COP29 negotiators reach $300 billion climate funding deal after tense talks

livemint.com November 25, 2024, 01:01 AM UTC

Negotiations at COP29 in Azerbaijan nearly collapsed before reaching a $300 billion climate funding deal for developing countries. This agreement triples the previous $100 billion annual pledge but falls short of the $1 trillion sought by poorer nations. The talks faced significant challenges, including a walkout by vulnerable nations and tensions over fossil fuel commitments. Despite these issues, a smaller group of negotiators secured a framework for the deal after intense discussions, marking the largest financial commitment from UN climate talks to date. However, skepticism remains about the adequacy of the funding, as much of it may come in the form of loans rather than grants. The agreement also lacks clarity on what counts as climate finance, raising concerns among developing countries about its effectiveness.
