Global leaders gathered yesterday in Nairobi for the UN Environment Assembly (UNEA-7), issuing an urgent plea for international cooperation to combat climate challenges. With 2025’s geopolitical tensions looming, delegates emphasized that “no nation can tackle environmental crises alone” – a message resonating like a TikTok anthem among Gen-Z activists.
🌿 Kenyan President William Ruto kicked off the summit, declaring: “This isn’t about borders – it’s about survival.” Sessions focused on green tech investments and climate-resilient infrastructure, with Asia-Pacific nations highlighting recent typhoon recovery efforts. Meanwhile, youth delegates staged a viral “#EarthOrBust” flash mob outside the venue.
💡 Key 2025 goals include finalizing a global plastic treaty and tripling renewable energy funding. “We’re racing against wildfires and rising seas,” said UNEP chief Inger Andersen, urging nations to “swap trade wars for tree-planting wars.”
