IMF Head: World Will Be "Toasted, Roasted & Grilled" w/o Effective Climate Response
The world will be in deep trouble if it fails to tackle climate change and inequality, IMF managing director Christine Lagarde has warned. If we dont address these issues... we will be moving to a dark future in 50 years, she told a major economic conference in the Saudi capital Riyadh on Tuesday.
Lagarde said that we will be toasted, roasted and grilled if the world fails to take critical decisions on climate change.
In 2015, around 195 nations signed the Paris climate agreement which set out goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, so as to prevent temperatures rising by more than two degrees in around 50 years.
But US President Donald Trump announced in June the start of a three-year process to pull out of the pact, arguing that it would put the US at an economic disadvantage.
