United Nations News on July 25, UnIntrombent Guterres issued a statement on the 25th, saying that "all members of the Global Group of 20 urgently need to make a clear and unequivocal commitment to achieve the goal of no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius in the Paris Agreement." On July 23, the latest round of meetings of G20 environment, climate and energy ministers in Naples, Italy, failed to reach consensus on these goals.
Guterres said in a statement: "We cannot achieve this goal without G20 leadership. Thousands of people already at the forefront of the climate crisis, as well as markets, investors and industry players, urgently need the G20 to send a clear signal that a zero-carbon and climate-resilient future is certain to be achieved. ”
Guterres noted that scientific research has taught us that to achieve this "ambitious but achievable goal," the international community must be carbon neutral by 2050 and reduce dangerous greenhouse gas emissions by 45 percent by 2030 from 2010, but he also noted that "we are still far behind track at the moment."
