UN climate chief asks G20 leaders for boost as COP29 finance talks lag
BAKU - The UN's climate chief called on leaders of the world's biggest economies on Saturday to send a signal of support for global climate finance efforts when they meet in Rio de Janeiro next week, to help trigger a deal at COP29 talks.
He said they should support an increase in grants and loans, along with debt relief, so vulnerable countries "are not hamstrung by debt servicing costs that make bolder climate actions all but impossible". The groups included the We Mean Business Coalition, the United Nations Global Compact, and the Brazilian Council for Sustainable Development.Ana Toni, a Brazilian climate official, told a press conference she was hoping for "a very strong signal on climate" from the G20 meeting, saying it was vital to the Baku talks.
"The divisions we saw coming into the meeting are still there, which leaves quite a lot of work for ministers next week," he told Reuters."Over the last few days, some people have doubted whether collectively we can deliver. It's time for the negotiators to start proving them wrong," he told reporters.
