If a 10 year old got it, it would be ashamed for the world leaders to not get it after nearly 30 years of negotiations! Less than 30 days to #COP27, world leaders need to LISTEN to the science, to the voice of those most affected by #ClimateCrisis and URGENTLY ACT NOW.

My 10-year old daughter wrote a poem called "Life" to celebrate #EarthDay2022. Every DAY is earth day!

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

This week the world has experienced the three hottest days on record.

Earth is becoming hotter and more dangerous for everyone, everywhere.

We must rise to the challenge of rising temperatures.

Here’s my call to #ClimateAction: https://t.co/G4cwroe32y

[Global Heat Health Information Network @heathealth_info]

The @UN Secretary-General's Call to Action on #ExtremeHeat is a pivotal moment in our mission.

Together with 10 UN agencies, including @WMO and @WHO, we're calling for action on the multi-sectoral impacts of #extremeheat using science-based solutions.

"Extreme heat is having an extreme impact on people and planet."

Following hottest days ever recorded, @antonioguterres says world must rise to challenge of rising temperatures.

Here’s his global call to #ClimateAction: https://t.co/Vt8M4HQ2Uw

[UN Spokesperson @UN_Spokesperson]

@antonioguterres Today, the @UN is launching a global call to action with 4 areas of focus:
1️⃣ Caring for the most vulnerable
2️⃣ Stepping up protections for workers
3️⃣ Boosting resilience of economies using data & science.
4⃣ Limit🌡️rise to 1.5 °C

‘I was in Nepal. I saw how the glaciers are melting at the rate and speed, devastating communities in a tragic way. So, it is clear that we need massive investment. Adaptation finance must grow in a meaningful way’-UNSG

Always appreciate your powerful message on climate action

[Hanaa Singer-Hamdy @SingerHanaa]

Thank you SG @antonioguterres for spotlighting the devastating impact of #climatechange in #Nepal & highlighting the crucial need for meaningful investments in adaptation & ensuring the best use of those investments to protect the population & economy of vulnerable countries.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

May 2024 was the hottest May in history, marking 12 straight months of hottest months ever.

Our planet is telling us something, but we don't seem to be listening.

It’s time to mobilise, act & deliver.

It's #ClimateAction crunch time.

On 5 June, @antonioguterres will deliver a special address on the urgent need for #ClimateAction followed by a Q&A with @FemiOke.

Do you have any questions for him? Let us know!

[Selwin Hart @SelwinHart]

The good news: we can still keep temp rise below 1.5°C by reducing emissions & delivering finance for #climateaction in developing countries, including for adaptation & loss and damage. We must accelerate investments to protect communities with an early warning system by 2027

[Selwin Hart @SelwinHart]

As @antonioguterres said on the release of the 2023 State of the Global Climate report, fossil fuel pollution is pushing climate chaos off the charts. Heatwaves, floods, droughts & wildfires are upending daily life for millions with huge economic losses. https://t.co/0l7I3s1HHM

[World Meteorological Organization @WMO]

The #StateOfClimate in 2023 gave new meaning to the phrase “off the charts” by marking the warmest year and decade on record. Check out the full report: https://t.co/5NVxGLLjL9

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

To those who opposed a clear reference to phase out of fossil fuels during the #COP28 Climate Conference, I want to say:

Whether you like it or not, fossil fuel phase out is inevitable. Let’s hope it doesn’t come too late.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

In a world defined by escalating climate injustices, early warning systems are the most basic tool for saving lives & livelihoods.

We need all hands-on deck to make the Early Warnings for All initiative a reality & provide protection from hazardous weather & climate. #COP28

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I've just invoked Art.99 of the UN Charter - for the 1st time in my tenure as Secretary-General.

Facing a severe risk of collapse of the humanitarian system in Gaza, I urge the Council to help avert a humanitarian catastrophe & appeal for a humanitarian ceasefire to be declared.

[Selwin Hart @SelwinHart]

As the world continues to break all the wrong climate records, every moment of delay costs lives. I support the call of @antonioguterres to urge all countries to continue to be bold & ambitious & to double the speed & scale of support for #earlywarningsforall in 2024 and beyond.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The world is failing to get a grip on the climate crisis.

Global ambition stagnated over the past year & national plans are strikingly misaligned with the science.

#COP28 must be the place to urgently close the climate ambition gap. https://t.co/8ckVNyR0Ar

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Governments are literally doubling down on fossil fuel production, according to the latest @UNEP report.

We need credible commitments to ramp up renewables, phase out fossil fuels & boost energy efficiency - while ensuring a just, equitable transition. https://t.co/bIcNHDYhuf
