"Climate change poses an urgent challenge to our planet and human societies, including the OIC member states," Al-Zayani said in a speech copy of which was also sent online to the Saudi Gazette.
"While historically the share of the OIC countries in green house gas emissions and global warming has been negligible, these countries are unfortunately among the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change," he added. Citing a report by the UN International Panel on Climate Change, Al-Zayani said climate change has induced sea level to rise probably up to 59 centimeters or even more by the year 2100.
