@COP29_AZ The latest draft text for the climate finance goal remains glaringly incomplete without the concrete numbers for the finance goal. The clock is ticking. ⏳#PayUp

"The NCGQ must be ambitious, public and grant based, easy in access, and gender responsive. The floating figures of $200/300 bn are a joke; they don't reflect the need of local communities in developing countries, and scientific estimates project NCQG at $1.3 tn" says @y_achoki

To close the climate finance gap, strengthening adaptation at the local level is key. At @COP29Baku @CAREGlobal's demand is for a $1 trillion new funding goal that ensures equitable support for vulnerable nations. #PayUp #CAREatCOP @y_achoki @CARE @careintuk @CAREinKenya @caresom

The lack of leaders from developed countries at #COP29 climate action summit, is "deeply concerning... It signals no sense of urgency, a lack of political will, which is critical to deliver on the New Collective Quantified Goal." Marlene Achoki, @CAREClimate global policy lead

To those who opposed a clear reference to phase out of fossil fuels during the #COP28 Climate Conference, I want to say: Whether you like it or not, fossil fuel phase out is inevitable. Let’s hope it doesn’t come too late.

"AOSIS at the beginning of this #COP28 had one objective, to ensure that 1.5 is safeguarded in a meaningful way. Our leaders and Ministers have been clear. We cannot afford to return to our islands with the message that this process has failed us." FULL: aosis.org/cop28-closing-plen…
