It will never be forgiven: UN climate chief warns world to act or face disaster

Faltering governments will be blamed for famine and conflict abroad, and will face stagnation and rising inflation at home, the UN climate chief warned at the start of Cop30. Simon Stiell, the executive secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, addressed ministers and high-ranking officials from nearly 200 countries in a stark portrayal of the price of failure on the climate crisis.

Es incómodo para un científico recordar lo apremiante y grave de la crisis climática, la relativa inacción y los niveles de hipocresía que se gastan en materia climática y ambiental. Es motivante construir un Pacto de Estado por el clima.
