The Little Climate Finance Book

The scale of financing needed to tackle climate change is far greater than the current level of commitment from developed countries. There is no more pressing issue at the UNFCCC, and the Little Climate Finance Book is a guide to the multitude of proposals for addressing it. The different proposals are presented using clear non-technical language, and a visual framework that allows the options to be understood and compared at a glance.

The Little Climate Finance Book is presented in three sections corresponding to the three key areas of international climate negotiations: revenue generation, the options for delivery of finance and the proposals for institutional arrangements.  The book also compares the different options and draws conclusions across these different areas.

The Little Climate Finance Book has been developed by the Global Canopy Programme in collaboration with key experts from the Overseas Development Institute, Oxford Institute for Energy Studies and the Australian National University. The book has been prodcued in English with translations into French, Spanish and Portuguese.
