Climate summit approves $300 billion financing deal for climate support
A climate summit has approved a $300 billion financing deal from wealthy nations, increasing their previous offer of $250 billion. This funding aims to support poorer countries facing climate challenges, but many representatives say it is still insufficient. The agreement includes hopes for private investment and carbon credit trading, but uncertainty remains about how much each country will contribute. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s stance on climate change raises concerns about future U.S. funding. The deal aligns with a recent U.N. report on the financial needs of vulnerable countries. It also allows developing nations like China to contribute voluntarily, creating a potential compromise for all parties involved.
