Climate damage fund ‘a win for our entire world’

Let’s get some reaction now.

At the start of this summit, I reported on some very powerful speeches from leaders of nations most vulnerable to climate change.

Time to pay the climate bill, they demanded.

“We will not give up… the alternative consigns us to a watery grave,” Bahamas Prime Minister Philip Davis said in a powerful opening speech.

Now, two weeks later, one of the groups leading this charge – the Alliance of Small Island States (Aosis) – is calling the “loss and damage” fund “a mission 30 years in the making”.

Quote Message: Today, the international community has restored global faith in this critical process that is dedicated to ensuring no one is left behind. The agreements made at COP27 are a win for our entire world. We have shown those who have felt neglected that we hear you, we see you, and we are giving you the respect and care you deserve” from Molwyn Joseph Environment minister for Antigua and Barbuda and chair of Aosis
