UN's Secretary-General emphasized work on combating the climate change 26.5.2009 12:23 | Dated: 26.5.2009 12:53 HELSINGIN SANOMAT HANNES HEIKURA / HS UN's Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon met Finnish President Tarja Halonen at the presidential palace today. Ban also spoke at the Finnish parliament, Eduskunta: “Scientific community warns that time runs out”, the Secretary-General said. ”Many of the world's top scientists' forecasts of only two years ago have already their worst-case scenarios being fulfilled and in some cases exceeded. The consequences to the people, economy and for our whole planet are serious.” Ban described having seen the effects with his own eyes. ”The continental ice shelves are breaking up on the Antarctica. The glaciers are melting on the Andes. Only by acting now we can influence the approaching catastrophe.” Ban appealed for a comprehensive and intensive climate treaty. Besides for combating the climate change, it would spur new green economy investments and innovation, the Secretary-General said. ”The clock is ticking. Time is running and there are only less than 200 days for Copenhagen summit."

I was finally able to get His Excellency Ban Ki Moon about the sudden sea level surges a copy of which is enclosed. Over the past 50 years, the Antarcic Peninsula has been one of the fastest warming places on the planet. Many of its ice shelves have retreated in that time and six of them have collapsed completely (Prince Gustav Channel, Larsen Inlet, Larsen A, Larsen B, Wordie, Muller and the Jones Ice Shelf).
