What's the Austrian World Summit?

The local weather convention is going down in Vienna on 14 June 2022, precisely 30 years after the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the place the United Nations Framework Conference on Local weather Change (UNFCCC) treaty was signed.

Since 1992, many speeches on the matter have been held, many guarantees have been made, however emissions proceed to rise and the local weather disaster and the problem of air pollution are extra urgent than ever.

"Dealing with a battle in Europe has shattered long-held beliefs and now provides a brand new dimension to the subject of local weather change. The local weather disaster in addition to battle leaves us overwhelmed with fears and worries of what's to return," the summit's web site states.

At this yr’s convention, the organisers hope to ship a robust sign to the world, that there's hope for peace and a sustainable future.

"We need to look again and study from the previous, however transfer ahead enthusiastically. Individuals must know that change is feasible – and the way we're going to do it," they conclude.
