The global fertilizer shortage is already affecting farmers around the world. We cannot allow it to morph into a global food shortage.

I welcome yesterday’s signing of an agreement between the Federal Government of Ethiopia and the Tigrayan leadership.

This is a critical first step towards ending the devastating two-year old conflict in which the lives and livelihoods of so many Ethiopians have been lost.

As of today, 10 million metric tonnes of grain have been shipped as part of the Black Sea Grain Initiative.

It has taken just 3 months to reach this milestone.

Despite all the obstacles, the initiative is working. It is our collective responsibility to keep it working.

Those on the front lines of the climate crisis are at the back of the line for support.

This is unacceptable.

Adaptation to climate impacts must be treated with a seriousness that reflects the equal worth of all members of the human family.‌

A surge in disinformation, online bullying & hate speech - particularly against women journalists - is impeding the work of the media.

Governments must do more to protect journalists & stand up for truth, justice & human rights.

More than 70 journalists have been killed this year for simply fulfilling their vital role in society. Most of these crimes go unsolved.

We must end the common culture of impunity and enable journalists to do their essential work.

Many cities are already leading the transition to renewable energy, setting credible net-zero targets and building climate-resilient infrastructure.

The actions cities take locally to create a sustainable world will reverberate globally.

Unless we change course, the amount of plastic in our ocean could double by 2030.

We must break the habit of single-use plastics & accelerate the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy.

We need to:

end our reliance on fossil fuels

avoid a lock-in of new fossil fuel infrastructure

invest massively in renewables.

We need on all fronts – and we need it now.

Do not take up careers with the climate wreckers.

Climate commitments to net zero are worth zero without the plans, policies and actions to back it up.

Our world cannot afford any more greenwashing, fake movers or late movers.

The climate crisis is not gender neutral.

It aggravates all types of gender-based violence - from physical to psychological and economic.

The knowledge, experience & leadership of women is essential in all efforts.

The horrors of the war in Ukraine should not put on the back burner.

Doubling down on fossil fuels is not the answer.

The only path to energy security, stable power prices & a livable planet lies in accelerating the renewable energy transition.

Trust is the bedrock of every society. When it's chipped away, societies crumble.

We must build trust in the face of a growing infodemic of disinformation & lies.

I call on countries to develop media & information literacy policies that put science, knowledge & facts first.

With divisions and conflicts multiplying, we must use diplomacy, dialogue & negotiation to eliminate the nuclear threat, once and for all.

Disarmament is the only path to save humanity & secure our common future.

If we are not able to reverse the present climate trends, we will be doomed.

I urge all leaders to bring back climate change to the centre of the international debate. My interview with @bbcworld:
