Of the challenges of the energy sector, he asserted that the pandemic “generated a very negative impact on production, investment and employment.”

Finally, he stated that for the sustainability of the environmental future “a collective commitment is needed to achieve the early and effective implementation of the Paris Agreement.” No one is saved alone on a planet that catches fire, floods, or poisons. We invited efforts to support actions on disaster adaptation and risk reduction, particularly for the most vulnerable communities,” he proposed. At the closure, he considered it essential to “encourage coherence between mitigation actions, adaptation measures and environmental protection, in the light of climate science.” Our commitment is to ensure a fair and inclusive transition to sustainable development,” he concluded.
