A Greenpeace activist did an amazing job in central Madrid on Monday. He climbed 30 meters to walk on a cable suspended between two buildings in Plaza España. The police had to cut off traffic.
With this action taken by this environmental NGO, it wanted to warn that the annual climate summit, COP30, which begins on Monday in the Brazilian city of Belém, is doing so with “the planet on a tightrope”. This year’s summit is being held at a time when alarms have been raised about global warming, but also when the international battle against climate change is at its worst, at least since the signing of the Paris Agreement in 2015.
Greenpeace has urged governments gathered at the COP to “end fossil fuels and end deforestation before 2030.” “Although the planet is in a fragile ecological balance and warning signs are accumulating in the form of floods, floods, heat waves and other extreme events, we have the tools to avoid the worst-case scenarios,” Eva Saldaña, executive director of Greenpeace Spain, said in a statement on Monday. He added: “We only need political will and international cooperation to put the protection of life before private economic interests.”
