UN-CLIMATE-GUTERRES
‘We must stop our war against nature,’ says UN chief on climate
MADRID, Dec 1, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – “We must stop our war against nature,” UN
chief Antonio Guterres said Sunday in Madrid ahead of a key climate
conference, warning against the devastating impacts of global warming.
“For many decades the human species has been at war with the planet, and
now the planet is fighting back,” he said, decrying the “utterly inadequate”
efforts of the world’s major economies to curb carbon pollution.
“We must stop our war against nature, and science tells us we can do it.”
