Sean todas y todos ustedes bienvenidos a México, bienvenidos a Aguascalientes. Celebramos hoy el día mundial del Hábitat con el tema “Ciudades y cambio climático”, el día Mundial del Habitar se creó para generar un espacio de reflexión sobre la problemática de las ciudades en el planeta, gracias por haber seleccionado a nuestro país, México como la sede de este importante espacio de reflexión, de intercambio de ideas de búsquedas de soluciones. Foro hábitat seleccionó este tema para ubicar en el centro de las discusiones internacionales en materia de cambio climático a las ciudades con un rol protagónico, en las ciudades viven poco ya más de la mitad de los 7 mil millones de seres humanos que hoy pueblan la tierra, sin embargo generan también, emiten 70% de los gases de efecto invernadero de ahí que el impacto de las ciudades en el cambio climático constituya hoy un reto prioritario para la comunidad internacional aquí reunida, ya que son clave para fomentar cambios en hábitos en conductas para reducir el calentamiento global.

| The Secretary-general — Message On World Habitat Day |
|
|
 |
From the Secretary-General
The theme of World Habitat Day 2003 -- “Water and Sanitation for Cities” -- highlights the need to provide the urban poor with clean water and decent sanitation.
In a rapidly urbanizing world, where already half of the world’s population lives in cities and towns, at least 1 billion people suffer from the dangers and indignities associated with the lack of clean water and adequate sanitation.
