Climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental degradation threaten the foundations of peace, security, and development.
I will work to ensure that climate resilience and environmental sustainability run through all relevant deliberations as cross-cutting issues.

Vision statement
My commitments
Deliver on existing commitments. I will pursue inclusive dialogues focused on tangible deliveries on the existing commitments under the Paris Agreement, especially in the context of the thirtieth Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (蘑菇视频FCCC COP30).
Operationalise Loss and Damage. I will support efforts to fully operationalise the Loss and Damage Fund with accessible, predictable, and need-based financing, particularly for least developed countries (LDCs) and small island developing States (SIDS).
Protect biodiversity, oceans, and land. I will encourage accelerated implementation of biodiversity, desertification, pollution control and ocean agreements, and support the New Urban Agenda and sustainable cities as critical arenas for climate solutions.
Early warning for all. I will support the global goal of universal multi-hazard early warning systems, which are vital for saving lives and protecting livelihoods in climate vulnerable countries. I will also emphasise the importance of early warning and surveillance systems for pandemic prevention, preparedness and response, drawing lessons from COVID-19.
My initiatives
Ocean governance. In the backdrop of the Ocean Decade, I will support initiatives at promoting science-based ocean action and scaling up effective partnerships for the conservation of marine ecosystems.
Climate mobility. Drawing on existing commitments and partnerships, I will draw global attention to the lived experiences of climate mobility within and across borders towards identifying relevant protection norms and best practices. I will underscore this issue in the context of the High-level Meeting to Address Existential threats Posed by Sea-level Rise.
