Next week, world leaders head to #Baku, #Azerbaijan, for #COP29—the “finance COP.” Climate finance is high on the agenda as nations discuss how to channel billions to developing countries grappling with the climate crisis and with leaders expected to explore commitments to phase out fossil fuels and triple investments in renewable energy. Some key discussions include setting a new climate finance target to support emission cuts and adaptation, and solidifying details for the loss and damage fund. COP29 follows the release of UNEP’s #EmissionsGap Report 2024, which warns that without more ambitious cuts to greenhouse gas emissions, the world is on track for a temperature increase of 2.6°C-3.1°C this century, a rise that would be “debilitating” for the planet. The report found countries must slash emissions by 42% by 2030 in order to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, one of the key goals of the #ParisAgreement on #ClimateChange. . ??
