The 28th Conference of the Parties (Cop28) in  Dubai is in full swing. Debates, negotiations, discussions, arguments, and counterarguments around the Green Climate Fund and the Loss and Damage Fund are the key talking points in the early days of Cop28. 

Amidst these intense negotiations and complex financial debates, bold moves such as tripling the world’s renewable energy generation capacity by 2030 and cutting methane emissions by 30% by 2030 are being agreed upon.
