Broken Climate Promises Hurt World’s Poorest Nations

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reported that wealthy nations—especially the U.S.—have failed to deliver on climate finance promises to poorer countries. At the African Climate Summit, leaders including Kenya’s President William Ruto emphasized that Africa, the least-polluting continent, is suffering tens of thousands of deaths due to climate inaction. McIntyre warned that under the Trump administration, U.S. support for global climate aid is unlikely to improve.
