Grants needed to tackle the climate crisis

September 25, 2023

Barbados doesn’t want the upcoming United Nations Climate Change Conference or COP28, to be just a talk shop.

Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley shared the view as she zeroed in on previous commitments and lack of action.

She also stressed that short-term debt won’t cut it for countries on the front line of the climate crisis.

The Barbadian Leader was among the panel for a recent discussion hosted by the Global Clinton Initiative on Funding Earth’s Future: How to Scale Finance in Frontline Communities.

Ms. Mottley added a way must be found to finance countries to net zero.
