‘This is our final offer’: Deal hangs in balance at COP27 climate talks
‘This is our final offer’: Deal hangs in balance at COP27 climate talks
Talks are running right down to the wire at the COP27 climate summit, with host nation Egypt today extending the conference into Saturday in a bid to carve out a last-minute deal.
The Egyptian COP presidency came under fire for leaving it to the final day of the two weeks of negotiations to draft a pact, leaving little time for countries to sign it off.
Until late Thursday, countries were at an impasse on the issue of who should pay for climate damage in vulnerable countries, such as typhoons dumping water on small islands or drought leaving people starving in east Africa.
