Day 5 at COP28 and climate finance and the gender was at spotlight. Here are the updates:
- After saying, “there is no science behind the phasing out of fossil fuels”, the COP28 president called for a preference and made a shocking statement, “We’re here because we very much believe and respect the science”. It is nothing more than trying to overshadow the real intentions.
- A Gender Responsive Just Transitions and Climate Action Partnership was announced at the conference which has already been endorsed by 60 parties and aims to address the disproportionate impacts of climate related job loss on women.
- Samoa has become the eleventh nation to call for the Non-Proliferation Fossil Fuels Treaty at the climate summit. It is the third country to call for the treaty after Colombia and Palau at the COP28.
