“The roadmap to mobilise $1.3 trillion in climate finance will clearly be key at COP30. Let us be very clear: climate finance is not charity. It is vital for protecting every population and economy, and the global supply chains that every nation depends on for low-inflationary growth, and food and energy security,” Stiell said as he released a progress report on the national adaptation plan (NAP). Adaptation to climate change and finance to fund adaptation strat-

egies is also a critical issue for India, ahead of COP30.
