Following in the footsteps of the United States, the Italian government on Saturday appointed its first special envoy for climate change.
While in the United States, this responsibility was handed over to former Secretary of State John Kerry and to Ambassador Alessandro Modiano, 57, who is the Deputy Director-General of the European Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Modiano will be Italy’s key envoy in multilateral talks on the climate crisis, which will have a specific ministry in the government of Prime Minister Mario Draghi.
“This appointment further strengthens Italy’s leadership in the fight against climate change and represents a new tool by which our country can face the urgency of global warming,” Roberto Cingolani, Minister of Climate Change, said in a statement.
By appointing a special envoy for climate change, Italy reaffirms its commitment to combating climate change and reaffirms its desire to reassert its leadership on one of the most important issues for the planet’s survival. ”
