Rund 3 Milliarden Dollar. So viel hat Norwegen als Beitrag für den #TFFF angekündigt, den Lula auf der #COP30 gelauncht hat. Frankreich will 500 Millionen Euro in den Topf werfen. Kolumbien, die Niederlande und Portugal sind mit kleineren Summen dabei.
Wird Merz heute für DE Geld in den Topf werfen?

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer just cut the UK aid budget from 0.5% of GNI to 0.3% in 2027 to fund increases in defence spending.
He says he’s making tough choices, but cutting funding for the world’s poorest people is the easiest—and cruellest—choice he could make (1/4)

Following along at the resumed #COP16 meetings today in #Rome on biodiversity.
These are expected to be a streamlined version of the official meetings in October. The pressure is on delegates to conclude the unfinished business of Colombia.
Today’s focus: resource mobilization

About 25 years ago, we unknowingly passed one of the biggest ecological milestones: agricultural productivity outpaced population growth.
Since then, we use a little less farm land every year. In Europe alone, half the size of Germany has been abandoned.

“I think that when we finish 2024, overall deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon will be between 60% and 65% less than deforestation in 2022,” said Carlos Nobre.
How did Brazil slash deforestation — and can others recreate the win?
The comeback of Lula and Silva capitalized on the policies they once built. Their success can be a model for climate development — and show where financing does the most good.

The m&m was born in a mix of WW2 military procurement and nepotism within Hersheys. That and more I learned in this excellent history of the US chocolate industry

It’s our duty to ensure that rainforest protection doesn’t harm the most vulnerable communities. The EU Deforestation Regulation risks just that. So we built EUDR Tracer – the free tool for smallholders and cooperatives. We are testing it now. Please let me know if you have any suggestions!

The latest draft of the climate finance goal (aka NCQG) has caused outrage at #COP29. At the heart of the anger is the amount --- just $250 billion per year. Developing countries have been demanding $1 trillion. 🧵
