NEW YORK Wholesale Dallas Cowboys Jersey , Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- The United Nations (UN) and the World Bank Group plan to accelerate the flow of finance for climate action through a new platform dedicated to identifying and facilitating transformational investments in developing countries, World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim said on Wednesday.
The platform, named Invest4Climate, will bring together investors with high-impact opportunities in developing countries such as large-scale development of battery storage, electric cars Wholesale Arizona Cardinals Jersey , and low emission air conditioning.
It will also facilitate such investments through the development of risk mitigation instruments and, based on demand, will work with national governments to improve policy environments.
Kim said at a press conference during the Bloomberg Global Business Forum that "there are vast opportunities in developing countries in areas like clean energy and climate-smart agriculture that will lay the groundwork for a more prosperous and sustainable future."
"Our challenge is to create the conditions for investment to flow, and to get all forms of finance working together for maximum impact," he added.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said that countries are successfully reducing emissions and building resilience to climate change.
But getting to the level of action needed to reach the global goals set in Paris two years ago will require a huge leap in the flow of financing and investment for implementing the National Determined Contributions Wholesale Atlanta Falcons Jersey , he said.
"Cities are leading the way in confronting climate change, and they would be doing even more, even faster, if they had greater access to funding," said Michael R. Bloomberg Wholesale Baltimore Ravens Jersey , UN Special Envoy for Cities and Climate Change, at the same press conference.
The first Invest4Climate initiatives are expected to be announced at the Climate Summit in Paris in December 2017.

New York - Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Sunday he saw a widespread acceptance among major powers that Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad should stay in office.
"I think today everyone has accepted that President Assad must remain so that we can combat the terrorists," Rouhani told CNN.
Iran and Russia are the key allies of Assad Wholesale Buffalo Bills Jersey , who has faced Western demands that he step down amid a war that has killed more than 240,000 people and caused four million to flee.
But the United States has been hitting Islamic State extremists opposed to Assad, with France on Sunday launching its first strike.
"In Syria, when our first objective is to drive out terrorists and combatting terrorists to defeat them, we have no solution other than to strengthen the central authority and the central government of that country as a central seat of power Wholesale Carolina Panthers Jersey ," said Rouhani, who is visiting New York for the UN General Assembly.
Iran's Shiite clerical regime has voiced concern over a future without Assad, a largely secular leader from the heterodox Alawite movement.
But Rouhani said he also saw a future role for opponents of Assad.
"As soon as this movement reaches the various levels of success and starts driving out the terrorists on a step-by-step basis, then other plans must be put into action so as to hear the voices of the opposition as well," Rouhani said.
The reform-minded Rouhani has reached a landmark denuclearization accord with major powers Wholesale Chicago Bears Jersey , a step in reconciliation with the United States, the traditional bugbear of Iran since the 1979 Islamic revolution.
But Rouhani said that Iran was not in direct talks about Syria with the United States.
BEGRADE, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Around 1,000 people from Serbia and abroad attended the Belgrade Pride parade Sunday and voiced their support for the rights of the LGBT minority in this country.
The Belgrade Pride was successfully held here for the third time in its history, with the heavy security measures implemented by police in city center which was completely blocked by several thousand police officers armed with anti-riot equipment.
Serbia's gays Wholesale Cincinnati Bengals Jersey , lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals walked peacefully from the government building to the parliament followed by their supporters, guests from former Yugoslavian countries, region and other European countries, diplomats of several countries Wholesale Cleveland Browns Jersey , Belgrade Mayor Sinisa Mali as well as 400 journalists.
Participants carried rainbow flags, blew whistles while alongside them a truck carried stereo system with loud music to which they danced during their march through the city streets.
Member of the organizing board of the Belgrade Pride Boban Stojanovic said that LGBT community demands that several laws get adopted such as those on same-sex relationships, the legal status of transsexual people after they change sex, and appealed to authorities to provide them with better protection against violence.
"We fought for a long time to achieve this and we are happy because today this day came. There are no tensions or any organized violence or protests against this manifestation."
Stojanovic stressed that this year's pride parade was easier to organize than those before, and that the organizers have all the time been in contact with the police that secured the event.
