Responding to Climate Change – RTCC
Responding to Climate Change Limited (RTCC) was founded in 2002 by James
Ramsey. Our mission is to raise awareness about climate change. We are a non-
profit organisation that is an official Observer to the United Nations Framework
Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Convention on Biological Diversity
(CBD), and the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD)
(UNCCD). We also hold “Special Advisory Status” with The United Nations
Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC).
One of RTCC’s expertise is facilitating public and private partnerships and although
we are an independent organisation, we are entirely funded by governments,
international businesses, intergovernmental agencies, research institutes and donor
organisations. Since 2002, RTCC has formed a number of significant partnerships,
including partnerships with the United Nations Rio Conventions, governments from
around the world, as well as the World Bank, Climate Investment Funds (CIFs), and
UN Habitat. Our most recent and unique partnership has been with the Islamic World
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ICESCO).
Together we have hosted a series of televised events and interviews at their pavilion
for COP29, all of which are available on our on-demand video channel Climate
Change TV. (www.climate-change.tv). Climate Change TV is the first online video
broadcaster solely dedicated to climate change issues, with over 2,000 interviews
from world leaders, environment ministers, scientists, business leaders, and other
stakeholders in the climate change debate. The channel also includes all our recent
COP29 events as well as events and panel discussions from our participation in
previous COPs.

COP29 will be the first hosted in the Caucasus, and we are honoured to represent our region to the world.
Climate change affects everyone differently: we face extreme heat, water scarcity and declining water levels in the Caspian Sea that have a direct impact on our lives and livelihoods.But we are also a source of solutions
and opportunities, such as our abundant wind and solar potential, which can play an important role in the
renewable energy landscape, supporting transition to low-emissions and climate resilient development not
only at the national, but also at the regional and global level, and we are determined to lead by example.
