By Nikhil Ghanekar Following days of intense negotiations, nearly 200 countries agreed on the creation of a new global 'loss and damage' fund for vulnerable countries facing devastation from extreme weather events triggered by climate change. The creation of the new fund was considered a silver lining at the conclusion of the annual 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27), even though little progress was made on the other big agenda of cutting carbon emissions that contribute the most to climate change. While the decision to create this new fund was celebrated, much of the spadew...

Sharm el Sheikh (Egypt) (AFP) - A fraught UN summit wrapped up Sunday with a landmark deal on funding to help vulnerable countries cope with devastating climate impacts -- but also anger over a failure to be more ambitious on cutting emissions. The two-week talks in Egypt's Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, which at times appeared to teeter on the brink of collapse, delivered a major breakthrough on a fund for climate "loss and damage". Pakistani climate minister Sherry Rehman said COP27 "responded to the voices of the vulnerable". "We have struggled for 30 years on this path, and today in Sh...

By BOOM Team In the ongoing UN climate change conference in Egypt's Sharm el-Sheikh, India has said that no sector, fuel source, or gas should be singled out for action in the fight against climate change. India's environment minister Bhupender Yadav said the goals to control emissions for the next three decades have been the "dominant narrative that developed countries have sought to establish." "Unfortunately, promises, either for 2030 or 2050, have been the dominant narrative that developed countries have sought to establish," Yadav said adding that at this year's COP, issues of relevance t...

Fort McKay (Canada) (AFP) - The acrid stench of gasoline permeates the air. And the soot coats everything in sight: the trees, the bushes, even the snow in winter. And all day long, explosions send the birds soaring to safety. At Fort McKay near Fort McMurray in western Canada, in the heart of the country's boreal forest, the pines and the people were long ago cleared out to make way for huge open-pit mines dedicated to excavation of oil sands. It's one of the biggest industrial projects in the world: as seen from above, the zone is in stark contrast to the vast expanse of green surrounding it...

Pessamit (Canada) (AFP) - Even though he lives in the middle of Canada's boreal forest, Jean-Luc Kanape can sometimes go weeks without seeing a single caribou. But for as long as he can remember, the animals have been part of his life. For centuries, "our ancestors survived thanks to the caribous -- using its meat, pelts and tools made from its bones," says Kanape, a member of the Innu Indigenous group. "Now, it's our turn to help them." The caribou is a symbol of the power of the subarctic boreal forest, but also the beating heart of Canada's Indigenous culture. But the broad-snouted deer is ...

Fort McMurray (Canada) (AFP) - It burns, it drifts, it falls victim to insects. And it's shrinking. The boreal forest, which is second only to the Amazon in terms of its vital role in ensuring the future of the planet, encircles the Arctic -- and it is in just as much danger from climate change as the South American rainforest. The deep, verdant green ring -- which stretches across Canada, Scandinavia, Russia and Alaska -- has been weakened by increasing forest fires, the melting of permafrost, intensifying insect infestations and warming temperatures. Experts are categorical in their warnings...

Sharm el Sheikh (Egypt) (AFP) - President Joe Biden vowed at UN climate talks on Friday that the United States was on track to slash its carbon emissions, urging all nations to ramp up their own efforts to avert catastrophic global warming. His speech came at the halfway point of a two-week COP27 conference in Egypt where rich polluters like the US are under pressure to finally provide the funding developing countries have been promised in the battle against climate change. Biden touted the passage of a massive, $369 billion spending package to green the US economy as an achievement that would...
