Timmermans: The World Must Now Say That It Is Enough

The latest UN climate report shows how “immensely urgent” the fight against climate change is, says European Commissioner Frans Timmermans. The whole world must participate in this struggle. But, in addition, measures must be accelerated.

At the same time, it is not too late to prevent us from losing all grip on climate change, thinks Timmermans, who is responsible for climate policy.

The second man from the European Commission has been warning for some time against despondency, the climate of which he believes has more to fear than scepticism.

At the next climate summit next autumn, the world will have to say that enough is enough, Timmermans tweets.
