1. “Let us harness the Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Policing Goals to work together so as to strengthen our capacity to investigate environmental crime, protect resource-dependent communities, build mechanisms to protect biodiversity and natural resources and disrupt organized crime networks and the profit element. Let this be a year of strengthened cooperation and renewed ambitions to secure a sustainable future for the next generations to come.”

2. “INTERPOL’s environmental security programme and vulnerable communities programme have long been assisting its 195 member countries in tackling the climate-security nexus. Furthermore, effective international law enforcement cooperation will contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and INTERPOL’s complementary seven Global Policing Goals. For example, INTERPOL Global Policing Goal 3 addresses the protection of vulnerable communities. Global Policing Goal 7, on environmental security and sustainability, supports the implementation of 11 Sustainable Development Goals, including Goal 13, on climate action.”

3. “The climate crisis is indeed a threat multiplier. Rising sea levels lead to resource scarcity and organized criminal groups exploiting them for profit. Climate-induced migration flows raise the demand for people-smuggling services. The increased frequency of natural disasters exacerbates local grievances and fuels conflict, terrorism, fragility and instability. There is no one country or organization that can mitigate the implications of climate risks alone. Even so, law enforcement plays a crucial role in our collective response measures. Indeed, the global law enforcement community is at the front lines of protecting communities and combating the criminal networks that exploit and fuel natural disasters to their advantage.”

4. “Mr. Humlegård: It is my pleasure to address the Security Council on an issue of central importance to global security. In the past years, extreme weather events caused widespread destruction, killed thousands of people and displaced millions. To quote from the statement made by Secretary-General António Guterres at the twenty- seventh session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, held in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt: “Climate chaos is a crisis of biblical proportions. The signs are everywhere.” Millions of people live in vulnerable contexts, with low-lying island nations and coastal regions at risk of land loss. The immediate impacts may differ across regions and disproportionally strike the most vulnerable, but the climate crisis affects us all.”
