Should rich countries pay climate reparations to poor countries?

Rich countries are slashing climate aid by $68B while demanding poor countries mobilize 16x more private capital. The math doesn't work. Real progress requires wealthy polluters to pay their climate debts https://t.co/duGUUO5ujk

Rich countries promised $100B/year for climate finance. They failed. Meanwhile, vulnerable nations pay the price in floods, heat, and hunger. This is not climate leadership. #ClimateCrisis #ClimateJustice #LossAndDamage https://t.co/74ncsRhmQO

8/9. ✊It's time for rich polluting countries to pay their #ClimateDebt! 🔎See the attribution study from World Weather Attribution here: https://t.co/AgkhvGm320

1️⃣ THE PRINCIPLE: POLLUTERS PAY Rich countries are responsible for 92% of climate breakdown. The Law: Those most responsible must pay. We are demanding public finance, not charity. ⚖️🌍 #ClimateJustice https://t.co/MozZK22DeI

Climate collapse is already being felt every day, everywhere: from catastrophic flooding here in the UK to countries like Brazil. Rich countries like the UK must pay their fair share for the damage caused by centuries of pollution. Read the full letter: https://t.co/AlwseD1YIc

4️⃣ WHERE’S THE MONEY? 💰 Make Polluters Pay • Wealth Tax on the 1% • Climate Damages Tax (CDT) on fossil fuel extraction • Levies on business/first-class flights & private jets • Financial Transaction Taxes Rich countries found $16T for COVID. They can find this.

This is a credible idea, it will make the biggest polluters pay for the damage they have caused. The richest should never be allowed to constantly feed their greed. If all countries apply wealth taxes, where will the rich run to? https://t.co/Bus8uZxQug

@vidhi_vas_ @Vidyut We are also trying to get them to pay us for climate change as well, which is caused by excessive consumption of these rich countries They should pay up. India should do the same for its people

The Case for Global Climate Reparations - https://t.co/zmaivgegym https://t.co/brGo62ue2p First get the rich in the US (and throughout the developed countries) to pay their fair share. Otherwise this discussion is utterly divorced from reality.
