UN climate chief @simonstiell has said he hopes to see fewer people attend the annual COP climate negotiations after participants at COP28 in Dubai last December hit a record high of nearly 84,000. buff.ly/3UyMJRm
We need to start embedding climate change #adaptation as a way of life. Only 54 developing countries have a National Adaptation Plan (NAP). The @UNFCCC and partners will support the other 100 developing countries in formulating their NAPs and identifying the needed funding.
We need a quantum leap for #climatefinance. The recent progress is helpful. But not enough. My message to G7 ministers next week: Mobilize ministers across your governments. Push development banks for more. Unlock more finance. 👉 bit.ly/3xTU2KR
