Cop31 host urges rich nations to spend more on climate than defence
Original: Cop31 host urges wealthy countries to spend ‘much more’ on climate than defence https://www. theguardian.com/environment
The country set to host the Cop31 climate summit, working alongside Pacific partners such as Fiji and Tuvalu, has called on wealthy nations to spend 'much more' on tackling climate change than on defence budgets. The appeal directly challenges rising military spending priorities among Nato members and other rich economies, framing global warming as the greater security threat for vulnerable nations.
Why now: Rising defence budgets and upcoming Cop31 negotiations make the trade-off between military and climate spending highly topical.
