China, Brazil Urge Developed Countries To Meet Climate Finance Pledges

China and Brazil, whose leaders met on Friday, called on developed countries to keep their promises to provide $100 billion a year to poorer nations to fight the impacts of climate change.


"We continue to be very concerned that climate finance provided by developed countries continues to fall short of the $100 billion per year commitment, as it has every year since the goal was set in 2009," a joint statement said after a meeting between presidents Xi Jinping and Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in Beijing.



"We urge developed countries to honour their unfulfilled climate finance obligations, and... provide a clear roadmap of doubling adaptation finance."
