A coalition of developed nations including the United States and the United Kingdom have issued a draft proposal on loss and damage funding, a source familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday.
The proposal would set up "new and enhanced funding arrangements for assisting developing countries that are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change in responding to loss and damage," according to a draft seen by Reuters. It would also create "an expert group" to tackle key questions about where the funding should come from and how the funding mechanism should be run.It was not immediately clear how the proposal differed from an earlier.
That wording suggested high-emitting emerging economies like China would have to contribute, rather than having the fund financed only by rich nations that have historically contributed the most to global warming.Our Standards:
