“Let us be heard on every beach and every roadside. Let us be heard in Beijing, in Delhi, in Johannesburg, in London, in Moscow, in New York, in Paris, in Rio… Let us be heard in every village, in every town, in every city of the world. Let us be heard on the airwaves. Let the media disseminate our message. Let us ensure that there is no discourse on security, on trade, on human rights, on development… unless we are also addressing climate change.”
With these words in his opening address, President James Michel opened the Alliance of Small Island States (AOSIS) ministerial meeting on Climate Change at the Savoy Resort at Beau Vallon this morning.
