We have the ability to end extreme poverty even in the face of climate change, but to succeed, climate considerations will need to be integrated into development work. And we will need to act fast, because as climate impacts increase, so will the difficulty and cost of eradicating poverty. (John Roome, Senior Director for Climate Change at the World Bank Group)
即使受氣候變化威脅,我們仍有能力去結束極端貧窮,但先決條件是我們要將氣候因素納入發展中。而且我們亦要盡快行動,因為當氣候影響增加,解決貧窮問題的難度成本亦會相應增加。 - John Roome (世界銀行氣候變化高級總監)
