Pope Francis said he will attend the COP28 climate conference starting next month in Dubai, the first time a pontiff will be at the UN environmental meeting since they began in 1995.
The pope told Italy’s state-run RAI television TG1 news in an interview that he expected to be in Dubai Dec 1-3. The conference runs from Nov 30 to Dec 12.
In Dubai, the pope is expected to drive home his recent appeal for action to curb global warming.
“We are still in time to stop it,” Francis said in the interview, speaking of global warming. “Our future is at stake, the future of our children and our grandchildren. A bit of responsibility is needed.”
