Multilateralism Works: Climate Change and Percent

multilateralism works: Now the coral coverage reaches 13.16 percent at the scenic area and 30 percent to 40 percent at the diving area, according to Global Times China. Xinhua/Yang Guanyu The ongoing 25th session of the Conference of the Parties COP25 to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change in Madrid has become an example of how multilateralism works, though the United States formally initiated the process to withdraw from the 2015 Paris Agreement . As the global environment is facing an uncertain future due to the ever increasingly visible climate change, multilateral efforts are needed to address the challenge, and China is playing a widely-recognized active role. Apart from leading groups of tourists on underwater excursions, some 100 diving instructors here also volunteer to help with coral reefs maintenance activities, such as transplanting corals to the designated restoration areas. Time for action The phrase time for action is literally everywhere in Madrid after the organizers chose it as the motto for the conference and as its hashtag on Twitter. Days before the conference, the United Nations Environment Program UNEP released a report, saying that the ever-rising greenhouse emissions are putting the Earth on course for a temperature rise of 3.2 degrees Celsius by the end of this century, rather than 2 degrees Celsius goal. And it really is time to act to address the climate change as data have repeatedly stressed the urgency of swift actions. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
