Mohamed Adow, director of Power Shift Africa, articulated two simultaneous climate narratives—one of renewable energy and improving economics of clean energy, the other of climate impacts accelerating faster than political and financial systems can respond—and called on New York to unite them.
“One is extremely hopeful. Renewable energy is booming, technology is improving and the economics of clean energy increasingly make sense without anyone having to make a moral argument for it. The other is terrifying. Climate impacts are accelerating faster than our political and financial systems are responding.”
