The United Nations Climate Change Conference COP29 concluded with late-night negotiations, introducing a new finance goal of $300 billion by 2035. The session faced drama and controversy, with some delegations exiting in protest over insufficient mitigation measures.
COP29 concluded at 5:31 a.m. on Sunday, significantly later than its scheduled end on Friday evening. The conference, dubbed the 'Finance COP', introduced a new finance goal of $300 billion by 2035. However, the process was marred by dramatic late-night negotiations and the unexpected exit of the Alliance of Small Island States ( AOSIS ) and the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) late on Saturday evening. They cited dissatisfaction with the lack of progressive steps in mitigation and funding.
The marathon session did not facilitate their demands and concluded with the adoption of the $300 billion climate finance goal
