Guterres warning: we have entered a new era of extreme climate phenomena.
The UN Secretary General has warned that the world is entering a "new era" in which extreme climate phenomena have become the norm. He asked the leaders gathered at the "Cup 31" climate change conference in Turkey to "seriously engage" with this situation.
Guterres said in a statement: "We have entered a new era of extreme climate phenomena. "A very strong El Nino is crashing into a planet already overheated by human-induced climate change."
He asked the leaders participating in this conference to show their seriousness by "accelerating the process of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and providing the necessary financial resources and support to the countries most vulnerable to climate change."
