Developing countries are uniting to demand that wealthier nations, particularly in the G20, take responsibility for climate change mitigation and financial assistance. As climate-related disasters disproportionately impact these nations, leaders emphasize the need for urgent action ahead of Brazil’s pivotal climate summit. They argue that the pollution caused by industrialized countries holds them accountable for rising temperatures and extreme weather events. With insufficient funding from previous climate agreements, developing nations stress that adaptation—focused on essential sectors such as agriculture and water—is fundamental for their survival and economic stability.
Africa, responsible for less than 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions, remains disproportionately affected by climate change, which is driven by the pollution of the G20.
Adaptation is essential to our agriculture, water, and food security, especially for vulnerable nations needing support to tackle climate devastation.
It is unacceptable that this devastation is caused by a few countries in the world; they must take responsibility for their actions.
Developing nations are asking rich countries to cut emissions and provide financial assistance to tackle climate change impacts effectively.
