Climate idea

What did developing countries (Africa in particular) get from COP26?

Africa could have gotten a lot from COP26 but it did not. A lot of questions surrounding climate finance and its delivery remain unanswered. Even with the commitments made at COP26, the progress is still insufficient for Africa to transition more quickly. Climate change catastrophe is evidently on the horizon if the world does not act. Costly as such action might be in the short run for individual nations, it is imperative that they be incurred for the sake of maintaining a planet that is capable of producing any kind of shared future prosperity. Collective action remains the Achilles Heel.
