Quotes from Marcene Mitchell

Marcene Mitchell, SVP of climate change at WWF, stresses the organization’s ability to effectively combat climate change boils down to three disciplines. “The first is we have to stop emitting greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere and overwhelming the planet’s natural carbon cycle,” she says. “The second thing we need to do is bolster the planet’s natural ability to manage the carbon cycle. Third, we need to address the climate impacts that are already happening: rising sea levels, increased frequency and severity of storms, heat waves, and wildfires.”

The Paris Agreement established the stocktake as a two-year process that occurs every five years and becomes the basis of charting a path forward. The stocktakes are meant to inform the greenhouse gas reductions each country commits to under the Paris Agreement, formally known as nationally determined contributions or NDCs, which are also updated every five years.

“We’d like to see greater ambition in our 2030 targets from countries — so really making the Global Stocktake a moment of learning and a moment of action,” said Marcene Mitchell, senior vice president at WWF.
