UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has warned world leaders that ending the burning of fossil fuels is the only way to stop global warming.

Speaking at the formal opening ceremony of the UN’s COP28 climate summit in Dubai, Guterres said that just reducing fossil fuel usage wouldn’t be enough to prevent climate disaster. On Thursday, the talks got off to a quick start, with a landmark deal to help the world’s poorest countries cope with the impacts of the climate crisis.

Britain’s King Charles held the day’s opening address at the summit. Here is some of what he had to say.

For more on the summit, we talk to DW’s climate correspondent, Louise Osborne.
