What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Pacific health and climate officials are calling for urgent action and stronger climate finance as they prepare for Pre-COP and COP31 discussions. Officials state that climate change is already impacting Pacific communities through rising temperatures, sea levels, drought, flooding, and changing disease patterns. Tuvalu emphasized that climate finance must be treated as an investment in the survival of its people, not simply as environmental funding.
