ANSA McAL proudly sponsored Guardian Media Limited journalist Ryan Bachoo to attend COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan. As a seasoned and respected journalist, Ryan has consistently highlighted the impacts of climate change on our local Caribbean community. We are proud to support his efforts and ensure that Caribbean voices are represented on the global stage. Reflecting on the experience, Ryan shared: "COP29 came on the back of dramatic changes in the weather patterns in the Caribbean. Hurricane Beryl was unprecedented in its nature. At the same time, as the world met in Baku, Azerbaijan, Trinidad, Grenada, and Belize were battling devastating floods. The UN Climate Change Conference can often come across as highly technical and too theoretical, but Guardian Media's coverage through the unwavering support of ANSA McAL allowed us to connect the human impact of climate change with the urgent need for assistance from the international community. That is at the heart of our coverage; how lives and livelihoods are the price of this changing climate and the urgent need to move towards a sustainable future." Thank you, Ryan, for your impactful reporting and dedication to raising awareness about the urgent need for climate action. #ANSAMcAL #ANSAGroup #RyanBachoo #GuardianMediaLimited
