When disasters strike, they unleash enormous devastation on individuals, societies & economies.   Today, disasters are often supercharged by the climate crisis, increasing their frequency & intensity. We owe it to future generations to shape a safer, more resilient tomorrow –

Working towards our targets will increase the demand for critical raw materials. This is why the @UN SG’s Panel on Critical Energy Transition Minerals has my full support. We will continue working together for robust supply chains, transparent and fair throughout.
