BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 18. The countries
subjected to colonization are suffering from environmental
problems, Kenyan MP Stephen Mutinda Mule said at the“Solidarity
for a Colonial-Free and Green Future” event at COP29 in Baku,
Trend reports.
He observed that COP29 beckons for the emancipation of
communities, shackled like forgotten colonies of the world's
nations, from the chains of oppression, while also seeking the
lifeblood of funding to heal the wounds of our planet's climate
crisis.
“Minor communities are the most impacted by climate change.
Colonial legislators are informing people about the outcomes of
COP29 and legislation aimed at leveraging climate funding,” he
added.
The 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the UN
Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29) opened on November
11. COP29, which is being held at the Baku Olympic Stadium, will
continue until November 22. It is the largest event organized by
Azerbaijan to date, and the first time in the region it is being
held in Azerbaijan.
The key expectation from COP29 is to agree on a fair and
ambitious New Collective Quantitative Goal (NCQG) on climate
finance.
A comprehensive suite of 14 groundbreaking initiatives has been
strategically proposed by the COP29 Presidency.
