More action needed on climate change – EU Ambassador

EU Ambassador to Guyana, René van Nes is adamant that there should be less talk and more action in addressing climate change that is threatening the world.

He endorsed the sentiments of President Irfaan Ali who has been lobbying for a holistic approach to be taken towards this issue as global leaders prepare for the United Nations Conference of the Parties (COP28) later this year in the United Arab Emirates.

van Nes brought up the subject during a press briefing on Friday on the European Union trade mission slated for November as he posited that time should not be wasted since many countries continue to feel the brunt of climate change, citing the prolonged El Nino period.
