moving forward purposefully to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to foster
adaptation efforts, thereby benefiting and supporting the 2030 Agenda.
Negotiations between State-Parties were continuing on Friday afternoon on aspects
of the implementation of the Agreement. “We continue 10 negotiate on a number of
things”, said the President of COP 22, Salaheddine Mezouar, Minister for Foreign
Affairs and Cooperation of Morocco, at a press conference. Welcoming the
outcome of the Conference, UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon noted that all
countries understand that climate action is essential for their security, economic
prosperity and the health and well-being of their citizens. Global cooperation rooted
in strong national action is essential, he noted, saying that no country, irrespective
of its size or strength, is immune from the impacts of climate change, and no country

can afford to tackle the climate challenge alone.

“As the global thermostat continues to rise, the Secretary-General renewed his call

for all countries and all sectors of society to significantly increase their ambition
and redouble their efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions,” said the statement,
adding that the UN chief also called on developed countries to deliver on their
pledge to mobilize $100 billion per year by 2020 in support of climate action by
developing countries. The Marrakech Proclamation calls for “the highest political
commitment to combat climate change” and calls for “strong solidarity with those
countries most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change,” underscoring the need
to support efforts aimed to enhance their adaptive capacity, strengthen resilience
and reduce vulnerability.
