In addition, 123 countries signed the Global Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Pledge at COP28 to triple global renewable capacity and double global energy efficiency improvements by 2030, and expand financial support for scaling renewable energy and eficiency programmes in emerging markets and developing economies. It is equally distressing that climate finance, especially for adaptation, has been decreasing instead of growing at a time of worsening climate crisis.
