President calls for multi lateral climate action financed from polluters taxes

We are calling for a new multilateral climate change action mechanism financed from global carbon taxes on fossil fuel, aviation, marine transport, among other transactions, to fund decarbonisation, adaptation and nature protection and regeneration. Such is a bold step that the globe requires to protect our environment and secure a sustainable future for all. During a round-table on The Alliance for Green Infrastructure in the ongoing New Global Financing Pact Summit in Paris, France; pushed for the deployment of the proposed $500 billion a year in new lending to refinance maturing official debt into new long-term loans of 50-year -old maturity with a 10-20 years grace period.https://twitter.com/WilliamsRuto/status/1672018211468988418
