STORYLINE:
On the 50th Anniversary of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), UN chief António Guterres called on leaders to be inspired by past successes for the “huge efforts that are needed now to ensure this, and future generations can live on a sustainable planet,” as the world is “nearing a point of no return.”
In a video message to conference marking the occasion in the Kenyan capital Nairobi today (03 Mar), Guterres said when UNEO was found, “the planet was already showing signs of buckling under the weight of humanity.” He said UNEP offered the world a “new way forward based on a vision for a better, healthier earth built on the pillars of international cooperation.”
Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta urged leaders to support UNEP “because it has without doubt demonstrated its critical role in ensuring a sustainable planet by tackling cross-cutting issues such as climate change, biodiversity loss and plastic pollution.”
UNEP Executive Director Inger Andersen said her Agency was now “at the heart of protecting the asset upon which we all rely, the environment.” She said the world has realized that it cannot “pollute its way to development and clean up later.” She added, “We have a human right to a healthy environment. Youth are demanding change. Governments, cities and regions are acting. Businesses are acting. Investors are acting. None of this was in place 50 years ago.”
The United Nations Environment Programme was conceived in 1972 to spearhead a global effort to minimize humanity's footprint on the planet.
During the next five decades, UNEP said it would take on some of the world's most pressing environmental problems, from climate change to species loss, to pollution.
