"Two Years To Save The World": UN Climate Chief's Dire Warning

Simon Stiell said we still have a chance to make greenhouse gas emissions tumble.

The UN Climate Chief, Simon Stiell, stated on Wednesday that governments, business leaders, and development banks have two years to take action to avert far worse climate change.

In a speech at the Chatham House think tank in London, Mr Stiell said, "We still have a chance to make greenhouse gas emissions tumble, with a new generation of national climate plans. But we need these stronger plans now."

Mr Stiell emphasized, "Who exactly has two years to save the world? The answer is every person on this planet."
