Local Conference of Youth on Climate Change was launched in Astana as part of the annual UN Climate Change Conference of Youth. The event was organized by the National Conservation Initiative, Sustainable Development Solutions Network and Nazarbayev University. "The world needs a collective effort to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. We are not on track. #Kazakhstan and #CentralAsia are one of the regions to bear the most acute effects of climate change. The imminence of the #environmental degradation requires immediate action and unwavering commitment to the #climategoals the region has set. As Kazakhstan is taking steps towards #carbonneutrality by 2060, we support the government, industry and civil society to underpin this with concrete actions," - said Johannes Baur, Head of Сooperation at the EU Delegation to Kazakhstan.
