Fiji_UNEA 5 National Statement

Bula vinaka and a very warm welcome from the isles of Fiji. The globe is reeling under a severe planetary crisis, seriously harming all life on earth. The Biodiversity Loss and Climate Change are the two most impactful risks affecting multiple sectors. The relentless demands placed on the earth’s resources exceed all our planetary boundaries - driving over a million species of plants and animals to the brink of extinction. This loss in biodiversity is catastrophic, fueled by climate change, causing irreversible damage to the environment and human health. As a result, the emergence of public health diseases is on the rise globally.
