📢 NEW: Governments continue to funnel billions into fossil fuel-prolonging projects - while clean air gets just 1% of #GlobalDev finance.

Cutting black carbon creates fast wins for climate & health, yet low- & middle-income countries lead the way with little support/finance.

Integrating super pollutants into climate frameworks can unlock crucial funding & keep us on track for 1.5°C @devex.com https://bit.ly/48eIa4F
Slashing super pollutants is a win. So where's the money?
At COP30, nine countries pledged new action on black carbon, but the health and climate gains from cutting super pollutants still don’t count toward global climate targets.
