We must bring people together, not drive them apart. Too many are left behind. Governments must uphold democratic values that reflect the voices of all people of all ages & backgrounds. Human rights are the compass, pointing the way to justice & a better future for all.

Climate extremes are already impacting food yields today. At #COP30, Food and Agriculture Organization is working with countries & partners to place agriculture and food security at the centre of negotiations - @FAOClimate Director Kaveh Zahedi. fao.org/newsroom/detai…

The hard truth is that the world has failed to ensure global warming remains below 1.5°C. We need a paradigm shift to limit a temporary overshoot’s magnitude & duration & quickly drive it down. #COP30

My message to leaders at the #COP30 Climate Conference: We can choose to lead – or be led to ruin. Choose speed, scale & solidarity. Choose to make this the turning point. Stand with science. Stand for justice & future generations.

The United Nations will not give up on the 1.5 degrees goal. The challenge is immense, but the choices are clear. We need to move faster – and move together. Let's ignite a decade of #ClimateAction acceleration & delivery. #COP30

At the 48th Codex Alimentarius Commission, we reaffirm that #FoodSafety is a shared global responsibility. Science, innovation & solidarity must continue guiding our collective action to protect consumers & to build resilient, inclusive & sustainable agrifood systems. #CodexCAC48

On #WorldScienceDay, we reaffirm that science is essential to transform agrifood systems, strengthen resilience and tackle the climate crisis. We must scale up science-based solutions to safeguard our planet and ensure a sustainable future for all. #COP30
