President Joe Biden is using a historic trip to the Amazon on Sunday to highlight that US bilateral climate financing increased to $11 billion this year, meeting a pledge he made.
"The fight against climate change has been a defining cause of President Biden’s leadership and presidency," the White House said in a statement ahead of Biden touching down in the Brazilian city of Manaus, in the Amazon.
The first sitting US president to make a trip to the vast tropical rainforest, Biden is to meet with Brazilian Indigenous leaders and sign a declaration making November 17 an International Conservation Day. Around half of all climate financing goes through multilateral funds that are co-managed by developing countries. That has spurred criticism of the US preference for bilateral funding.
According to one study by British think tank ODI, the United States ranked second to last among 23 nations for progress toward providing a"fair share" of climate financing, based on their carbon footprint, population size and gross national income.
