Every month so far has seen floods, fires, smashed heat records or some combination of extreme weather. Little time remains for leaders to agree on what to do about it.

The COP29 UN climate summit released a first draft deal Thursday which puts at least $1 trillion of financing on the table, yet key details on where that money will come from still need to be ironed out.

The COP29 climate summit presidency released a draft finance deal on Friday that would have developed nations take the lead in providing $250 billion per year by 2035 to help poorer nations - a proposal that drew criticism from all sides.

Wealthier nations offered to more than double to $250bn a year the cash they give developing countries annually to fight climate change.
