United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres re-appointed Michael Bloomberg as his Special Envoy on Climate Ambition and Solutions, in an effort to mobilize global action in the lead-up to a key climate conference in Scotland in November.
Bloomberg is the founder and majority owner of Bloomberg LP, the parent company of Bloomberg News.
A former New York mayor and longtime climate activist, Bloomberg has led efforts both in the U.S. and abroad to tackle climate change. He is the board president of the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group, a global network of 97 major cities, and co-chair of the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy, a network of more than 10,000 cities and local governments.
He was first appointed as UN special envoy on cities and climate change in 2014 by then-UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.
