Bangladesh nominated to green climate fund
Bangladesh has been nominated by the least developed countries (LDCs) to the Green Climate Fund (GCF) to help poor countries fighting global warming, said Minister for Environment and Forests Dr Hasan Mahmud.
The minister disclosed this yesterday at a seminar here on adaptation programme to face climate risk saying Bangladesh's nomination to the GCF is the recognition of its role by the climatic vulnerable countries in the international forum.
The GCF was launched at a UN climate conference in Durban last December to help channel up to $100 billion a year by 2020 in aid to poor, vulnerable countries to adapt to climate change and cut emissions.
