OPINION | COP 27 in Egypt is coming to an end, and it seems that there are going to be a lot of difficulties with getting the world to take proper action on climate change. The debates, as expected, revolved around who’s going to pay.

Developing countries are determined that industrialised nations must foot the bill to fix a problem they are in large part responsible for. There was a lot of discussion about loss and damage, and who pays for the catastrophic consequences of climate disasters, which are exacerbated by the rise in global warming.

Much of the focus is on South Africa’s major problem. Our power is coal-based, and unless that changes we won’t meet our targets for lowering our greenhouse gas emissions. That issue is obviously compounded by the fact that it is also a system that is not functioning very well at the moment. But these issues and debates have been well ventilated and will continue to be so.
