AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoClimate Finance: Rich countries provided just $28.2 billion for adaptation in 2024, far below the $305 billion developing nations need each year, a UN report says ahead of COP31, which opens Nov. 9 in Türkiye. Even tripling funding by 2035 would leave a major shortfall. Health and Preparedness: The WHO says six practical climate and health measures could save nearly 1.6 million lives a year. The Red Cross is also urging COP31 leaders to boost support for communities facing worsening heat, floods and droughts. Philippines: Senator Loren Legarda wants government agencies to measure and disclose their emissions as the country develops a carbon-market framework. Separately, lawmakers are pressing to get 6.2 billion pesos in El Niño aid to drought-hit farmers and fishers. Paris Agreement: The pact turned 10 on Nov. 4, but a UN review says action still falls short of its goals.
