The Declaration

We all depend on the environment and the environment depends on us. Without a stable climate, our economies will suffer and global security will be in danger. Humanity's activities are driving climate change with harmful consequences for people and the natural world. By reducing, and ultimately eliminating, net greenhouse gas emissions, we will avoid even greater damage and build a cleaner, more prosperous future with more jobs, greater security, and a healthier natural environment.

We know that we must do much more collectively to combat the threat of climate change at the speed and scale necessary to achieve it. We have a duty to act with urgency to reduce greenhouse gas emissions over the next decade, unlock climate finance for developing countries, and achieve global net-zero emissions by mid-century. We must do this in a way that drives growth and job opportunities in our own communities, and that spreads prosperity and alleviates poverty around the world.

We will not achieve these goals by harming the economy or through an exclusively state-led approach. We need to harness the experience and creativity of businesses and entrepreneurs and mobilize them as our allies in this effort. We must unleash the power of free markets, private finance, and climate-friendly free trade to drive down costs, spur innovation, and create incentives for responsible businesses and individuals to adopt technological and nature-based solutions to climate change.

It is our generation's duty to provide these pragmatic yet ambitious solutions and to work together to combat the threat of climate change in our local communities, our nations, and across the globe. We will use our political power and influence to meet this challenge and protect and enhance both the environment and the economy now and for the benefit of those who come after us.
