The FRLD was first agreed at COP27 in 2022, yet still this fund has not spent a single penny. Furthermore, financial pledges to the fund, once fully operational, amount to only about 0.2% of the annual costs of Loss and Damage. Billions, not millions, are needed. If this fund is ever to meet the scale of needs and fulfill its promise, major nations must contribute more. As the first country to pledge money for Loss and Damage, the Scottish Government joining this campaign and adding its voice would significantly encourage others to participate.
