COVENTRY (IDN) – Species are being lost at about a thousand times the natural rate of extinction. This is faster than at any other period in human history. Ecosystems – the vital systems on which all life depends – are being degraded across the globe.

貧困からジェンダー、気候変動、不平等、財政格差の縮小に至るまで、世界のあらゆる難題に対する持続可能な解決策を加速する「行動の１０年」の一環として、国連は１月末に新たなツールを活用することにした。つまり、インドの魅惑的なラジャスタン州の風光明媚な州都ジャイプルで行われた世界最大の文学フェスティバルだ。ジャイプルは、その豪華な宮殿や史跡の多くに使われている石がピンク色であるために、「ピンクの街」として知られている。
フェスティバルは１月２７日、国連の現地コーディネーターであるレナータ・デッサリエン氏をゲストに迎えた。デッサリエン氏は、気候変動に関する特別セッションの参加者らに対して、「国連は、破壊的な気候変動のペースを遅らせるために最大限の努力をしています。」と語った。国連は気候危機に対して十分に行動できているかとの質問に対しては、「国連は『世界警察』として機能することはできません。」と回答した。…
