UK government cuts £85M from climate programs

“Further cuts to climate finance — with a target still in place to spend £11.6bn by 2026 — will mean an even steeper increase in that spend is needed in the coming years,” wrote Ian Mitchell, senior policy fellow at the Center for Global Development.

Mitchell added: “The Government should focus its spending on adaptation and resilience; but take a broad definition, to ensure the projects which have the greatest impact on the poorest and most vulnerable can be prioritised.”
