UN chief taps Grenada’s Simon Stiell as new UN climate chief

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Secretary-General Antonio Guterres announced the appointment Monday of Simon Stiell from the Caribbean island nation of Grenada as the new U.N. climate chief, calling him, “a true champion” of creative approaches to tackling the global climate crisis.

Stiell, who originally trained in the United Kingdom as an engineer and earned an MBA there, was a senior member in Grenada’s government from 2013 until June 2022, serving as minister for climate resilience and the environment for five years.

Prior to joining the government, he spent 14 years in the technology sector, holding senior executive positions in industry leading companies from Silicon Valley technology start-ups to major corporations, including Nokia and GEC Plessey Telecommunications.

In recent years Stiell has been among a handful of prominent figures from vulnerable nations demanding that rich countries step up their efforts to combat climate change and help those around the world who are most vulnerable.

Reacting recently to a scientific report about the effects of climate change already affecting more than 3 billion people worldwide, Stiell warned that inaction would be “catastrophic.”

“Nothing less than the most extreme measures to cut emissions and adapt to this crisis can be justified,” he said.

More than once he’s said the ‘Island nations’ need 50% of what the earmarked revenue is slated for Climate Changes. ...and specifically Gernada, as he said to make certain the Island prospers.

Interesting he’s been appointed as the new UN Climate Chef - you can with certainty know he’ll make sure his country gets what he wants for it.
