The governor expressed gratitude to the World Economic Forum for their dedication to global stewardship and leadership.

Josh Green, the governor of Hawaii, spoke at the United Nations Economic and Social Council in New York City. He highlighted Hawaii's achievements in sustainability and renewable energy. Hawaii, being an island state, has taken the lead in promoting renewable energy and was the first state to mandate 100% renewable energy for electricity. Despite its small size, Hawaii has a significant impact due to its position in the Pacific. The forum aimed to implement the United Nations' sustainable development goals by 2030.

I'm in Dubai at COP 28, a crucial meeting where the connection between health and climate change will be a key topic. The impact of climate change on food systems, resulting in farmers struggling to grow crops, will also be addressed. The speaker emphasizes the importance of using innovation to address these challenges.

Yesterday, I addressed the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation, emphasizing the importance of significantly reducing our country's accumulated net emissions by 2050 in the context of social and economic development. I also mentioned considering preferential treatment for foreign entities. It is crucial to highlight that Russia is genuinely interested in enhancing international cooperation.

Speaker 0 asks Secretary 1 if they support the administration's goal of cutting US emissions in half by 2030. Secretary 1 confirms their support. Speaker 0 then brings up a past resolution in 1997 where the US shouldn't cut emissions until other countries like China, India, and Mexico do the same. Secretary 1 acknowledges this and states that emissions have increased in those countries as well as globally. Speaker 0 questions if Secretary 1 has abandoned their position, to which Secretary 1 explains that the world has changed since then. Speaker 0 then asks about Secretary 1's previous statements on global emissions and the correct amount of CO2. Secretary 1 explains the need to reduce emissions and control current levels. Speaker 0 presses for a specific amount, but Secretary 1 says it changes daily. The conversation continues with Speaker 0 challenging Secretary 1's views on climate change and the cost of addressing it. Secretary 1 defends their position and mentions the consensus among scientists.

The climate crisis is a health crisis, as we've learned in recent years. Air pollution alone causes 7 million deaths annually, surpassing the entire COVID pandemic over three years. That's equivalent to one person dying every five seconds. Climate change affects every aspect of our health and daily lives. We need a health-centered approach to address this urgent issue and protect our way of living, breathing, and moving. The appointment is an opportunity to emphasize the urgency we face.

The speaker represents civil society and shares a personal passion for the ocean, tracing her fascination from Jacques Cousteau to becoming a deep worker submersible pilot. On a first dive, she saw a plastic hanger at the bottom of the ocean, which steered her toward focusing on the high seas, the 45% of the planet that belongs to everyone as our global commons under UNCLOS. She notes the historical arc from May and Emperor Justinius through the Magna Carta to the Law of the Sea Convention in 1982. The high seas are under peril for many reasons, including the shrinking Arctic ice and the opening of the northern passage, which will require future discussion and focus. Why we should care about the ocean: billions of tons of fish are caught each year, and about a third of the fish harvested are used to feed livestock, such as chickens, making them taste more like fish. She highlights unsustainable fishing practices and the aid of advanced extractive technologies. She references a map of one of the largest fishing nets in the world capable of containing 12 Boeing 747s. The World Bank estimates that poor ocean management leads to approximately $50,000,000,000 in lost revenue annually. She mentions a real example: tuna was sold last year for $1,700,000. She also points to Palau’s policy—closing its waters to shark finning and fin soup—and how it transformed a fin-related value from about $200 per fin into tourism-generated value of about $1,900,000 over their lifetime, a point raised by the President. The Teramar project is introduced to connect people to the global oceans, the high seas, and to make the oceans belong to everyone. It offers a passport, a daily online newspaper, an education platform, a government structure, and a way to connect to oceans as never before. The phrase “Fish do not vote, but we do” emphasizes civic engagement in ocean stewardship. The aim is for every politician to end up with a policy framework and a decision on how they treat the oceans, with the hope that sustainability will be ensured because “without money at the bottom, and without [it] it’s not going to work.” She advocates for the United Nations to lead, calling it the right place with global reach to create a sustainable development goal for the UN, a planetary mandate for the next fifteen years on how we treat our oceans. She urges all people—7,000,000,000 of us—to sign up, obtain a passport, and make our voices heard so that the UN and ambassadors understand what we want, and so that politicians know that “no sustainable ocean means we won’t vote them back into power.”

Our food systems could save millions of lives per year if we implement policies to improve diets and fight climate change. I am very pleased that over 130 countries have signed the COP28 UAE Declaration on Climate and Health. Together, we can protect and promote the health of both people and the planet.

The speaker states that they partnered with Google because, initially, Googling "climate change" yielded "incredibly distorted information" at the top of search results. As a result of the partnership, UN resources now appear at the top of Google searches for climate change. The speaker asserts that they "own the science" related to climate change and believe "the world should know it." The speaker also indicates that the platforms themselves are taking action on this issue.

Today, we're launching the United States Ocean Climate Action Plan, which aims to utilize the ocean's immense potential to combat the climate crisis.

We need to communicate effectively about climate change by addressing it as pollution. The focus should be on eliminating pollution rather than getting caught up in the broader climate dialogue. It's essential to unite all nations, regardless of differences, to tackle this issue collaboratively.

A speaker asks the Deputy Secretary of Energy how much global temperatures would decrease if the U.S. spent $50 trillion to become carbon neutral by 2050. The Deputy Secretary states that every country needs to act, and the U.S. accounts for 13% of global emissions. The speaker repeats the question, but the Deputy Secretary says it's a global problem and the U.S. needs to reduce its emissions. The speaker asks how much of a reduction would result if the U.S. does its part. The Deputy Secretary reiterates that the U.S. is 13% of global emissions, and if the U.S. went to zero emissions, that would be 13%. The speaker accuses the Deputy Secretary of wanting to spend $50 trillion without knowing if it will reduce world temperatures.

Food systems contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and global disease burden. Transforming food systems by promoting healthier, plant-based diets could save millions of lives annually. The World Health Organization (WHO) is dedicated to assisting countries in developing and implementing policies to improve diets and combat climate change. The speaker is pleased that more than 130 countries have signed the COP 28 UAE declaration on climate and health, emphasizing the importance of protecting and promoting the health of both people and the planet.

We partnered with Google to address the issue of distorted information on climate change. When searching for climate change, Google now provides UN resources at the top of the results. We believe it is important to be proactive in sharing accurate scientific information. This is a significant challenge that requires active involvement from all sectors of society.

The United States ratified the Kingali Amendment, which aims to significantly reduce the production of super potent substances.

The UN's 30 by 30 agenda aims to seize 30% of all land and water on Earth, disregarding private property rights. The European Union is implementing it, and California and Joe Biden are using similar language, mentioning conserving 30% of lands and waters by 2030. The speaker claims this isn't about conservation but about taking, facilitated in the US by the sustains act, which allows the government to receive private funds for conservation programs. This act assigns value to environmental services provided by privately owned land, such as pollination, photosynthesis, and clean air/water, monetizing them through partnerships between private investors and the government, without landowner consent. The speaker asserts this is a seizing of American assets aligned with the UN's goals, without public consent or input. Representatives, according to the World Economic Forum, are now solely responsible, without needing to consult the public.

Climate change is a major concern, with the government prioritizing it over other threats like Russia or China. Activists have significant influence, and the issue has permeated all levels of government. Some link climate change to population control, believing it's a tactic to limit people's impact on the environment. This connection may not be obvious to everyone, but it's a key goal for those advocating for climate action.

The inflation reduction passed a year ago has put the US back on the map as a global climate leader. However, concerns arise that the momentum may change after the 2024 elections. Speaker 1 believes that no politician can halt the ongoing transition towards addressing climate change. This transition is driven by scientific evidence and is not influenced by politics or ideology. It is crucial for everyone to contribute to this transition as it directly affects the air we breathe, pollution levels, farming, living conditions, children, and disease.

The speaker states that the most significant aspect of their policy decisions is that their values have not changed. They mention the Green New Deal as an example, stating they have always believed the climate crisis is real and urgent. They claim to have worked on applying metrics, including deadlines, and set goals for the United States and the globe for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The speaker asserts that this value has not changed.
