"We cannot make a mockery out of multilateralism. Limiting overshoot and returning below 1.5°C is not only possible, but an obligation. UNGA 81 must ensure that 1.5°C remains the North Star of climate action." Watch our AOSIS + LDCs #UNGA81 Presser now! piped.video/kWlF-upTq78

The planet’s life-support systems are on the brink, leaving no room for hesitation. In the words of one of our key negotiators Ambassador Thomas, holding global warming to 1.5°C is our non-negotiable, our “north star”—it is time to deliver on the targets the world agreed upon.

Understanding Climate Tipping Points |#SIDS are on the frontlines, but climate tipping points don’t recognize borders. Exceeding 1.5°C risks setting off irreversible chain reactions that threaten global stability. What endangers islands today destabilizes the world tomorrow.

AOSIS wishes to emphasize a simple but fundamental principle: the ownership of this reform process lies with Member States alone. For SIDS, our circumstances are unique, but our uniqueness should not lead to us being overlooked, or at worst, forgotten.”

“For SIDS, our cities and towns tell our story. They are where opportunity is created, culture is preserved and communities come together. They are home to our people, our ports, our hospitals, our schools, our businesses and our governments.. the beating heart of our societies.”

Asking the nations on the frontlines of climate change to fund their own resilience with the narrowest budgets is a profound injustice. The Mid-Term Review must therefore reaffirm a simple principle: resilience requires affordable finance.

This is especially critical for Small Island Developing States, as these goals directly drive the Antigua and Barbuda Agenda, a program of action, and guiding North Star for resilient, sustainable prosperity in Small Island Developing State
