EU wants money from ‘oil-rich countries’ for biodiversity ahead of COP17
The European Union is aiming for “financial commitments from oil-rich countries” to support global biodiversity efforts ahead of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP17), scheduled in Armenia in 2026...
Analysts say the EU’s push reflects recognition that relying solely on traditional donors will not meet the targets of the Global Biodiversity Framework.
COP17 in Armenia will test the international community’s ability to bridge political divides and unlock finance from unconventional sources.
Of course this is not the other COP17 to be held in 2026 in Ulaanbaatar the capital city of Mongolia, although coincidentally they want money as well.
COP17, set for 2026 during the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists (IYRP) — declared by the United Nations General Assembly and championed by Mongolia — will build on efforts to promote the sustainable management, restoration and conservation of rangelands.

How many of these "COP"s are there? I thought the "climate change" thing was the only one. Boy, those private jets are going to be busy! And who's paying for it all? Do you need to ask?
ReplyDeleteAnon - I also thought the climate game was the only one. I don't know how many there are, but as you say, we don't need to ask who pays.
ReplyDeleteMongolia has a lot of " range". Over 1.5 million square kilometers. That is a lot of spondulicks.
ReplyDeleteThe only way to get to Mongolia is travel by land or air across either Russia or China. An interesting dilemma for all those polies who tell us that these nations are evil, our enemies, and just generally very naughty nations. How badly do the polies, the Greetas, the MSM and usual hangers on want their expenses.
By the way 'n' that, would this be good time to raise the topic of "reparations" for all that Chinggis did to the rest of the world?
Doonhamer - maybe Mongolia could be paid by an agreement to deduct any notional rangeland payments from "reparations".
