He stressed that the Paris Agreement remains the most reliable framework for stabilizing the global climate but argued its weaknesses stem from political choices rather than flaws in the accord itself. The Pope called for stronger solidarity among nations and increased support for climate-exposed regions, particularly in the Global South. <\/p>\n
With COP30 entering its final week, he urged countries to overcome divisions and avoid treating nature as a competitive resource. The absence of the US from the summit has added to disagreements over climate ambition, trade policies and financing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
