What you need to know:
Africa is the smallest contributor to global CO2 emissions.
Implementation of climate action remains a hurdle for Africa countries.
Governments, Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) and the private sector need to work together, for the continent to mobilise enough resources to drive its climate action agenda.
This was one of the messages relayed during the Climate Change Global Business Summit, an event convened by The European House – Ambrosetti, to tackle the critical issue of insufficient climate finance hindering Africa's fight against climate change.
