They address the current scale of ambition to finance climate mitigation and adaptation, and discuss the different sources for the trillions of dollars in investment needed to address the impacts of climate change. They also speak about a third pillar of climate finance which goes beyond the traditional categories of mitigation and adaptation to address losses and damages.
Together, they delve into the New Collective Quantified Goal (NCQG) and what its pivotal role shall be in addressing the financial needs for global climate action. As a key provision of the Paris Agreement, climate finance has helped drive ambitious goals toward achieving net zero. Tune in to understand how the NCQG is shaping efforts to combat climate change and what it means for the future of global sustainability.
