to get borisjohnson might be able to get some difference ideals to show there is progress happening at cop26. it suggests they could work on deals on the oceans, electric vehicles, there is a lot of pressure on countries to deliver on climate financing for the poorer countries, back in paris in 2015 they all agreed they would give a total of $100 billion by last year to help the least developed countries make the economy is greener, and that has not happened, so borisjohnson will put people under pressure to actually stump up the cash they promised. ivellum under pressure to actually stump up the cash they promised.— under pressure to actually stump up the cash they promised. when we talk about rain forest _ the cash they promised. when we talk about rain forest were _ the cash they promised. when we talk about rain forest were not _ the cash they promised. when we talk about rain forest were not talking - about rain forest were not talking about rain forest were not talking about the amazon because we have a deal with bolsonaro, there are rainforests on the african continent. benjamin
