The world’s largest inland body of water is shrinking.
Climate change is accelerating the retreat of the Caspian Sea, threatening ecosystems, livelihoods and iconic species like sturgeon.
Protecting it will require action #NowForClimate: https://t.co/dvMrTYJduY #WorldEnvironmentDay
This #WorldEnvironmentDay, the signals are clear: heat, floods, pollution, and pressure on the air and water we all depend on.
These challenges cross borders, sectors and generations. So must our response.
Let cooperation be the signal we send.
#NowForClimate@UNEP
The past eleven years have been the hottest on record.
Every fraction of a degree brings greater harm – especially to the most vulnerable.
This #WorldEnvironmentDay, warning signals are everywhere.
This is the moment to act for our environment & for our future.
More than a decade after the Paris Agreement, greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, accelerating climate change.
Humanity still has time to act #NowForClimate and curb these emissions.
Ahead of #WorldEnvironmentDay, here's how you can take action https://t.co/uLHCWFXQ1V

I congratulate Ambassador Julio Cordano of Chile on his election as Chair of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee on Plastic Pollution.
#INC5.3 confirmed strong global resolve to advance a #PlasticsTreaty. Now is the time to work together to end #PlasticPollution.
Honoured to be appointed as the next @UNDP Administrator.
At a time when the world needs cooperation, action and impact more than ever, I’m grateful to @UN Secretary-General @antonioguterres and Member States for their trust.
Looking forward to joining the UNDP team.
As #INC5.2 concludes, we leave with a clearer understanding of the challenges ahead + a renewed shared 🌎 commitment.
This moment inspires us to act boldly and uphold our commitments to end plastic pollution.
#PlasticsTreaty progress is our obligation.

In Geneva, at the resumed #INC5, the halls are filled with the voices of nations who are working so hard to finalise the #PlasticsTreaty.
With 3 days left, the path to ending plastic pollution runs through our shared commitment to multilateralism and the planet we call home.
Plastic is choking our planet — from our oceans to our bodies.
We must not accept this as our destiny.
In Geneva, #INC5 is our chance to secure a #PlasticsTreaty that ends plastic pollution, once and for all.
The world must act — for present and future generations.
The world traded +$1 trillion in plastics last year. Greener alternatives still face higher tariffs. That must change. Trade rules should support the shift to a circular economy.
A strong global #PlasticsTreaty is essential for development & the planet. https://t.co/aI5JN52AXT
Countries are negotiating a global #PlasticsTreaty to help #BeatPlasticPollution.
We need a fair deal that tackles the full life-cycle of plastics, reflects the @CIJ_ICJ Advisory Opinion on Climate Change & supports a shift away from fossil fuels.
“This is a historic opportunity to bridge differences and find common ground 🌎. It is a test of our collective responsibility to protect the environment, safeguard human health, enable sustainable economies, and stand in solidarity with those most affected by plastic pollution”
UNEP Executive Director @andersen_inger urges negotiators in Geneva at the resumed #INC5 to seize this historic moment: finalize a #PlasticsTreaty that protects people, the planet, and future generations.
