Relationship between climate change and biodiversity imbalance, and this is a conviction confirmed by Elizabeth Maruma Mrima, Executive Secretary of the Convention on Biological Diversity. The Paris Climate Agreement has achieved a qualitative leap in the commitment of the world's countries to reduce emissions within a growing global awareness of the challenges of climate change.
The individual's awareness of sustainability and its multiple implications is the axis of launching societies that move quickly towards climate neutrality or 'zero carbon'. And the issue is not related to more theorizing and grandiose scientific terminology as much as it is related to simple steps that the public can easily understand.

In the same year, he was awarded the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.

Organic farming is among the initiatives that aim to reduce the use of chemicals such as fertilizers and pesticides to preserve human health and the environment, optimize the use of resources, achieve integration between plant and animal production, protect wildlife and ensure biodiversity within the farm. The Abu Dhabi Farmers' Services Center believes that organic agriculture enhances the relationship between environmental systems and soil fertility to preserve human health, through the optimal use of biodiversity and agricultural cycles appropriate to local conditions, and the non-use of chemical pesticides, compound fertilizers and genetically modified inputs.

Climate change is no longer a concern of environmental scientists only, but has become a global issue taking on political dimensions day after day, an actor that drives political and economic developments, new shipping lines, a race for wealth in the Arctic, disturbances and waves of displacement and perhaps future wars, innovative industries to address the danger, International negotiations to prevent repercussions, even food meals, and floating cities that take into account climate developments.
