UN Secretary General at #COP26: 'We know what must be done'

The UN Climate Change Conference (COP 26) in Glasgow, United Kingdom is a crucial opportunity to achieve pivotal, transformational change in global climate policy and action. It is a credibility test for global efforts to address climate change and it is where Parties must make considerable progress to reach consensus on issues they have been discussing for several years. COP 26 comes against the background of widespread, rapid and intensifying climate change impacts, which are already impacting every region on Earth. Also, COP 26 comes against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic, with the urgent need to build back better for present future generations to ensure a safe future.

The UNFCCC secretariat (UN Climate Change) is the United Nations entity tasked with supporting the global response to the threat of climate change. UNFCCC stands for United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. The Convention has near universal membership (197 Parties) and is the parent treaty of the 2015 Paris Agreement. The main aim of the Paris Agreement is to keep the global average temperature rise this century as close as possible to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. The UNFCCC is also the parent treaty of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol. The ultimate objective of all three agreements under the UNFCCC is to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that will prevent dangerous human interference with the climate system, in a time frame which allows ecosystems to adapt naturally and enables sustainable development.

Gueteres: "Show the way".
Negotiators: "Which one?".

Mr.Secretary General the required action is too slow.You please take initiative and act faster. Blame games will not solve the doomsday.

Ikr. White collar professional workers who have desk jobs indoors need to work from home, working on a building stamped with the company trade mark or logo is outdated. Cyber interaction know how is the future. Someone from the future i think will describe this pandemic as our turning point in history. Green house emissions on the road or whatever. Oil companies are obsessed with the power struggle I tell you.

Sir ..it is a remarkable pledge but we have to deep drive into the afterefect of decommercialisation of coal and fossil fuels ..there would be a cascading effect on employment generated by these two sectors and these two sectors belongs largely with underdeveloped nations ...there wud be direct push to proverty which is not desired ...we have to think a differently ...our aim is hv a particles and poisonous gases emitted by burning coal and igniting fossil fuels to be harmless ...primarily carbon and SO2 are two most critical elements which causes 70 % of the problem ..we hv to think of neutralising the detremental effect of these two elements ..i am sure there are means to do so ..in doing this change we would be saving on three accounts ..first the rehabilitating cost and efforts wud be saved ...industries which are dependent of these two sectors wud be saved ...automobiles ..thermal power generations ...coal usage driven industries ....third and most critical ...we wud be generating additional empoyment generation scope by encouraging a new industry of deneutralisation of two critical poisonous elements ....these two elements constitute around 55% of the problems of emissionary holocaust ...and neutralising effect will eliminate or rather neutraluse major chunk of it ...we hv to parallely think of addressing of arresting balance 45 % of the problem ....suspended particle is the most critical element out of it ..appreciate u r intervention and needful directions
