U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has urged world leaders to declare states of climate emergency in their countries to spur action to avoid catastrophic global warming. Guterres said that economic recovery packages launched in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic represented an opportunity to accelerate the transition to a low carbon future but he warned this was not happening fast enough. "Carbon dioxide levels are at record highs. Today, we are 1.2 degrees hotter than before the industrial revolution. If we don't change course, we may be headed for a catastrophic temperature rise of more than 3 degrees this century.” About 70 heads of state and government took part in the meeting, which was organized by Britain, the U.N. and France. It took place on the fifth anniversary of the Paris Climate Agreement.
