Addressing the Human Rights Council meeting in Geneva, Bholkar Turk member states asked “Do we really take steps that can protect people from the climate crisis, protect their future and manage natural resources that respect both human rights and the environment?”
His answers were clear, “We’re not trying around them,” we’re not trying anywhere. “
The Human Rights High Commissioner emphasized that climate change is a serious threat to human rights, especially the weak class, it can also become a powerful opportunity to move forward.
Its primary basis is “justified change” means to remove activities that damage the environment.
He said, “Now we need a roadmap that can show us how we can think of our society, economy and politics in a new way.”
Right
The Council had the right to respect the relationship between human rights and climate change.
Mostafa Kamal Gue, senior officer of the International Labor Organization (ILO), said, “Human rights of respectful work today have become mainly challenging due to climate change.”
He warned that if the world did not change its current climate position, more than 5 crore permanent employment would be completed by 20.
In addition to these, about 2 billion 5 million workers, ie about 2 billion 5 million workers, will come under extra heat during their effectiveness.
Mostafa Kamal Gue says these worrying statistics show that in the deepest of the climate crisis, the strong social security system is very important for staff.
He said that many countries are far from fulfilling the right to social protection, especially when it comes to competing for climate change.
Thus, social security requires more attention and investment. It should not only be limited to temporary assistance, but it must be created a strong and right -based system.
At the same time, he highlighted a positive side, saying that due to the change of carbon emissions, more than ten million new jobs could be created by 20 years.
However, this new employment will not always be created in those places where old employment is ending, so it is very important for the workers to have strong protection and proper planning.
It is important to be released from fossil fuels
UN Human Rights and Climate Change Specialist Alyssa Cocks presented his latest report that gradually the use of fossil fuel from the economy is the most effective way.
It can reduce the effects of climate change and protect human rights.
The cock said that this is not an easy task because fossil fuels have reached every region of our life and economy.
He said, “Fossil fuels are everywhere: in our food system, in our sea, even in our bodies and even in many cases we do not know about it or we have not intentionally include them in our lives.”
Experts said that we “need to gain knowledge from the use of fossil fuels”. In this regard, he said how the interests involved in the fossil fuel disrupted public understanding and attacked the climate guards.
He said that though political differences could reduce progress, action could be taken at each level.
Cube
Human Rights High Commissioner Volca Turk emphasized that in a fair change it should be ensured that no one is behind.
He said, “If we do not protect people’s lives, their health, their employment and future possibilities, this change will not only repeat the wrongdoing and discrimination in our society, but it will increase it further.”
Eloor Mostafa Kamal Gaya repeated the same feeling: “The global climate agenda is a human tragedy and it is a matter of human rights.”
“The targets that have been set up in the country and international communities should not be limited to statistics and indicators, people need to focus on this whole process.”
