Play Video: UN Chief: "We need an international financial system that meets the needs of LLDCs" | COP28

Remarks by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, at the Opening of the High-level meeting of the Landlocked Developing Countries (LLDC) | COP28, UN Climate Change Conference. You Excellency Mr. President Excellencies, friends, It is a privilege to participate in this high-level meeting of landlocked developing countries. Let me begin by thanking the President of Botswana for your strong leadership. I’ve been for many years a great admirer of your country. Landlocked, but a middle-income country with exemplary congruence with social cohesion and sustainable development. Now the specific challenges and vulnerabilities of Landlocked Developing Countries are well-documented. But they do not receive nearly enough global attention. LLDCs are on the frontlines of the climate chaos – confronting a range of dramatic impacts: desertification and prolonged droughts, catastrophic biodiversity loss and rapidly melting glaciers. However, you are also in pole position to reap the rewards of the renewables revolution. You can be champions of an energy transition that is sustainable, just, inclusive, and equitable. But to do all of this, you need much, much more support. The Global Stocktake to be approved in this COP is critical. It must mark a turning point towards a surge of global climate ambition in 2025 and beyond. And that demands action across three priority areas. First, action on finance. And it’s good to have a minister of finance together with us. We need to see a boosting of contributions to the new Loss and Damage Fund. It started well, but with very little money. It must be a much bigger fund than what it looks like at the present moment. And we need developed countries to make good on their financial commitments – by clarifying how they deliver or are delivering the $100 billion a year and setting out a clear plan to double adaptation finance. But we must go further still. We must reform the deeply unfair global financial architecture so that it better represents developing countries and better responds to their needs. We need an international financial system that meets the needs of LLDCs with an effective debt-relief mechanism that supports payment suspensions, longer lending terms, and lower rates. We need international financial institutions to fully align with the Paris Agreement. And we need to increase the capital base and change the business models of Multilateral Development Banks so that they leverage far more private finance at reasonable costs to developing countries and in particular LLDCs. Second, action on reducing emissions. We must preserve the limit of 1.5-degrees of heating, as set out in the Paris Agreement, to avert the worst of climate chaos. The Global Stocktake must set clear expectations that countries’ 2025 Nationally Determined Contributions will align with the 1.5-degree limit. And it must advance a just, fair and equitable transition from fossil fuels to renewables: By committing countries to triple renewables capacity, double energy efficiency, and bringing clean energy to all, by 2030. And by committing to phase out fossil fuels on a clear timeframe that aligns with the 1.5-degree limit. Countries must also take action in line with my Climate Solidary Pact and Acceleration Agenda: hitting fast forward on their net zero timelines so that they get there as soon as possible to 2040 in developed countries and 2050 in emerging economies. There is this, I would say, very unfair situation. There are no LLDCs that are big emitters, but LLDCs are on the frontline of the negative devastating impacts of climate change. So I think you have a moral authority to tell big emitters, namely the G20 countries that represent 80 per cent of the emissions, it’s time to seriously reduce emissions in order for LLDCs to have a chance not to be so dramatically impacted by the acceleration of the climate chaos consequences. We need to work together with a new level of international cooperation – governments, countries, and companies – to support the global transition to net zero by 2050. This includes: Putting a fair price on carbon. Protecting everyone, everywhere with early warning systems. And aligning all critical emitting sectors with 1.5 degrees. Excellencies, dear friends, In these priorities and more, the United Nations stands with you, with the Landlocked Developing Countries. Together, we can lay the foundation for a more resilient and sustainable future for over 500 million people of landlocked developing countries, leaving no one behind as it is our key message of the Sustainable Development Goals. And we can build on this progress at the Third United Nations Conference on LLDCs next June...

Opening of G77 and China Summit. COP28 Website: https://unfccc.int/cop28 About COP28: COP 28 refers to the United Nations Climate Change Conference taking place in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from 30 November until 12 December 2023. UN Climate Change conferences (or COPs) take place every year, and are the world’s only multilateral decision-making forum on climate change with almost complete membership of every country in the world. To put it simply, the COP is where the world comes together to agree on ways to address the climate crisis, such as limiting global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, helping vulnerable communities adapt to the effects of climate change, and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. More than 70,000 delegates are expected to attend COP28, including the member states (or Parties) of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Business leaders, young people, climate scientists, Indigenous Peoples, journalists, and various other experts and stakeholders are also among the participants. Officially, COP 28 stands for the 28th meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP) to the UNFCCC.

Remarks by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, at the Opening of the event "Call of the Mountains: who saves us from the climate crisis?" | COP28, UN Climate Change Conference. Dear Prime Minister, Excellencies, friends, It is a pleasure to join you today. And I thank the Prime Minister for organising this important event. Just weeks ago, I was standing in the mighty Himalayas – on an unforgettable visit to beautiful Nepal enjoying the most wonderful hospitality that I could ever imagine and I’m very grateful to the government and the people of Nepal for their warm welcome and for the opportunity that they provided to me. It is deeply shocking to learn how fast the Himalayan glaciers are melting. And deeply distressing to hear first-hand from local communities about the terrible impact on their lives. Nepal, and other vulnerable mountain countries, are being pounded by a crisis that is not of their making. The country has lost close to a third of its ice in just over thirty years – a direct result of the greenhouse [gas] pollution heating our planet. That means swollen lakes and rivers flooding, sweeping away entire communities. It means rising seas threatening communities around the world. And melting is accelerating. Unless we change course, we will unleash catastrophe: The glaciers could disappear altogether. That means massively reduced flows for major Himalayan rivers like the Indus, the Ganges and Brahmaputra. Deltas decimated by saltwater. Low-lying communities wiped out, millions of people forced from their homes, and floods and droughts accelerating around the world. Nepal’s mountains are crying out for help and COP28 must respond. The Global Stocktake must look forward and create the conditions for a surge in global climate action in 2025 and beyond. Critically, we need this COP to deliver in three areas: First, finance and climate justice. There can be no climate action without the money to pay for it. I am calling for developed countries to clarify the delivery of the $100 billion, and to produce a clear plan to double adaptation finance to $40 billion a year by 2025 – as a first step to devoting half of climate finance to adaptation. But those sums are dwarfed by the scale of what’s needed. So, we need the outcome of this COP to call for reform of the International Financial Institutions so that they reflect today’s world and are far more responsive to the needs of developing countries. And for reform of the business models of the Multilateral Development Banks so that they can leverage far more private finance at reasonable cost to developing countries like Nepal. Responding to the climate disaster shouldn’t create a financial disaster. So, we also need the outcome of the COP to support an increase in the proportion of climate finance delivered as grants and concessional finance. And I am calling for countries to boost support for the Loss and Damage Fund. It was an extremely important decision to move forward with it, but we must serious money into it. Second, this COP needs to set the world up for emissions to plummet. The door is closing on 1.5 degrees. But a sliver of light remains. This COP outcome must set a clear expectation that countries’ 2025 Nationally Determined Contributions will align with the 1.5-degree limit, cover the whole economy, and be delivered on time. And it must chart a course for a fair, just, and equitable transition from fossil fuels to renewables. The science is clear: ultimately fossil fuels must go. We need a clear commitment to double energy efficiency, and bring clean energy to all, by 2030. And to phase out fossil fuels on a timeframe compatible with achieving the 1.5 degree goal of the Paris Agreement. Finally, the Global Stocktake must strengthen international cooperation. The goals of the Paris Agreement depend on it. We need collaboration between government, and between countries and companies, to drive down emissions, and to protect everyone on earth with an effective early warning system by 2027 and Nepal is an essential candidate to have an effective early warning system. Excellencies, friends, The mountains are issuing a distress call. COP28 must respond with a rescue plan and let’s give our all to making that that reality emerges from the COP. Thank you very much.

Play Video: Dog Meat Farmers Protest Against Ban in South Korea

These South Korean dog meat farmers are protesting against recent government moves to ban rearing dogs for meat. The Korean Dog Meat Association says it wants dog meat farming to be treated like any other livestock farming and that a ban would infringe on the rights of farmers and consumers. There is a long history of eating dog meat in Korea, but recent surveys show that the majority of South Koreans are against the practice. South Korea’s sizeable Buddhist population also largely opposes all forms of meat farming, which includes dog meat farming. Animal rights charity director Borami Seo believes South Koreans are becoming increasingly conscious of animal welfare. Farming dogs for meat is already heavily restricted in South Korea. Although not explicitly banned, dogs are not specified as livestock in Korean law, unlike most other animals reared for meat. In recent years several local governments have further restricted the practice, and have shut down dog slaughterhouses. But, with impassioned supporters on both sides, it's not yet clear if the government’s attempt to ban the practice will succeed. #korea #dogs #food Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/ODNsubs TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ondemandnews Twitter: https://twitter.com/ODN Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ODN/ If you wish to purchase any of our clips for commercial use, please visit: http://www.itnproductions.co.uk/news/

After seven days of ceasefire, the war in Gaza started again this morning. Just 30 minutes after the ceasefire ended Israel announced it had hit Hamas targets with airstrikes. Israel also accused Hamas of violating the ceasefire by firing rockets into its territory. The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says 32 were killed in the first three hours after the end of the ceasefire. The renewed violence marks the end of a seven-day ceasefire that saw Israel and Hamas exchange hostages and prisoners. A four-day ceasefire began on 24 November but was extended to seven days, with help from Egypt and Qatar acting as mediators. More than 100 hostages were returned by Hamas in exchange for Israel releasing 240 prisoners. Many had hoped the ceasefire might be extended indefinitely, but Israel has reiterated it will not stop the war until all the hostages are returned, and Hamas is destroyed. #israel #gaza #palestine Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/ODNsubs TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ondemandnews Twitter: https://twitter.com/ODN Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ODN/ If you wish to purchase any of our clips for commercial use, please visit: http://www.itnproductions.co.uk/news/

At 18.5 million hectares (46 million acres), that’s about five per cent of the country’s entire forests. As the wildfire season slowly winds down with cooling temperatures, what happens to all the land and forests after the fires have been extinguished and nearby evacuated communities returned, especially with such a large swath of area affected? In the past, fires didn’t come around an area more often than every 30 years, with the lack of trees from recent burns helping regulate the frequency of the fires and resetting the local ecosystem. But now, experts warn that climate change may be breaking that natural cycle. “Unfortunately, what we're seeing now when we have these extremely intense fires is that, in some places, things burn so hot that they actually incinerate the seeds that are released,” warns ‘Dark Days at Noon: The Future of Fire’ author Edward Struzik. “The southern end of our boreal forest is going to disappear.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Like Global News on Facebook HERE: http://bit.ly/255GMJQ Follow Global News on Twitter HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on Instagram HERE: https://bit.ly/2QZaZIB #GlobalNews #Canada #Wildfires

Global Video: How rocks from an asteroid could teach us about our planet

Play Video: How rocks from an asteroid could teach us about our planet

On Sunday, rocks plucked from the asteroid 101955 Bennu will land on our planet, ready to be studied by scientists who hope this sample can shine a light on our planet – and how it came to be. The sample comes to us seven years after NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft launched from Cape Canaveral, Fla. on a mission to study a near-Earth asteroid and three years after it successfully touched down on Bennu to collect a sample of an asteroid for the first time in the space agency’s history. Bennu is described as a celestial “rubbish pile” that is made up of material dating back billions of years to when the solar system was forming. And as Alyssa Julie reports, scientists believe its rocks could hold a record of that time period.

Global Video: Maui wildfires: Wind, drought and invasive grass created perfect storm for devastating fires

Play Video: Maui wildfires: Wind, drought and invasive grass created perfect storm for devastating fires

Punishing winds, a severe drought and invasive grass created the perfect conditions for the devastating fires on Maui that have so far killed at least 67 people, experts say. The exact cause of the fires is yet to be determined but the National Weather Service had issued warnings for high winds and dry weather as Hurricane Dora brushed south of Hawaii. Craig Clements, a meteorology professor at San Jose State University, said Maui had already been in a severe drought, putting it at risk for fires. He said the steep mountains overlooking the hard-hit town of Lahain also exacerbated the high wind conditions, sending them into populated areas at high speed. Alyssa Julie has more on how conditions fanned the flames of the fires.

Play Video: CO2: How an essential greenhouse gas is heating up the planet

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a naturally occurring greenhouse gas and is essential for life on Earth to function normally. However, humans are emitting it on an industrial scale, like through the burning of fossil fuels, which is contributing to global warming. Kamyar Razavi explains how the exponential increase of CO2 release is causing the planet to heat up.

Play Video: King Charles coronation: Crown jewels, centuries-old traditions and what it all means

The coronation of King Charles III will be the first time a King of England has his coronation televised and only the second-ever British monarch to do so after Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. It’s a ceremony full of pomp and circumstance, cloaked in mystery and steeped in centuries-old traditions…that comes from a healthy dose of historical pettiness and happenstance. During the ceremony, the monarch will be presented with the crown jewels, almost all of which were destroyed, altered, or lost to time over the often-tumultuous centuries of British history. While the crown is the centrepiece of the regalia – what do sceptres, swords and a Scottish stone have to do with being anointed to the British throne? Global News explains.
