With the leadup to COP28 marked by scandal after scandal and geopolitical tensions pitting the Global North and South against each other, establishing a loss and damage fund and pouring hundreds of millions into it on the first day of the UN climate conference is an unprecedented achievement, advocates say.

New commitments under the Paris Agreement to slash more planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions are due in 2025, the UN's climate change executive secretary told delegates on the opening day of the annual climate change negotiations, upping the pressure on countries like Canada that remain off track.
