Lesley Pories, lead policy analyst for WaterAid, said: "While experts touted needs around one trillion dollars for climate assistance, the $300 billion agreement falls drastically short, essentially providing a plank of wood instead of a life raft for the millions who need it."
Christian Aid condemned the recent $300 billion deal at COP29 stating it is "a death sentence for millions," emphasizing the need for a significantly larger financial package than what has been offered to support developing nations against climate change impacts.
UN climate chief Simon Steill characterized the $300 billion deal as an "insurance policy for humanity," in contrast, campaigners highlight its inadequacy against the requested $1.3 trillion that reflects the true needs of developing nations as they tackle climate threats.
