SENATOR LEGARDA WITH SEGOLENE ROYAL: Senator Loren Legarda, UN Champion for Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation for Asia-Pacific, with France’s Minister of Ecology, Segolene Royal, at the Summit of Consciences for the Climate in Paris, France. The two women leaders and climate advocates first met during the state visit of French President Francois Hollande to the Philippines last February when the Senator helped highlight the climate change issue, particularly in formulating a stronger language for the joint Philippines-France Manila Call to Action on Climate Change, which Legarda read along with French actress Marion Cotillard.
