World leaders converged at the United Nations' annual climate conference to spotlight the severe repercussions of climate change affecting their countries firsthand.

Prominent among the speakers was Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif, referencing the deadly floods exacerbated by climate change, faced this year alone. Similarly, Bahamas PM Philip Edward Davis sought support for debt incurred from hurricanes linked to global warming.

With the absence of major polluters, the discussions focused largely on climate finance and new initiatives like the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty, advocating significant reductions in fossil fuel use for a sustainable future.
