Description
In this special episode of Upwell, we chat with Ambassador Carlos Fuller, Permanent Representative of Belize to the United Nations and Vice President of the Conference of the Parties of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). In the conversation, we discuss the impacts of the climate crisis in Belize and across the Caribbean — from rising sea temperatures bleaching coral reefs and devastating fisheries, to coastal erosion forcing the displacement of coastal communities — and address the urgent need to implement the Loss and Damage Fund. You can sign Only One's petition to support the Loss and Damage Fund here, and listen to more from Ambassador Fuller in Shores in Peril | Coastal erosion in Belize, our new short film in The Frontline series, showcasing voices from the frontlines of the climate crisis.
