of the General Assembly, Tel: 1 646-342-5873, email:\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:birchs@un.org\">birchs@un.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Mariam Shaikh, Dr. Advisor, Media and Communications, Office of the President of the General Assembly, Tel: 1 9173614990, email:\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:mariam.shaikh@un.org\">mariam.shaikh@un.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get more updates<\/strong>\u00a0on the statements and the engagements of the President of the General Assembly from the following digital and social media channels:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/pga\/79\/\">Website<\/a><strong>:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµPGA\">YouTube:\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ_PGA\">X (Twitter):<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/unpga\">Instagram<\/a>:\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/un-pga79\/\">LinkedIn:\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/opga79.imgbb.com\/\">Photo Repository:\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_video _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/-v9rhvOLS0s?si=kw457aqqpIlq9h_r&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 Opening Remarks by the President of the General Assembly,Mr. Phil\u00e9mon YangHigh-Level plenary meeting on addressing the existential threats posed by sea-level rise.
