The COP29 president Mukhtar Babayev says "time is not on our side" as the UN's climate summit is on the verge of collapse

A bitter fallout erupted between richer and poorer countries over money to help tackle climate change and several countries walked out of negotiations

Developing countries have dismissed an offer of $250bn (£199bn) per year to help them tackle climate change – some want a figure closer to $500bn

One agreement has been made, on carbon markets, which has been "nine years in the making"

The anger here from developing countries is palpable, our environment correspondent Matt McGrath writes

Nearly 200 countries are trying to reach a deal at the summit in Azerbaijan, which has already overrun by more than 24 hours

I am going to engage in wrongthink. But I am pretty dang sure one of the main reasons some of those nations have high rates of poverty is the over abundance corrupt government officials. So why should the more affluent nations cover government greed.

We’re already paying for “a much, much, much better life” for 35-50 million freeloading illegal aliens. The UN can “drop” the extortion money for the Climatic Changers. We’ve paid ten times our “fair share”. Get a GoFundMe page!

The only talking about the climate that needs to be done, is how to adapt to it. If you confiscated every penny beyond mere survival from everyone on earth and spent it all on climate, you could not change the global temperature by 1° or the sea level levels by an inch.

My speakwrite tends to put commas where not intended, and leave them out where necessary.
