No Time to Lose: CVF-V20 Response to the Baku to Belem Roadmap to $1.3 Trillion
The CVF-V20 welcomes the publication of the Report on the Baku to Belém Roadmap to $1.3T. The horrific impact of the recent, category 5, Hurricane Melissa on Jamaica, Haiti and Cuba and Super Typhoon Fung-wong in the Philippines has only highlighted the growing severity of climate change and the damage it inflicts on countries least responsible for the crisis. The need for a clear and inclusive pathway to meet climate finance needs for the long haul could not be more urgent. Climate vulnerable economies have acted decisively and led the way by advancing ambitious Climate Prosperity Plans, through our nationally determined contributions, and national adaptation plans. It is time for COP30 to reflect similar ambition with the level of seriousness and urgency required to rapidly mobilize finance at the scale and speed demanded by climate science and the level of suffering being experienced in our countries.
