A message to #COP29 delegates as climate finance negotiations enter their final hours. The decisions taken in the halls of Baku will affect the lives of millions.
Colombian Minister of Environment & Sustainable Development, @susanamuhamad, yesterday reminded #cop29, that developed countries needed to put a number on the table, to break the stalemate and enable any negotiations and discussions on the numbers
Just hours before a climate finance deal is expected to land at #COP29, German foreign minister @ABaerbock is calling on the Azerbaijani presidency @COP29_AZ to assume "its role with more climate policy ambition."
The world is watching.

Leider sind die neuen Verhandlungstexte der COP29 gerade bei so essenziellen Fragen wie #Klimafinanzierung noch lange nicht da, wo wir sie brauchen. Das wird noch ein extrem steiniger Weg, teilweise leider ein echtes up-hill battle. 1/4
KMD is at #COP29 the famously dubbed Finance COP
Fair share responsibility: ODI Global has outlined a fair share climate finance goal, based on historical responsibility for climate change, capacity to pay, and population size for all rich countries. See it below.
Developed countries should have put a #ClimateFinance quantum on the negotiating table by now
The math is simple. $1.3tn/yr. Expert analysis by ODI Global 👇🏾👇🏾 says it should be no less than $900bn in grants and grants-equivalent.

In the final hours of #COP29, we must not lose sight of the #ParisAgreement: our collective promise to tackle climate change & protect communities & ecosystems for generations to come.
Finance is essential to keeping that promise. We must #StandForParis with an ambitious #NCQG✊
The clock is ticking. Countries must work together to agree an ambitious climate finance goal and cement their commitment to transition away from fossil fuels.
Mary Robinson was pleased to see @antonioguterres has returned to Baku to help get COP29 negotiations over the line.
"Where is the number?", asks @CAREGlobal's Global Policy Lead @y_achoki as the pressure on countries at #COP29 to reach an ambitious, concrete climate finance goal increases. ⬇️
In Baku, Colombian Minister of Environment & Sustainable Development @susanamuhamad and I discussed how to deliver strong #COP29 outcomes & tackle barriers to #ClimateAction like debt and fiscal space. Our joint 🇩🇪🇪🇺🇨🇴 commitment to the #ParisAgreement stands firm. #StandforParis
"Global warming is real for our countries, and our economies. And the science is pretty clear how much it is going to cost."
- said @JiwohA, Minister of Environment and Climate Change for Sierra Leone #cop29#ClimateFinance
"We haven't seen strong language from the #G20, what is more important is that it happens here and we need to see countries coming out with numbers. Some European countries have proposed $200-$300, which is a good start" @LindaCulture@StrategicEU
Samoa’s Minister of Natural Resources Cedric Shuster and I discussed the importance of adaptation and access to climate finance. We will work with @AOSISChair toward a fair & ambitious #COP29 outcome. Our joint 🇩🇪🇪🇺🇼🇸 commitment to the #ParisAgreement stands firm. #StandforParis
"Let's correct the mistake that we came across when we were doing the 100 billion dollar target. That is why we are here to change ways of business to come up with new strategies."
