Barbados expects the world will see more difficulty given the impact of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the current food and energy crisis.
Prime Minister, Mia Amor Mottley believes in the face of these challenges, countries would not consider doing the right things sustainably as they focus on survival.
Ms. Mottley was among the panel for the global TIME100 community to spotlight solutions and encourage action toward a better world.
Other speakers at the event include Chief Executive Officer of Apple, Tim Cook and U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry.
