Adaptation Finance: The Promise is There, But Where's the Cash?
Yes, there was a positive breakthrough. The final agreement included a call to triple the funding for adaptation by 2030. This is huge for developing countries already dealing with brutal heatwaves, flooding, and droughts. They desperately need the cash to survive.
But here’s the kicker: the promise is weak. Developed nations resisted creating any new, firm finance mechanisms or committing hard figures. Everyone agrees the money should be tripled, but nobody wants to be stuck holding the bill. This leaves the North vs. South divide wider than ever when it comes to who pays for the climate crisis.
