Climate actions in vulnerable countries
With limited resources to combat the crisis, climate-vulnerable nations in Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean, and Asia and the Pacific, are hit with the heaviest burdens: from cyclones in Bangladesh, to floods in Libya, to wildfires across South America.

Developed countries pledged to mobilize $100 billion per year by 2020 for climate action, but progress lags significantly behind the goals, and time is slipping away.
Studies estimate that developing countries will need trillions of dollars of public and private finance for climate actions by 2030.

As the world plans for this year’s COP29 — dubbed the “Finance COP” because negotiations for a new climate finance goal will dominate the agenda — there are major opportunities for vulnerable countries to secure the resources and commitments crucial for the low-carbon economy transition.

Allied for Climate Transformation by 2025 (ACT2025), a coalition of experts and thought leaders who amplify the voices of climate-vulnerable developing nations in climate negotiations, has released a Call to Action that explains how countries, particularly developed countries, can take concrete action to support climate-vulnerable countries. This concrete CTA plan listed a series of detailed actions needed to mitigate the damages in developing countries including setting an ambitious New Climate Finance Goal, building a Sufficient Response Package for Loss and Damage, etc. Check out the details ⬇️

The UN Bonn Climate Change Conference - a Cop29 Prepping meeting in June will play a crucial role in how countries will respond to this CTA from developing countries. And for everyone interested in the future of the world, you can join the expert discussions👇 through the live broadcast at We Don't Have Time.

In front of the Climate Crisis, we are all vulnerable. If we don’t protect others, it’s just a matter of time when it comes to us. There is no second climate.

The call for increased climate finance and a comprehensive response package is a pragmatic step towards ensuring equitable climate action. Developed countries must step up their commitments to support these nations in their transition to a low-carbon future.
