Fruitful discussion with United Nations Deputy Secretary-General
Amina J Mohammed today.
We need to finance the transition, this is the focus of COP29. We also need to continue our work on carbon markets.
There is hope that we can reach our goals globally.
The lights are off tonight at our headquarters, in support of #EarthHour .
Every year, the world's largest environmental movement Earth Hour Official reminds us that small actions can make a great difference for our planet.
Turn your lights off and join us!
Ce matin, j'ai eu un excellent échange avec Stéphane Séjourné, ministre 🇫🇷 de l'Europe et des Affaires étrangères sur nos objectifs climatiques.
Nous avons discuté de comment travailler ensemble aux objectifs climatiques en Europe et sur la scène internationale #EUClimateAction

Great to meet my former colleague and friend Luigi Di Maio, 🇪🇺 Special Representative for the Gulf Region today in Brussels.
Close engagement with the Gulf countries is key for accelerating the energy transition, increasing mitigation adaptation and building climate resilience.
Excellent exchange with 🇩🇰 Minister Dan Jørgensen ahead of the Copenhagen Ministerial next week.
We’ve worked together excellently in Dubai, and I’m looking forward to the same 🇪🇺team spirit at COP29.
We discussed climate finance, adaptation and of course climate diplomacy.
