UN Secretary-General António Guterres delivered a stark message at COP28: The world must phase out fossil fuels to avoid climate catastrophe. "The 1.5-degree limit is only possible if we ultimately stop burning all fossil fuels. Not reduce, not abate—phase out," he declared, urging leaders to embrace renewable energy as the new economic lifeline. 💡
Guterres didn’t hold back when addressing fossil fuel companies: "Your old road is rapidly aging… Lead the transition to renewables." He called on governments to regulate carbon pricing, end subsidies for polluters, and tax windfall profits to accelerate green investments. 🌱
With the clock ticking, his words resonate globally: "The road to climate sustainability is also the only viable pathway to economic sustainability." Could this be the wake-up call industries need? 🤔
