Canada has pledged $16 million for a climate disaster fund at the COP28 climate conference, after world leaders approved it to help vulnerable nations cope with the impact of drought, floods and rising seawater.

Canada’s net-zero advisor Catherine Abreu calls the fund a “significant” step. She says Canada has been “showing up” in conversations about supporting vulnerable countries but questioned whether it is doing enough to meet its own climate goals.

Abreu also suggests that countries may have difficulties meeting emissions commitments without steps to phase-out fossil fuels.

She spoke with Global’s Jaden Lee-Lincoln about what she hopes is accomplished at summit to bring us closer to this goal.
