More than 7,000 delegates from 182 countries are scheduled to take part in the sixth session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA-6) which runs through Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Delegates are convening in the Kenyan capital as climate change intensifies, a million species face the risk of extinction, and pollution remains among the world\u2019s leading causes of premature death. \u201cWe\u2019ve all felt and seen the impacts \u2013 baking heat, intense storms, vanishing nature and species, failing soils, deadly dirty air, oceans stuffed with plastic waste and much more,\u201d Inger Andersen, Executive Director of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), said in her opening press statement. Although these impacts fall hardest upon the poor and vulnerable, who are least responsible for them, nobody is immune, she added.<\/p>\n<p>The\u202fUNEA is the world\u2019s highest decision-making body on the environment and its membership includes all 193 UN Member States. It was created in 2012 as an outcome of the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20), held in Brazil. The Assembly meets every two years to set priorities for global environmental policies and develop international environmental law. Decisions and resolutions taken there also define the work of UNEP, which is based in Nairobi.<\/p>\n<p>This year, focus will be on negotiating resolutions on issues ranging from nature-based solutions and highly hazardous pesticides to land degradation and drought. The changing environmental aspects of minerals and metals will also be up for intense discussion. \u201cWe are living in a time of turmoil. And I know that in this room, there are people who are, or who know, those deeply affected by this turmoil.\u202fOur response must demonstrate that multilateral diplomacy can deliver,\u201d said Leila Benali, the UNEA-6 President and Morocco\u2019s Minister of Energy Transition and Sustainable Development.\u00a0Addressing the opening plenary, Ms. Andersen noted that \u201cthe voices of the younger generation\u201d are also represented at the meeting, alongside those from civil society, Indigenous People, women, business, and others.<\/p>\n<p>At UNEA-6, countries will consider some 19 resolutions, part of a broader push to spur more ambitious multilateral environmental action. The resolutions cover issues such as solar radiation modification; effective, inclusive, and sustainable multilateral actions towards climate justice; sound management of chemicals and waste, and sand and dust storms.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Andersen listed some of the benefits they can help achieve, such as accelerating the transition to net-zero emissions, improving air and water quality, and building resilience to drought. She urged delegates to craft strong resolutions \u201cthat can bring real impact. That address the needs of many people already struggling under the burden of the triple planetary crisis. And that shore up the environmental foundations upon which a peaceful, equitable and sustainable future will rest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/news.un.org\/en\/story\/2024\/02\/1146967\">The UN<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/yleinen\/world-unites-at-un-environment-assembly-to-combat-triple-planetary-crisis\/\">World unites at UN Environment Assembly to combat \u2018triple planetary crisis\u2019<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22,1],"tags":[13561,13562,606,607,608,655],"class_list":["post-125698","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-yleinen","tag-triple-planetary-crisis","tag-un-environment-assembly","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien","tag-yleinen"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=125698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125698\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=125698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=125698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=125698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
