> At the COP31 climate summit in Turkey, Marshall Islands president Hilda Heine warned that failing to mount an overwhelming response to the climate crisis—and overshooting the Paris Agreement’s 1.5C target—would threaten her country with eroding shores and floods that destroy towns and public facilities. She urged countries not to celebrate new fossil-fuel discoveries.
