Young people, like the ones I met at #COP27 today, have been relentless in demanding #ClimateAction.
The world owes them an enormous debt.
I am grateful for their persistence & courage - and I am proud to stand with them.
Indeed! A new program on Sustainable Finance, jointly funded by the Ministries of Environment, Finance and Foreign Affairs of #Luxembourg - a first - partnering with @LuxembourgSE - supporting developing countries to scale up their innovative,sustainable finance! More soon!
We are in Sweden to meet with the #finance community and reinforce ties. Our event was opened by @Yuriko_Backes, Luxembourg Minister of Finance, followed by Kristin Magnusson Bernard, CEO at AP1, who touched on financial sector challenges from an investor's point of view.
Congratulations 👏👏👏 to @UN_Women and @LuxembourgSE on this great partnership. We are realigning capital markets to empower women and girls, and to build a more resilient future! It can be done! #GenderBonds#SDG5 🇱🇺🇺🇳#CapitalWomen

Today, @JHahnEU and I 'rang the bell' at the @LuxembourgSE, celebrating the listing of the very first #NextGenerationEU Green Bond.
I am proud of my country for being at the forefront of #GreenFinance, and thus contributing to a sustainable recovery in Europe and beyond. 🇱🇺🇪🇺
By Glasgow @COP26, the world will know which banks, asset managers and asset owners are part of the solution to climate change and which remain part of the problem. #ClimateWeekNYC#GFANZ
We need immediate action on energy and #SDG7💥
@IPCC_CH shows that without deep carbon pollution cuts now, the 1.5-degree goal will fall quickly out of reach!

@UN_Energy
Science’s call to action has never been harsher, nor clearer ... and policy-makers and finance have only a very narrow and short-timed window left to mobilize capital for evidence-based solutions that could (try to) reverse temperature rise trends ...
Now more than ever more Ambition is required. The @IPCC_CH Report confirms that we only have this decade to achieve the 1.5 goal and to become net zero emissions in 2050. We must reduce emissions quickly, permanently and on a large scale, especially in G20 countries. 👇
