123 countries approve climate declaration, Pope's COP28 message: With money

One hundred and twenty-three countries have adopted the COP28 Declaration on Climate and Health, which aims to increase cross-sectoral cooperation, reduce emissions in the health sector and increase financing for climate health. This was announced by the president of COP 28, Sultan Al Jaber.

For the first time in the history of the Cop28 summit, the focus is on health.

About twenty countries, including the United States, France and the United Arab Emirates, called in a joint statement to triple the world's nuclear power capacity by 2050, compared to 2020, to reduce dependence on coal and gas. .

The announcement was made by John Kerry, the US climate envoy, along with several leaders including French President Emmanuel Macron and Belgian Prime Minister Alexander de Croo.

In his message to the COP28 summit in Dubai, the Holy Father appealed to use the money used for weapons and other military expenses to create a global fund to finally eliminate hunger.

"How much energy humanity is wasting on many ongoing wars, as in Israel and Palestine, in Ukraine and in many regions of the world: conflicts that will not solve problems, but will increase them! How many resources wasted on weapons, which destroy lives and destroy the common home!". I make a proposal: "with the money used for weapons and other military expenses we create a global fund to finally eliminate hunger" and carry out activities that promote the sustainable development of the poorest, fighting climate change.
