The Alliance of Small Island States has long championed the highest level of ambition on climate, often leading by example. You have also brought solutions and built consensus. Your voices, as climate leaders, problem solvers and bridge builders, are needed now more than ever.

     

    The United Nation is your steadfast supporter and partner. We will continue to push for more ambition and climate action by all – especially the G20, who account for 80 percent of global emissions. We will continue to call for a renewable revolution, and for developed countries to provide developing countries with the finance and technology they need to transition to a net-zero and climate resilient future. We will continue to push developed countries to make good on their $100 billion climate finance commitment. We will push for developed countries to provide clarity this year on their Glasgow commitment to double adaptation finance. And we will push to ensure your eligibility and access to that finance.”
