The COP Presidencies Troika, uniting COP28 with the Azerbaijan and Brazil COP Presidencies, will play a critical role in maintaining political momentum in fighting climate change, COP28 President Dr. Sultan Al Jaber said at the eighth Ministerial on Climate Action (MoCA) in Wuhan, China.
He noted that solidarity was the key to achieving the UAE Consensus and called on the ministers at the event in Wuhan, China, to draw from its "spirit of solidarity" to accelerate implementation of the UAE Consensus.
"We are pushing every country to turn its NDC into a practical plan that transforms the UAE Consensus into facts on the ground. These plans should be comprehensive and balanced across mitigation, adaptation and means of implementation," he said.
The COP28 President reiterated calls for reform of the international financial framework, to make climate finance more available, accessible, and affordable and incentivize private-sector investment.
