Oxfam Launches Climate Financing Action

Oxfam Ireland is asking campaigners to urge the Taoiseach and the Minister for the Environment to ensure that climate financing is new money.

Ireland has committed €100 million, approximately €33 million per year, in fast-track money to support developing countries cope with the devastating effects of the changing climate. Oxfam Ireland is calling for this money to be separate from our existing aid commitment to reach 0.7% of national income by 2015.

To join the call, you can take action here.
