The Secretary General of the United Nations, BAN KI-MOON has asked member nations to be united in their approach towards global challenges. BAN set the stage for 70th General Debate of the United Nations General Assembly with a call to translate promises on paper to action on the ground with a new sustainability agenda that aims at wiping out poverty and building a sustainable future for all.
He also stressed the need for the world to get Green Climate Funds up and running as the world continues to squander trillions of dollars in wasteful military spending, wondering why it is easier to find money to destroy people and planet than it is to protect them.
