<\/a> Nations will discuss loss and damage financing for the first time at <\/strong>COP27: <\/strong>A \u201cbreakthrough\u201d agreement allowing diplomats to officially debate for the first time who should pay for damage sustained by the countries most vulnerable to climate change was announced on the first day of COP27 yesterday.<\/p>\n

High drama: <\/strong>The agreement was hashed out during two days of fraught preliminary talks which saw the opening plenary session delayed for hours<\/a>, with negotiators unable to agree on whether to put it on the agenda.<\/p>\n

The goal:<\/strong> Delegates are aiming to reach a conclusive decision on loss and damage \u201cno later than 2024,\u201d Egypt\u2019s Foreign Minister and COP27 President Sameh Shoukry said in his opening speech<\/a> (watch, runtime: 14:19<\/a>), during which he emphasized the talks would be constructive and focused on \u201ccooperation and facilitation\u201d rather than \u201cliability and compensation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Progress:<\/strong> The agreement \u201ccreates for the first time an institutionally stable space on the formal agenda of the COP and the Paris Agreement to discuss the pressing issue of funding arrangements needed to deal with existing gaps in responding to loss and damage,\u201d Bloomberg<\/a> reported Shoukry saying.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019ll be a tough two weeks ahead:<\/strong> Harjeet Singh, head of global political strategy at the nonprofit Climate Action Network International, described<\/a> the weekend\u2019s negotiations as \u201cextremely challenging,\u201d and others are voicing trepidation about the likelihood of an agreement over the next two weeks. \u201cThis is going to be a difficult COP,\u201d one delegate told the Guardian.<\/p>\n

A showdown<\/a><\/strong> has been brewing for some time:<\/strong> Wealthy nations have opposed official discussions on climate compensation for over a decade and at COP26 blocked a proposal for a dedicated loss and damage financing body, supporting instead a dialogue for funding discussions to take place over three years. With rich nations already being accused<\/a> of \u201cbullying\u201d poorer countries during the weekend\u2019s talks, expect the question of who pays for the climate crisis to be a major source of tension at this year\u2019s summit.<\/p>\n

Climate finance has been a key area of focus for policymakers in the run-up to the <\/strong>summit<\/strong>, with Egypt climate czar Mahmoud Mohieldin being particularly vocal in calling for compensation for climate change-driven damage and a funding shift away from debt, towards investment (here<\/a> and here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

FACING \u201cCLIMATE CHAOS\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another note hit hard and early yesterday: The need for action in the face of <\/strong>\u201cclimate chaos.\u201d <\/strong>COP27 must spur urgent and credible climate action, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in a video message yesterday, terming the UN\u2019s newly-released State of the Global Climate Report 2022<\/a> a \u201cchronicle of climate chaos\u201d (watch, runtime: 1:11<\/a>). Guterres echoed the message of special representative for the COP27 presidency Wael Aboulmagd, who emphasized the importance of implementation<\/a> to reporters over the weekend.<\/p>\n

And the importance of moving beyond COP26 pledges: <\/strong>It\u2019s time to start delivering on the Paris Agreement and other previously agreed climate pledges, Aboulmagd said. Last year\u2019s summit in Glasgow saw several important pledges<\/a> agreed on, including \u201cphasing down\u201d the use of coal, halting deforestation by 2030, slashing methane emissions by 30% by 2030, and submitting updated national plans with more ambitious targets.<\/p>\n

Passing the torch:<\/strong> Yesterday saw outgoing COP President Alok Sharma hand the presidency to Shoukry, who chaired the opening plenary session.<\/p>\n

Sharma also warned against delaying action:<\/strong> \u201cOur shared long-term future does not lie in fossil fuels,\u201d Sharma said in his address yesterday. While \u201cevery major report published this year underscores the point that progress has been made \u2026 there is so much more to be done in this critical decade,\u201d Sharma added.<\/p>\n

PAYING THE BILL<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can expect to hear lots more about climate finance and the need for<\/strong> implementation over the next two weeks. <\/strong>These were two major conference themes out of four flagged in EnterpriseAM\u2019s<\/a> pre-COP roundup yesterday. To that end:<\/p>\n

DFIs ready to scale up mitigation and adaptation support:<\/strong> A group of leading development finance institutions have pledged to expand support to countries for mitigation and adaptation in the face of climate change.<\/p>\n

Who\u2019s on board: <\/strong>The African Development Bank, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), European Investment Bank, and the World Bank will help countries and other clients include adaptation and mitigation into their overall economic planning, offering support in areas including policymaking, investment plans and securing funding sources, they said in a joint statement (pdf)<\/a> yesterday. Boosting adaptation finance for low-income countries, island states, and vulnerable populations, and increasing concessional finance will be among their priorities, it added.<\/p>\n

By the numbers:<\/strong> Last year, the lenders collectively channeled USD 51 bn in climate finance to low- and middle-income countries \u2014 split 65% for mitigation and 35% for adaptation, according to the EBRD<\/a>. Some USD 31 bn went to high-income countries, with 95% earmarked for mitigation and 5% for adaptation. They mobilized a further USD 41 bn of private finance.<\/p>\n

Other major COP27 themes to keep an eye on: A \u201cjust energy transition\u201d: <\/strong>Individual countries need access to energy even as they work towards hitting their decarbonization targets, said Aboulmagd, noting that natural gas \u2014 the lowest-emission hydrocarbon \u2014 is increasingly viewed as a \u201ctransition fuel.\u201d African public and private sector leaders have made the case<\/a> for the continent to see a \u201cjust energy transition,\u201d where countries can exploit their vast gas reserves. And prominent GCC voices \u2014 including Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser and UAE energy ministry official Yousef Al Ali \u2014 have argued<\/a> that the speed of targeted divestment from fossil fuels isn\u2019t viable, as existing renewables capacity can\u2019t satisfy energy demand.<\/p>\n

And Egypt\u2019s exhortations to not be distracted by political squabbling: <\/strong>COP27 \u201chas to be a watershed moment where the world rises above differences that exist outside of the realm of climate change to come together to address what is perhaps the most universally acknowledged threat to humanity,\u201d Aboulmagd said.<\/p>\n
