U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said he is confident that U.S. President-elect Donald Trump would change his approach to climate change after entering office, predicting that "Mr. Trump will really hear and understand the seriousness and urgency of addressing climate change," ABC News reported.
"As you may know, last week I spoke to President-elect Mr. Trump, and I brought up many issues, peace and security issues, including the issue of climate change," Ban said at a press conference today in Marrakech, Morocco, where he is attending U.N. climate talks. "I remain very optimistic about our effort to combat climate change. Look at what we have achieved."
He added, "The global unity around climate change once seemed to be unthinkable, but now it has become unstoppable."
