“There is still a lot to be done in combating climate change”. That's what he said Gonzalo Errejón, CEO of Amara NZero, during participation in the COP-27, which is being held in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt.
“We managed to achieve some things, but there is still negative news, emissions are growing and there is a lot of work to be done. The time has come to act, there is no time to waste in terms of energy transition”, he highlighted.
Errejón spoke last Saturday (12), together with Enel, at an event organized by the United Nations Global Compact. At the meeting, he also commented on the different context in which the world lives compared to six years ago.
“With regards to COP-21, in Paris, in which I also participated, the position is different because the situation regarding climate change has changed. We are facing an alarming situation. There were six years in which there was a financial crisis, Covid-19, recession, inflation, a major energy crisis”, he recalled.
