- In 1979, 54 years after the creation of the of this United Nations, my country Saint Lucia, though small in geography, but large in courage, dignity, and conviction, took its seat among the community of nations, brimming with hope, optimism, and trust in the promise and goals of this body.
- For Saint Lucia, climate change is not a distant environmental issue.
- While the world focuses on headline grabbing events like monster hurricanes, melting glaciers, and tidal waves, climate change is affecting Saint Lucia daily in small but significant ways, such as the unusual bouts of drought in the rainy season, unprecedented floods in the dry season, and stifling of our beaches and coastlines by sargassum.
- Saint Lucia calls for climate finance that matches the scale of the crisis.
