Talking points
- Developing countries need a guarantee of long-term finance to plan to develop in a green way and adapt to the impacts of climate change.
- The lack of willingness of rich countries to fulfill their promise to meet the $100 bn finance commitments promised 4 years ago is threatening the entire international process at the Warsaw talks and would kill prospects of a deal in Paris in 2015.
- Poor countries need predictability to know the money is coming. And this isn’t new -- the World Bank gets topped up every ten years, so they know what they can do with the funds available. This is no different.
- Hilary Clinton promised the $100 bn but the US is pushing back against this, and other countries are using this as an excuse to delay action to cut pollution.
