For his part, the French Ambassador to Jordan, His Excellency Mr. Franck Gellet, stated that today’s event takes place at an important moment for international climate diplomacy, as the international community gathers in Antalya for COP31. This conference is a reminder that we must move beyond commitments and accelerate concrete climate action. He added that the implementation of the Paris Agreement requires strong international cooperation, greater mobilization of climate finance, innovation, and the active engagement of the private sector.
In turn, the CEO of Orange Jordan, Eng. Philippe Mansour, highlighted the company’s continued efforts to integrate environmental responsibility across its operations, from advancing the use of renewable energy and improving energy efficiency to supporting national afforestation efforts. He noted that, in cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture, Orange Jordan has contributed to planting approximately 5,500 trees across its 3 forests, helping expand green spaces and combat desertification. He added that the company remains committed to promoting responsible practices and engaging employees in initiatives that contribute to a more sustainable future for Jordan.
