Having sufficient funding is key to the world’s success in combating climate change.
As Day.Az reports with reference to Trend, this is stated in the publication of the executive secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Simon Steele on his social media account.
“The upcoming COP29 climate conference in Baku should be favorable. It is about achieving concrete results in order to begin to translate the climate commitments made by countries within the framework of last year’s UAE Consensus (COP28) into reality,” he noted.

According to Steele, “the world can only prevent the climate crisis from destroying every economy, including even the largest and richest, if every country has the means to take much stronger action to combat climate change.”
“It is obvious that finance is key among the specific results needed this year. The new ambitious goal is entirely in the interests of every country and every economy,” he emphasized.
It should be noted that the Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC takes part in the Pre-COP events, which started on Thursday in Baku.
The capital of Azerbaijan will host the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change on November 11-22.
