According to the United Nations Development Program, 54 countries, accounting for half the world’s population, face such critical debt burdens that they simply cannot finance climate adaptation and mitigation on their own. Most of these same countries are in the most climate-vulnerable regions in the world, setting them up for compounding disasters.

Guests: Ani Dasgupta, President and CEO, World Resources Institute Featuring stories from Amy Booth and Elna Schütz for Heat of The Moment podcast  For show notes and related links, visit https://www.climateone.org/watch-and-listen/podcasts Learn more about your ad choices.
