Will UN Climate Talks in Azerbaijan Deliver on Finance and Emission Reductions?

The upcoming COP29, set to begin on November 11 in Baku, Azerbaijan, comes at a critical juncture. With 2024 on track to be the hottest year on record and global emissions still on the rise, the urgency of addressing the climate crisis has never been greater. The focus of this year’s conference is on climate finance, with countries expected to decide on a new target for funding lower-income nations, building on the previous goal of $100 billion per year.

Key priorities for COP29 include reaching an agreement on a robust climate finance goal, submitting more ambitious emission reduction commitments, adequately resourcing the UN Loss and Damage Fund, transitioning away from fossil fuels, and supporting climate adaptation efforts. These actions are essential in light of recent scientific reports that highlight the gap between current emissions reduction efforts and the goals set out in the Paris Agreement.

The International Energy Agency’s World Energy Outlook underscores the need for rapid emissions cuts to reach net zero by mid-century, while the UNEP’s 2024 Emissions Gap Report warns of the risks of a 2.6-3.1°C temperature increase. The 2024 NDC Synthesis Report shows that current national climate plans fall short of what’s needed, putting the world on track for a temperature increase of 2.1 to 2.8 °C this century. Additionally, the latest WMO GHG Bulletin reveals record levels of heat-trapping emissions in 2023, further emphasizing the need for urgent action.

As stakeholders prepare for COP29, it is crucial for nations to commit to bold and equitable outcomes that address the pressing challenges of the climate crisis. The role of civil society organizations, like the Union of Concerned Scientists, in advocating for science-based and just policies cannot be overstated. The decisions made at COP29 will have far-reaching implications for global efforts to combat climate change, making it imperative for all parties to prioritize meaningful action.

In the United States, efforts to ramp up clean energy deployment, phase out fossil fuels, and invest in climate resilience are crucial components of fulfilling global climate commitments. However, the influence of fossil fuel interests in undermining climate policies poses a significant challenge. Policymakers must resist pressure from these entities and prioritize the well-being of people and the planet.

As the negotiations unfold in Baku, it is essential to stay informed and engaged. The outcomes of COP29 will shape the future trajectory of global climate action, underscoring the importance of collective efforts to address the climate crisis. Stay tuned for updates on the progress and outcomes of the conference.
