Tropical forest protection fund at risk after UK stalls on pledge
Matched: climate
A tropical forest protection fund launched at COP30 under Brazilian leadership is at risk due to a funding shortfall. The UK has stalled on its financial pledge, leaving the initiative short of startup capital. The fund was designed as an innovative financing model to incentivise rainforest preservation, but uncertainty over donor commitments threatens its viability before it can become fully operational.
