Shehbaz Sharif Champions Climate Action at COP29: Pakistan's Call for Global Support
Islamabad: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has returned to Pakistan after attending the 29th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP29) held in Azerbaijan. During this significant international conference, he represented Pakistan and emphasized key points regarding the challenges of climate change while advocating for the rights of developing nations.
Highlighting Pakistan's Stance at the Conference
At COP29, the Prime Minister shed light on the devastating impact of climate change in Pakistan, particularly the recent natural disasters and their far-reaching consequences. He reminded world leaders that developing countries, especially nations like Pakistan, are the most vulnerable to climate change, despite contributing only a small fraction to global carbon emissions.
Shehbaz Sharif called on the international community to take urgent and concrete measures to financially support developing countries in their efforts to enhance resilience against climate-related challenges. He stressed that without global cooperation, these nations will continue to face severe consequences.
Pakistan’s Environmental Initiatives and Global Collaboration
In his address, the Prime Minister highlighted Pakistan’s efforts, such as the "Green Initiative" and the "Billion Tree Tsunami" project, which reflect the country's commitment to environmental conservation. He underscored that while Pakistan is leading the way in climate protection measures, it requires international assistance and resources to scale up these efforts.
“We must collectively find solutions to the climate crisis because this issue is not confined to any single country but poses a threat to the entire world,” he stated during his address.
Bilateral Meetings and Agreements
During his visit, the Prime Minister also engaged in several bilateral meetings with world leaders, where he discussed potential investment opportunities, climate cooperation, and avenues for strengthening trade relations. He met with the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, where both sides agreed to enhance economic and trade cooperation, deepening ties between the two nations.
Positive Reception in Pakistan
The Prime Minister’s successful participation in COP29 has been met with appreciation from the public and experts in Pakistan. Analysts noted that Shehbaz Sharif’s presence not only helped highlight Pakistan's climate policies on a global platform but also garnered international attention and support for the country’s initiatives.
Conclusion
Pakistan's participation in COP29 is expected to drive the international community towards providing more financial resources and support to developing countries, enabling them to better cope with the effects of climate change. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Pakistan has once again sent a strong message to the world about its commitment to environmental protection.
