“China is building a first-class business environment that is market oriented. In traditional areas like trade and new ones such as climate change and artificial intelligence, China and the United States should become boosters for each other's development, not obstructions on each other.”

“Dealing with the Shabab will be among the first challenges facing Somalia's next government. But the new leader needs also to deliver a new Constitution, reform the economy, deal with climate change, open dialogue with the breakaway region of Somaliland and unite a polarized nation. Governance in Somalia became too confrontational over the past few years. It was like pulling teeth. People are now ready for a new dawn.”

“Imagine it's the near future. You leave your house and the air is clean and fresh. You get in a car or bus that's clean and electric and it takes you wherever you want to go. So is this some impossible utopia? No. Not at all. It's absolutely possible. And we already have the map that gets us there: the Paris Climate Agreement. And almost 200 countries have already signed on. Every five years each nation has to report back on how they are reducing their carbon footprint and what they are doing to keep global temperature from raising more than 1.5° Celsius. This is personal for me. I don't want to choke on the air I breathe, or see wildfires burning out of control. So let's keep working together. You too can protect what is left and repair what has been damaged. So help me spread the word by posting your support of the Paris Agreement.”

“Diminishing water resources, poor water quality, and a lack of integrated approaches could create a recipe for destabilisation. Many water conflicts … are going to happen in the future due to these kinds of situations. Climate change is exacerbating all this and posing further threats.”

“Climate change is one of the factors that has led to desertification and drought in Iraq. Reduced water levels in the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are exacerbating this. The discharge of water through those rivers that originated in Iran and Turkey is now decreased by 50 percent.”

“More than 80 countries had signed on to the methane cut, which would immediately slow down climate change. About 30 percent of global warming since the Industrial Revolution is due to methane. Today global methane emissions grow faster than at any time in the past. Reducing methane is one of the most effective ways to reduce near-term warming and keep the Paris goal of 1.5 degrees Celsius of warming alive. It is the lowest hanging fruit.”

“The target decided by the government [40 percent from 2018 levels by 2030] is very disappointing. To prevent the worst degree of climate change, we should immediately start reducing greenhouse gas emissions to significant levels and achieve at least a 50 percent reduction in 2030 from 2018 levels. If the government announces this target at COP26, it will face a cold reaction from international citizens. International investment institutions and global companies, which place importance on responses to climate change in their investment decisions, will also have doubts on the future of South Korea's economy.”

“We need to come out of Glasgow saying with credibility that we have kept 1.5 alive. We're already at global warming at 1.1 degrees above pre-industrial levels. At 1.5 there are countries in the world that will be underwater, and that's why we need to get an agreement here on how we tackle climate change over the next decade.”

“The DPP [Democratic Progressive Party] should accept responsibility for power outages on May 13 and 17, and July 27. The outages tested the confidence of Taiwanese enterprises and inconvenienced the public. The government's dependence on coal-fired power plants has harmed public health and taken the nation further from the international effort to fight climate change. The government did not improve the economy, livelihoods or environmental sustainability - failures for which any politician except Su [Taiwan Premier - Su Tseng-chang] would have resigned. The public knows how little credibility Su has to cast aspersions.”

“The dire consequences of climate change can no longer be ignored, and the science linking climate change to past and present emissions of greenhouse gases is now beyond question. Climate change is driving sea level rise, desertification, disease redistribution, floods, unprecedented 'heat domes', cyclones, hurricanes, and other extreme weather events.”
