@planetandprecedent: Even if adaptation finance is tripled by 2035, it would still cover less than a third of what developing countries need. UNEP’s 2026 Adaptation Gap Report puts that need at roughly $305 billion a year. In 2024, international public adaptation finance was only $28.2 to $31.7 billion. Tripled, it would meet just 20 to 29 per cent. This funding pays for flood defences, early warning systems and drought-resilient farming. COP31 opens on 9 November.
