The UN Secretary-General speaks on the state of the planet | United Nations On 2 December at Columbia University, the UN Secretary-General delivered a landmark speech on the state of the planet, setting the stage for dramatically scaled-up ambition on climate change over the coming year. See excerpts below, or download or watch the speech. More information here The state of the planet is broken Humanity is waging war on nature. Nature always strikes back – and it is already doing so with growing force and fury.

The trillions of dollars needed for COVID recovery is money that we are borrowing from future generations. We cannot use those resources to lock in policies that burden them with a mountain of debt on a broken planet. It is time to flick the “green switch”. Solidarity is humanity.
