世界各国领导人在纽约参加联合国气候周期间，就全球气候危机应对举行广泛讨论。澳大利亚总理艾班尼斯周一发表开幕主旨演讲，冰岛总理弗罗斯塔多蒂尔作闭幕致辞，两位领导人均强调极端天气事件增加的趋势以及加速转向可再生能源的必要性1。英国外交大臣米利班德在会上表示："气候和自然必须纳入国家安全体系、威胁评估和应急规划"1。与会人士从国家安全、经济和气候适应等多个角度阐述了能源转型的紧迫性1。
本次气候周吸引了超过100,000名来自政界、商界和活动人士的参与者1。冰岛分享了其能源转型的成功案例，该国在20世纪70年代早期从进口石油转向地热能，目前近100%家庭使用可再生能源供热，其中超过90%为地热能1。宜家集团首席可持续发展官卡伦·普弗卢格在会上宣布，公司将在南卡罗来纳州新建太阳能公园，拥有178,000块太阳能板1。
组织者承认出现了"气候沉默"现象，商业领导人和政客在战争、通胀和经济困难面前回避讨论气候议题1。
World leaders gathered in New York for a climate week preceding the UN General Assembly to discuss accelerating the global response to the climate crisis.1 Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese delivered the opening keynote address on Monday, while Iceland's Prime Minister Katrin Jakobsdóttir closed the event with remarks emphasizing the necessity of transitioning to renewable energy sources.1
Iceland presented itself as a model for energy transformation, having shifted away from imported oil dependency in the early 1970s toward geothermal energy production.1 The Nordic nation now heats nearly 100 percent of its homes using renewable sources, with over 90 percent powered by geothermal energy alone.1 UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy framed climate action as a security imperative, stating that "climate and nature must be incorporated into national security frameworks, threat assessments and contingency planning."1 Meanwhile, IKEA Group's Chief Sustainability Officer Karen Pflug announced the construction of a new solar park in South Carolina equipped with 178,000 solar panels.1
The climate week attracted more than 100,000 participants spanning government, business, and activist communities.1 However, organizers acknowledged the emergence of a "climate silence" phenomenon, with business leaders and politicians increasingly avoiding climate discussions amid competing concerns over warfare, inflation, and economic hardship.1
