Simon Stiell sits for an interview to discuss his new role as the executive secretary of the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change, Thursday, Sept. 22, 2022, at U.N. headquarters. Stiell was the environment and climate resilience minister on the small island nation of Grenada until a few weeks ago. It’s now his job to make sure the world cuts about half emissions of heat-trapping gases — which are helping trigger unprecedented frequent weather disasters — in just eight years, or, as he puts it, two World Cups or two Olympics away.
