New climate funding plan to benefit poorest countries: Report
Oct 25, 2021 5:17 AM

A new climate funding plan will be unveiled today in the United Kingdom with an aim to help the world’s poorest countries to cope with the severe impacts of climate change. The new proposal is being floated in an effort to break the impasse between the developed and developing countries at the United Nations Climate Change Conference.

The 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 26) will be held in Glasgow, Scotland, from October 31 to November 12.

The UK government, one of the hosts of the COP 26, will unveil the proposal along with ministers from Germany and Canada, who have been given the responsibility of coming up with a plan for climate funding. The proposal has been framed with an aim to gain the backing of scores of developing countries for any deal at the COP 26 summit, according to The Guardian.
