"Global climate change, and its devasting impact upon our planet, societies and lives, is the reality we face right now, and urgent action is needed to tackle it. I have always believed that digital technologies have a vital role to play in monitoring, mitigating and adapting to climate change, supported by strong policies, regulation and international standards. ITU is fully committed to supporting this role, reflecting it across all our activities and work areas."
