"Don't give up under any circumstance." That was António Guterres' message to young climate activists from around the world at the #COP27 climate conference in Egypt. un.org/en/climatechan…

We need peace, now more than ever. In 2023, let’s put peace at the heart of our words and actions.

Let's honour our Mother Earth 🌎 on #EarthDay! Taking inspiration from words of wisdom by Sri Chinmoy listentonature.net 🌳🌄

Great to be part of today's launch of global roadmap for #cleancooking transition at #HLPF2023 ! Strategic determination to build commitments & investment for this "orphan issue" affecting the health of 2.3bn people and our planet. Let's do it! See UN-Energy.org

Inspiring story by UN GA President Csaba Kőrösi : climate action #SDG13 almost didn’t happen! Govts opposed in 2015 talks but his 16-yr-old daughter said Go back & tell them they don’t have the right to play w/ our future! Govts were shocked but applauded-Goal13 was born that day!

Excited to share my interview on #Earthkeepers podcast about my 30yrs United Nations and new book I edited Listen to #nature by Sri Chinmoy, foreword by #janegoodall. Thx to Forrest Inslee for a deep conversation about #earth care! 🌎

We’ll be having an event on 17 Sept on #EnergyCompacts as a high-impact initiative as part of #SDG Acceleration Day - join us!

I am excited that UN-Energy and Sustainable Energy for All | #SDG7BeBold have officially unveiled the Energy Compacts Annual Progress Report 2023. At an event this morning at the United Nations headquarters Haoliang Xu and I unveiled the findings of this report. Here is a thread of key takeaways from the launch (1/4) pic.x.com/MfG5WMjkIv

Good to be at the United Nations today and hear the real voices of NGOs, youth, business and many people working on how to tackle huge #SDG and #climate challenges.

Looking forward to this event tomorrow (Sunday, 17 Sept, 10am EDT) with energy ministers, activists & leaders on how we can use the #EnergyCompacts to take a just energy transition to the scale and pace so desperately needed. Join us at the link below. #SDG7 🌎

The United Nations Charter – which entered into force 78 years ago today – is rooted in a spirit of determination to heal divisions, repair relations & build peace. We are a divided world. We can and must be united nations. #UNDay

On #UNDay, as the world struggles with two major wars, I am inspired by these wise words by Sri Chinmoy: O dreamers of peace, come. Let us walk together. O lovers of peace, come. Let us run together. O servers of peace, come. Let us grow together.

So moved to watch the premiere at @DocNYCFest of Between Me and the Sea, BEAUTIFUL shortdoc co-produced by my friend and former United Nations staffer mohsin mohi ud din with Syrian refugee Fatima as part of #MeWeSyria program. Her story set her free. View online at DocNYC website.

A strong To Do list for #COP28 from United Nations SG, including big investments in renewables, #energy for all and energy efficiency - #SDG7. Now results are needed.

Happy 90th to my hero, Jane Goodall!

Happy #EarthDay2025! As we honour our Mother Earth, let's remember: "Inside hope there is power" & "Nature's beauty teaches optimism to the aspiring heart." -- from Listen to Nature by Sri Chinmoy. listentonature.net
