COP29 是在残酷的一年结束时召开的——这一年被创纪录的气温烙烤,被气候灾难所伤痕累累,而这一切都是在排放量持续上升的情况下进行的。

财务一直是第一要务。

被债务淹没、饱受灾难重创并在可再生能源革命中落后的发展中国家迫切需要资金。

在 COP29 上达成协议对于保持 1.5 摄氏度的限制是绝对必要的。各国已经做到了。

我曾希望在融资和缓解方面取得更雄心勃勃的成果,以应对我们面临的巨大挑战。

但这项协议为构建提供了一个基础。

它必须按时得到充分兑现。承诺必须迅速转化为现金。所有国家必须齐心协力,确保实现这一新目标的顶端。

COP29 还建立在去年在减排和加速能源转型方面取得的进展之上。它就碳市场达成了协议。

在不确定和分裂的地缘政治格局中,这是一场复杂的谈判。我赞扬所有努力建立共识的人。您表明,以《巴黎协定》为中心的多边主义可以找到解决最困难问题的道路。

我呼吁各国政府将这项协议视为基础,并在此基础上再接再厉。

首先,各国必须按照承诺,在 COP30 之前推出与 1.5 摄氏度相一致的新经济范围国家气候行动计划 (NDC)。G20 国家是最大的排放国,必须发挥领导作用。

这些新计划必须涵盖所有排放和整个经济,加速逐步淘汰化石燃料,并为 COP28 上商定的能源转型目标做出贡献——抓住廉价、清洁可再生能源的好处。

化石燃料时代的终结是经济上的必然。新的国家计划必须加速这一转变,并有助于确保它带来正义。

其次,我们需要迅速采取行动,兑现在《未来公约》中做出的承诺。特别是关于对债务采取有效行动;增加优惠融资和改善可及性;以及大幅提高多边开发银行的贷款能力,并进行适当的资本重组。

我感谢阿塞拜疆政府的热情款待,感谢 COP29 主席穆赫塔尔·巴巴耶夫 (Mukhtar Babayev) 和他的团队的辛勤工作。

我感谢《联合国气候变化框架公约》执行秘书西蒙·斯蒂尔(Simon Stiell)和他的同事们的大力支持,当然也感谢联合国团队。

我赞扬所有来到巴库推动各党派实现最大雄心和正义的代表、年轻人和公民社会代表。

最后,我直接向他们传达了一条信息。继续努力。联合国与你们同在。我们的斗争仍在继续。我们永远不会放弃。

气候关键时刻已经到来。COP29 达成了一项艰苦的协议。此时,科学告诉我们,如果不采取行动,气候影响只会进一步加剧。COP29 现在已经奠定了基础,我们现在必须迅速在此基础上进行建设。然而,我们必须明确,雄心和承诺的好坏取决于支持它们的行动和交付。因此,我们需要在金融、减缓和适应方面看到更加透明、更具包容性的进展。联合国环境规划署将继续与各方和利益相关者合作,确保以最有效的方式调动气候资金,为最需要的社区带来最大的实地影响。

接下来,所有的目光都转向了 NDC 3.0 2 月的截止日期。所有会员国现在都必须雄心勃勃,以确保我们能够实现 1.5°C 的承诺。NDC 计划可以释放一波有弹性的经济增长、新的就业机会并应对生活成本挑战。G20 必须发挥领导作用,而且要迅速发挥领导作用。通往贝伦的道路必须是一条协调一致的行动和兑现承诺的道路。没有其他办法。


经过两周的紧张谈判,COP29 已落下帷幕。其结果是肯定了全球集体应对的必要性。虽然速度可能无法完全匹配挑战的紧迫性,但它表明《巴黎协定》对于气候行动仍然至关重要。

最新一轮的全球气候行动谈判在碳市场等关键问题上取得了有意义的进展,这些问题有可能带来变革。

缔约方还同意每年向发展中国家提供 3000 亿美元,以支持其气候雄心。由发达国家领导的努力。

但这只是一个地板,而不是天花板。正如我们在过去两周里反复从发展中国家以及专家和研究人员那里听到的那样,采取有意义的气候行动的真正成本要高得多。

至关重要的是,国际社会继续以巴库的成果为基础,帮助这些国家应对气候变化带来的挑战,实现绿色、公正的转型。

气候变化不分国界,气候融资也不是慈善事业。现在投资使每个人都受益——今天采取行动就是为所有人投资一个更安全、更公平的未来。

我们可以而且必须做得更好。

通往 COP30 的道路很短。各国将带着新的国家行动计划抵达巴西贝伦,以保持 1.5 目标的活力。他们的雄心壮志必须与真正的公共和私人金融投资以及协调一致的国际伙伴关系相匹配。只有每个国家都采取迅速而大胆的行动,才能减缓气候变化的稳步发展。

联合国开发计划署亲眼目睹了发展中国家的气候雄心,包括动员自身资源。然而,我们仍然担心,尽管他们做出了努力,但他们面临的承诺兑现速度缓慢、债务负担加重以及投资于国家优先事项的财政空间不断缩小。

在参加 COP30 的路上,联合国开发计划署气候承诺作为联合国气候工作的领导,将继续与 100 多个国家和地区密切合作,提出雄心勃勃的计划,以保持 1.5 摄氏度的目标,建设未来的经济和社会。

COP26观察:半杯满还是半杯空?

COP29 comes at the close of a brutal year – a year seared by record temperatures, and scarred by climate disaster, all as emissions continue to rise.

Finance has been priority number one.

Developing countries swamped by debt, pummelled by disasters, and left behind in the renewables revolution, are in desperate need of funds.

An agreement at COP29 was absolutely essential to keep the 1.5 degree limit alive. And countries have delivered.

I had hoped for a more ambitious outcome – on both finance and mitigation – to meet the great challenge we face. 

But this agreement provides a base on which to build.

It must be honoured in full and on time. Commitments must quickly become cash. All countries must come together to ensure the top-end of this new goal is met.

COP29 also builds on progress made last year on emissions reductions and accelerating the energy transition. And it reaches agreement on carbon markets.

This was a complex negotiation in an uncertain and divided geopolitical landscape. I commend everyone who worked hard to build consensus. You have shown that multilateralism – centred on the Paris Agreement – can find a path through the most difficult issues.

I appeal to governments to see this agreement as a foundation – and build on it.

First, countries must deliver new economy-wide national climate action plans – or NDCs – aligned with 1.5 degrees, well ahead of COP30 – as promised. The G20 countries, the biggest emitters, must lead.

These new plans must cover all emissions and the whole economy, accelerate fossil fuel phase out, and contribute to the energy transition goals agreed at COP28 – seizing the benefits of cheap, clean renewables.

The end of the fossil fuel age is an economic inevitability. New national plans must accelerate the shift, and help to ensure it comes with justice.

Second, we need swift action to deliver on commitments made in the Pact for the Future. Particularly on effective action on debt; increasing concessional finance and improving access; and substantially increasing the lending capacity of the Multilateral Development Banks, with adequate recapitalization. 

I thank the government of Azerbaijan for their hospitality – and COP29 President Mukhtar Babayev, and his team, for their hard work.

I am grateful to UNFCCC Executive Secretary Simon Stiell and his colleagues for their superb support – and of course the United Nations team.

And I commend all the delegates, young people, and civil society representatives who came to Baku to push parties for maximum ambition and justice. 

I end with a message directly to them. Keep it up. The United Nations is with you. Our fight continues. And we will never give up.

Climate crunch time is here. COP29 has delivered a hard-fought deal. This is at a time when science tells us that without action, climate impacts will only intensify further. COP29 has now secured a foundation on which we must now rapidly build. However, we must be clear, ambition and promises are only as good as the action and delivery that backs them up. We therefore need to see more transparent, inclusive progress on finance, on mitigation and on adaptation. The UN Environment Programme will continue to work with all parties and stakeholders to ensure that climate finance is mobilised in the most effective way, with maximum impact on the ground for communities that need it the most.

Next, all eyes turn to the NDC 3.0 February deadline. All member states must now stretch ambition to ensure we can live up to the 1.5°C promise. The NDC plans can unleash a wave of resilient economic growth, new jobs and address cost of living challenges. The G20 must lead, and lead quickly. The road to Belém must be one of concerted action and living up to commitments. There is no other way.

After two weeks of intense negotiations, COP29 has come to a close. The outcome is an affirmation of the need for a collective global response. While the pace might not fully match the urgency of the challenge, it demonstrates that the Paris Agreement remains essential for climate action.

This latest round of global climate action negotiations has resulted in meaningful progress on key issues such as carbon markets, which have the potential to be transformative.

The Parties also agreed to US$300 billion per year to developing countries to support their climate ambitions. An effort to be led by developed countries. 

But this is just a floor and not a ceiling. As we have heard repeatedly from developing countries, as well as experts and researchers over the past two weeks, the true cost of meaningful climate action is much higher.

It is critical that the international community continues to build on Baku’s outcome to help these nations confront the challenges posed by climate change and achieve a green, just transition.

Climate change does not respect borders, and climate finance is not charity. Investing now benefits everyone—acting today is an investment in a safer, more equitable future for all.

We can, and must, do better.

The road to COP30 is short. Countries are to arrive to Belem, Brazil with new national action plans to keep the 1.5 goal alive. Their ambitions must be matched by genuine public and private financial investments and coordinated international partnerships. Only swift and bold action by each and every country can slow the steady march of climate change.  

UNDP sees first-hand the climate ambitions of developing countries, including the mobilization of their own resources. Yet, we remain concerned that, despite their efforts, they face promises slow on delivery, growing debt burdens, and shrinking fiscal space to invest in their national priorities.

On the way to COP30, UNDP’s Climate Promise – as the lead of UN climate efforts – will continue to work closely with over 100 countries and territories to put forward ambitious plans to keep 1.5 degrees Celsius in sight, building the economies and societies of the future.
