Getting to global climate solidarity
While developing countries are leading the charge against climate change, many developed countries continually fail to honour their pledges, undermining the effectiveness of multilateral agreements. The resulting trust gap is the main obstacle to achieving global solidarity, which is essential for ensuring a net-zero future.

The most important issue for India is to grow sustainably while adhering to its international climate commitments and keeping its energy constraints in mind.

Fully replenishing the green climate fund
It is no exaggeration to say that the GCF’s replenishment campaign is a test of the world’s commitment to combating global warming. A successful outcome would not only help close the massive global climate financing gap, but would also allow developed countries to rebuild trust by showing that they understand the urgency of the crisis.

Walking our talk on climate action
Once again, climate scientists have warned that time is running out in the global race to stay ahead of catastrophic climate change. While Kenya and many other countries in the Global South could play a major role in solving the problem, more must be done to unlock that potential.
