Abstract

I (© AFP 6/9 2023; other sources as referenced in text) i Conflict Deaths Climate change threatens to exacerbate conflict in fragile nations across the globe and lead to increased deaths, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) said in a report published on September 4th. More than half of these nations, which are disproportionately burdened by climate change, are in Africa. B Green growth is only achievable through a massive scaling up of international funding. b African leaders on September 6th demanded sweeping changes to the global financial system and urged the international community to back a surge in renewable energy as they wrapped up a landmark climate summit in B Kenya. b The three-day summit - whose theme was I Driving Green Growth and Climate Finance Solutions for Africa and the World i - attracted many world leaders, including B EU b chief Ursula von der Leyen and B US b climate envoy John Kerry.
