Position: United Nations Resident Coordinator, (UNRC)

It is almost ten years since the Paris Agreement was adopted with the unanimously agreed target of limiting long-term global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Today, Pakistan is feeling the consequences of the dramatic changes in climate while the country is not at fault for contributing to the rapid increase in CO2 emissions and the heating of the planet. The United Nations stands in full solidarity with the Government and the people of Pakistan to adapt to those changes and mitigate the impact through initiatives such as The Living Indus. The COP29 is critically important to mobilize maximum ambition, maximum acceleration, maximum cooperation – in a word maximum action. Climate Justice needs to be translated into access to climate financing for a just and sustainable energy transition. As the United Nations we work with the Government of Pakistan to reinforce investments in renewable energy sources and resilient infrastructure to combat climate change. Only together, we can forge a path towards a greener future. Let us unite in our efforts to make a significant impact on global climate action.
