Ban Ki-moon urges leaders to move on 2015 climate deal

The following article is transcribed from "Carbon Finance".

  The UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon has called on world leaders to agree a global climate agreement by 2015, as he identified climate change as one of their most urgent challenges.

  “It is time to move beyond spending enormous sums addressing the damage [caused by climate change], and to make the investments that will repay themselves many times over,” Ban told US think-tank the Council on Foreign Relations yesterday.   “A global climate change agreement would give us the engine we need to advance us decisively on this path,” he added.

  He called for governments and business leaders to mobilise the political will for a global legally-binding climate change agreement by 2015, saying: “World leaders have pledged to reach an agreement, and we must hold them to that promise.”

  Ban welcomed US President Barack Obama’s recent speeches on climate change, which he called a “new resolve” to address climate change and give it high political priority. Climate change is one of the two biggest issues – equal to the situation in Syria – currently facing global leaders, threatening “huge global consequences” and risking “the harsh judgment of history should present trends continue”, Ban said. Both these threats require collective action and must involve the US to be solved, he added.
