Nepal has taken a very clear & strong stance demanding #ClimateJustice; the govt states that it is essential for the world's largest economies to step forward to assist in the country's recovery & reconstruction following devastating floods. #ActNow #Limit1o5C www.theguardian.com/world/2026/s...
Nepal is demanding $20m in climate compensation for the recent devastating floods, as a senior minister called on the world’s most polluting nations to wake up and accept share responsibility for the disaster, as Nepal contributes less than 0.1% of global greenhouse gas emissions
