Asia Pacific‘s leading platform for sustainable development
Opinion / #UNFCCC
As COP31 gets underway, researchers warn that countries can obstruct climate negotiations without openly rejecting action – using funding disputes, weakened commitments and procedural tactics to delay progress.
Last year’s UN Climate Change Conference in Belém, Brazil, put forests high on the climate agenda. This month’s UN Climate Change Conference in Antalya, Turkey, can do the same for the ocean, whose warming threatens not just food and energy security but global survival.
For decades, the international community has acknowledged the extraordinary value of tropical forests while failing to invest adequately in their conservation. The Tropical Forest Forever Facility, launched at last year’s United Nations Climate Change Conference, could help close this financing gap.
Asean must push for stronger adaptation funding, faster loss and damage support and a transition away from fossil fuels as climate risks intensify.
