“As the home of one-sixth of humanity and the world’s largest generation of young people, India can make or break the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals. India’s success in translating the Sustainable Development Goals into action will mean the difference between success and failure for up to half of the global Sustainable Development Goal targets – far more than any other country.”

“So, we need a historical pact in which developed countries strongly support with financial and technical resources emerging economies, to allow for combined efforts of the two, with extra requirements from developed countries to allow us to defeat climate change, and to keep the temperature under control if possible, and I would say, it is necessary, at 1.5 degrees.”

“COP27 in Cairo will demand strong leadership from India, as we accelerate implementation of the Paris Agreement. I count on India to participate at the highest level, and to deliver a balanced outcome that recognizes the importance of adaptation, mitigation and finance.

Secretary-General António Guterres today (19 Oct) attended a tribute to the victims of the 26 November 2008 attacks at the Taj Mahal Palace hotel in Mumbai.
Guterres, who arrived in India after midnight for his first visit to the country in his second term as Secretary-General, paid tributes to the victims of the terror attacks accompanied by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and deputy Devendra Fadnavis.
He placed a floral wreath at the 26/11 attacks memorial.
Later, during a speech at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, the Secretary-General pointed out that as the home of one-sixth of humanity and the world’s largest generation of young people, “India can make or break the 2030 Agenda and the SDGs.”
Guterres said, “this is the moment in which we will be defeated by climate change forever, if there is not a historical pact between developed countries and emerging economies.”
He said, “we need a historical pact in which developed countries strongly support with financial and technical resources emerging economies, to allow for combined efforts of the two, with extra requirements from developed countries to allow us to defeat climate change, and to keep the temperature under control if possible, and I would say, it is necessary, at 1.5 degrees.”
The Secretary-General said the upcoming COP27 in Cairo “will demand strong leadership from India, as we accelerate implementation of the Paris Agreement.”
Tomorrow, the Secretary-General will meet the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, and will also visit a model project site, which has recently been declared India’s first solar powered village.
