The Kuwait Environment Protection Society announced that dozens of regional, Arab and international environmental civil society organizations have responded to the global environmental appeal to support the \u201ctruce initiative\u201d recently proposed by the Republic of Azerbaijan to take place before, during and after the \u201cConference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change COP 29,\u201d which it will host from November 11-22 in the capital, Baku.
\nIn this regard, Dr. Wajdan Al-Aqab, President of the Society, said, \u201cFollowing our meeting with His Excellency the Ambassador of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Emil Karimov, in the State of Kuwait, at his invitation to the Society to discuss arrangements for its participation in the Climate Summit in Baku 2024, the Republic of Azerbaijan, President of the 29th Conference of the Parties (COP), presented its appeal under the name (COP Truce), which is a global call for a ceasefire that begins one week before the start of the 29th Conference of the Parties and ends one week after its conclusion, during the period between 4-29 November 2024. The appeal contains the basic message of the 29th Conference of the Parties, which is (our confidence that humanity is capable of overcoming problems and joining forces with each other).
\nDr. Al-Aqab explained that \u201cthe world will gather to attend the COP29 climate conference, which is a historic opportunity to strengthen the pillars of global climate action, as climate change affects our only home, Earth, and every country must be steadfast in this battle with the climate.\u201d.
\n\u201cThere are two main reasons behind this initiative,\u201c she said. \u201dThe first is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and environmental damage, as militaries contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions, and are said to be responsible for nearly %6.5 of emissions worldwide annually, which is more than the combined emissions of the aviation and shipping industries. Armed conflicts negatively affect the environment and contribute to soil, water and air pollution, and render areas inaccessible and unusable.\u201d.
\nThe president of the Environment Society pointed out that the second reason is to \u201chighlight the non-political, unified and peaceful nature of the climate change agenda, so that climate talks should not be politicized, but should be unified and serve peace and prosperity for all, and climate change affects our only home, Earth.\u201d.
\nDr. Wajdan Al-Aqab concluded, \u201cBelieving in the role of civil society organizations and the strength of their solidarity, the global environmental appeal and message was initially conveyed to 24 Arab environmental organizations during their participation in the Kuwait Environment Protection Society\u2019s celebration of the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction. All of them announced their support for the initiative. Subsequently, the Kuwait Environment Protection Society leveraged its regional and international membership to convey the initiative and encourage others to join it. It was conveyed to the main groups in the United Nations and the United Nations Environment Programme, as the Society is accredited as an observer, the Global Network of Civil Society Organizations for Disaster Risk Reduction (GNDR), the Arab Network for Environment and Development (RAED), and the Gulf Network of Environmental NGOs.\u201c.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
