Climate change is not a distant problem — it’s harming health, jobs, food, and security right now. And every fraction of a degree of warming matters.
At #COP31, world leaders must deliver a bold and credible plan to close the ambition and implementation gaps. #ClimateAction @un

“No country can protect itself from climate change alone.”
— @antonioguterres urges the world to never give up and accelerate #ClimateAction based on facts & science.
“A cleaner, safer and more secure energy future is in our hands.”
#COP31
UN DESA Sustainable Development retweeted
No country can protect itself from climate change alone.
We share one planet – and whether we like it or not - we share one fate.
So my message as I leave #COP31 is simple:
Face the facts.
Follow the science.
Choose the future.
And never give up.

Climate adaptation is a smart investment for the #GlobalGoals.
A NEW report launched at #COP31 studying adaptation investments found that most of those highlighted return $1 to $6 for every dollar spent.

Is it fair that those who contribute the least to the climate crisis suffer the most?
At #COP31, I sat down with @charityekezie_ to answer some of the important questions her social media followers asked.
Together, let’s keep telling the truth about the climate crisis & keep demanding the #ClimateAction that truth requires.

"The brutal truth is that the climate crisis is outrunning us.
Starting next year I will no longer be Secretary-General.
But you can count on this: I will not stop telling the truth, and I will not stop fighting for it."

As the future of energy is being built, we have a choice to make:
We can build a future of clean energy independence or lock in another generation of fossil fuel dependence.
We have the technology.
We have the economic case.
Now we need the political will to deliver.
#COP31
The right policies can make change work for everyone, and strengthen transformations themselves.
But what does that look like in practice?
