Marcos sa mayayamang bansa: Responsibilidad vs climate change tuparin

NANAWAGAN si Pangulong Bongbong Marcos sa mga mayayamang bansa na tuparin ang obligasyon sa ilalim ng United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Paris Agreement para mabawasan ang green gas emission sa harap ng patuloy na epekto ng climate change.

“The effects of climate change are uneven and reflect an historical injustice. Those who are least responsible suffer the most. The Philippines, for example, is a net carbon sink, we absorb more carbon dioxide than we emit. And yet, we are the 4th most vulnerable country to the effects of climate change,” sabi ni Marcos sa kanyang talumpati sa United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).

Idinagdag ni Marcos na dapat maitama ang kawalan ng hustisya at kumilos ang mga dapat umaksyon.

“We call on the industrialized countries to immediately fulfill their obligations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Paris Agreement to cut their greenhouse gas emissions, provide climate financing and technology transfer for adaptation for the most vulnerable and developing countries to lead by example. We look forward to concrete outcomes at the Conference of Parties in Egypt later this year,” aniya.
