Iraq’s Climate Toll: President Nizar Amidi says climate change has erased more than half of Iraq’s farmland, displaced about 20,000 people and accelerated desertification; he called for easier access to loss-and-damage funding. COP31 Pressure: A new report says global climate action has stalled for five years and current policies put the world on track for 2.7°C of warming. UN chief António Guterres urged a faster shift from fossil fuels and $300 billion a year in climate finance for developing countries by 2035. Clean-Energy Push: Türkiye and Saudi Arabia signed a deal for 3,000 megawatts of wind power, while the European Investment Bank plans $6 billion for Türkiye’s clean-energy transition.
