COP29 Climate Finance Draft Proposes $250 Bn Target from Wealthy Countries

At COP29, the presidency released a new draft climate finance deal proposing that developed nations contribute $250 billion annually by 2035 to help developing countries cope with the worsening impacts of climate change. This proposal is part of a broader plan to raise $1.3 trillion annually by 2035, sourced from both public and private funds, aimed at assisting poorer nations in reducing emissions and adapting to climate change.

The proposal has sparked debate among negotiators, with some European representatives arguing that the target is too high and that there is insufficient focus on broadening the number of contributing countries. However, the goal of the agreement is to address the critical financial needs of countries disproportionately affected by climate change, which are struggling to mitigate its effects while transitioning to greener energy sources.

Governments at COP29, held in Baku, Azerbaijan, are attempting to finalize this ambitious climate finance framework, which would provide essential financial support to the most vulnerable nations. The deal also seeks to ensure a fair distribution of contributions from wealthier nations to assist poorer regions in their green energy transitions and climate change mitigation efforts. Talks are ongoing, with negotiators seeking a final agreement on the level of contributions and the structure of the funding.
