1945

Remarks at Climate Summit, New York, 23 September 2014

Thank you for coming to this unprecedented and important gathering. Looking at that film made me think of my childhood. I grew up poor in war-torn Korea. I dreamed of peace. I dreamed of prosperity. I dreamed of opportunity. Standing here today is, in so many ways, a dream come true. But today the dreams of people throughout the world hang in the balance. Climate change threatens hard-won peace, prosperity, and opportunity for billions of people. Today we must set the world on a new course.
