Nanawagan si Senator Loren Legarda sa mga bansang namemeligro sa kalamidad na agad umaksyon laban sa climate change habang hinihintay ang pagpapatupad ng Paris Agreement on Climate Change.

“We cannot wait for the Agreement to take effect before we take action. We must continue to rally our respective states and the community of nations to take urgent climate action because global warming will not halt as institutions and nations all over the world debate whether to ratify or not,” pahayag ni Legarda sa High-Level Climate Policy Forum ng Climate Vulnerable Forum (CVF) sa Senate Building sa Maynila kahapon.

Binigyang diin ni Legarda, Chair ng Senate Committee on Climate Change at UNISDR Global Champion for Resilience, na hindi dapat makaapekto ang climate change sa pag-unlad ng isang bansa.

“Although we are not major emitters of global greenhouse gas (GHG), we cannot let our respective economies grow through the ways that caused today’s climate crisis; we cannot let human society live in a world fraught with dangers,” dagdag ni Legarda.
