In a compelling speech at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) meeting during the Conference of Parties (COP28) in Dubai, Prime Minister Philip Davis emphasized the urgency of climate action, highlighting Partanna’s construction of carbon negative, climate resilient homes in the Bahamas.

Prime Minister Davis underscored the critical need for rapid and effective measures to combat climate change, noting that "time is a luxury we do not have." His speech, marked by a sense of urgency, questioned the speed and effectiveness of global efforts in addressing climate threats, especially for small island developing states like the Bahamas.

Despite this, the Prime Minister celebrated the progress made in the fight against climate change and its effects by Partanna in its development of carbon negative concrete technology and its partnership with the government of the Bahamas to build the world’s first carbon negative, climate resilient housing development.
