The United Nations has declared climate change the defining issue of our time. UN Secretary-General António Guterres has repeatedly called on us all to be leaders in the fight against climate change. We agree that it’s time we all commit to immediate climate action. That’s why our theme for UN Day 2019 is “Our Planet. Our Future.”
