Topic: 2025 – Impact of Climate Change on Air Quality
Country: Central African Republic
Delegate Name: Lia Rohrschneider
Climate Change is becoming a bigger problem for the world. It leads to changes
in global temperatures and incites erratic weather. Climate Change itself is mainly caused by
human activity, with the burning of fossil fuels and other activities that lead to greenhouse gases
being released into the atmosphere. The United Nations has taken great measures in the past
towards climate change. For example, they made the 2015 Paris Agreement, which details that
every country should set its own climate goals. Another great example is the Climate Summit
in 2025, where many countries, including our biggest emitter, China, announced reductions of
economy-wide emissions.
As a country, the Central African Republic suffers greatly from the impacts of climate
change. We are a landlocked country that is often described as having intense heat, which
means that our temperatures are on the rise. By 2060, the mean temperatures will have
increased by 2.32 °C. The Central African Republic has been suffering from more droughts and
desertification, which are all caused by climate change. The Central African Republic is an
underdeveloped country, where if we suffer from climate change, there will be less food and
water available to the people. The Central African Republic has already taken measures against
climate change. For example, we have created the National Adaptation Plan (NAP). This
discusses our vulnerability to climate change and how we possibly plan to deal with it.
The Central African Republic would like to urge the other countries to act against climate
change. It is a problem among us all, and as the delegation of the Central African Republic, we would like to implement a
proposition: we would like to have all countries agree on the fact that we need to take more
drastic measures on climate change. Our proposition would include ways to make the world a
bit more eco-friendly and to stop climate change. For example, we could implement a strategy
that enforces people to get their energy from different sources, to limit the burning of fossil fuels.
We could also implement a worldwide plantation of trees. Those few examples will limit the
amount of human activity and will also limit the amount of greenhouse gases that are released
into the atmosphere.
