Planet 2021 - Hungary president calls for global action 'through local measures'

The world must take action "globally as well as locally", President Janos Ader said at the Planet Budapest 2021 sustainability expo and world conference on the event's second day on Tuesday. "Global action can be successful through the deeds of nation states," he said in his address to the event. The decades-long motto of "think globally, act locally" was no longer enough, Ader said. It should be changed to "act globally, act locally", he added.
