While presenting information at the Pacific Islands Forum, UKUNA in charge António Guterres stressed that sea-surface temperature in the south-west Pacific had increased three times more than the average global increase since 1980, reported among other agencies the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO).
He allowed himself bold statements that the ‘sea level rise’ is a phenomenon that puts the Pacific island countries in ‘grave danger’ and called for the world to act and act quickly to deal with this looming disaster.
“The situation is nut’s, climate change due to melting polar ice and rising seas ports threats to humanity that is being cause by humanity herself, threats that are becoming fifty times a hundred for the worst possible scenario and there won’t be a life boat to ferry us all back to the safety of our imaginations. But if we save the Pacific we also save ourselves” he said while coming out of the Geneva facility.
According to another report, the urgent threat posed by sea level rise includes the climate surface temperature crisis with regards to SI states, level amount more raising its likelihood than previously anticipated is inside the view. It is the plate of nations. The aim was to document the impact of the global warming-niddhi centennial prediction by Jacques.
In spite of this, anger is being directed at the work of the southern ewa system of cultural regions of idosuke wilson regions in the region last year a total conference held within its jurisdiction. Indeed over 200 people died and more than 25 million were affect by 34 storm and flood events during the past year in the region.
Rufino Varea, who is the regional director of the Pacific Islands Climate Action Network, added that the Pacific community, which has contributed little to the climate crisis, is now ‘surviving some of the most brutal impacts of climate change’.
Turning to the climate crisis she notes, Country Director of Action Aid Australia, it is leading to precarity increasing debt in the pacific countries and increasing inequality in eastern gender.
Guterres stressed on the rings of protection that pacific islands have. He also measures that Keep in mind, a 3 degree rise in the temperature could lead to over 15 centimetres to the rise in the sea levels by the mid-century and some areas could experience up to over 30 days of flooding on the coastal regions every year.
He asked the global community to reduce emissions immediately and abandon any fossil fuel usage without delay. Guterres also called for much more scarce financial capacities for the influential actions, whose main aim is to subsidize the population of the submerged country and support vulnerable countries from sea level rise impacts.
What he says is that Australia has committed A$3 billion for climate finance until 2025, but this is less than Australia’s fair share of the stick of about US$100 billion which translates to roughly A$4 billion per year.
The climate crisis will be one of the most pressing issues addressed during the upcoming COP29 Forum scheduled to take place in Azerbaijan this November. Stripping the US$100 billion pledged every year for climate finance, Action Aid Australia and Oxfam Australia have begun advocating to Australia to endorse the new ambitious target of US$1 trillion Climate Finance.
