Japan says Paris climate accord could face death if it's shelved to aid economic recovery from Covid-19
Carolina Schmidt, Chile's Minister of Environment and new president of the 2019 UN Climate Change conference , Spain's acting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres pose before the opening ceremony of the COP25 in Madrid, Spain, December 2, 2019.
Under the landmark 2015 Paris accord, nearly 200 nations agreed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in a bid to prevent catastrophic planetary warming. The goal of a 26 percent reduction by the fiscal year ending March 2031 from levels seen in fiscal 2013 was unchanged from five years ago, disappointing climate change campaigners, although the country said it will pursue effort for further cuts.
"Japan takes as a positive development and will strive to create a situation where we can take part in COP26 with our heads held high," Koizumi said.
