"The conference at Sendai today and the Paris Conference in December will deliberate on two seemingly separate matters: disaster risk reduction on the one hand and combating climate change on the other. In fact, these 2 matters are inseparably linked. Today, it is estimated in fact that more than 70% of natural disasters are linked to climate change, twice as many as 20 years ago, and this figure will increase in the future."

Text of the speech: http://www.ambafrance-ph.org/Speech-of-Laurent-Fabius-at-th…

« La conférence de Sendai aujourd’hui et la conférence de Paris en décembre traitent de deux sujets en apparence distincts : la réduction des risques de catastrophes d’un côté, et la lutte contre le dérèglement climatique de l’autre. En réalité, les sujets sont liés. Aujourd’hui, on estime en effet que plus de 70% des catastrophes dites naturelles sont liées au dérèglement climatique. C’est deux fois plus qu’il y a 20 ans et ce le sera encore d’avantage à l’avenir. »
