On this World Cities Day, we recognize the role of young people in driving climate action and shaping urban futures.
適逢世界城市日,我們承認青年在推動氣候行動和塑造城市未來方面的作用。
With more than half of the world’s population and 70 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions, cities are at the forefront of the climate crisis. And they need the energy and vision of youth leading the charge for change.
城市擁有世界一半以上的人口,占全球溫室氣體排放量的70%,因此處于氣候危機的最前沿。城市需要青年人的活力和視野引領變革。
From grassroots movements to innovation labs, young people are pushing for ambitious climate action. They are championing renewable energy integration, green jobs, clean public transportation, and climate adaptation measures – contributing to shape sustainable cities where everyone can thrive.
從草根運動到創新實驗室,青年人正在推動雄心勃勃的氣候行動。他們倡導可再生能源整合、綠色就業、清潔公共交通和氣候適應措施——為塑造人人都能享受繁榮的可持續城市做出貢獻。
We must amplify their voices, invest in their ideas, and promote their meaningful participation in urban decision-making. By empowering young people, we can accelerate climate action and drive global progress for the Sustainable Development Goals.
我們必須放大他們的聲音,投資于他們的想法,并促進他們切實參與城市決策。通過增強青年權能,我們可以加快氣候行動,推動全球在可持續發展目標方面取得進展。
As we mark World Cities Day, let us celebrate the power of youth to build green, resilient and inclusive cities that meet the needs and aspirations of future generations.
值此慶祝世界城市日之際,讓我們頌揚青年力量,建設滿足今世后代需求和愿望的綠色、韌性和包容性城市。
