UN chief warns Russia’s war in Ukraine could set back climate goals
SHARE

In a major speech Monday morning, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres warned that Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine could set back the climate agenda and spark a global food crisis.

What they’re saying: “As major economies pursue an ‘all-of-the-above’ strategy to replace Russian fossil fuels, short-term measures might create long-term fossil fuel dependence and close the window to 1.5 degrees,” Guterres said.

By the numbers: The planet has already warmed by about 1.1°C above preindustrial levels, and the latest research shows the 1.5°C threshold could be breached between 2030-2035 based on emissions trends.

The bottom line: The science is clear and so is the math, Guterres said. “We are sleepwalking to climate catastrophe.”
