Foreword

The international community is at a defining moment for its vision of containing climate change through swift and bold action towards a low-carbon transition. Even though the least developed countries account for less than 4 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions, they are on the front lines of the climate crisis. Over the last 50 years, 69 per cent of worldwide deaths caused by climate-related disasters occurred in the least developed countries, which pay a disproportionately high and unfair price in terms of economic, social and ecological consequences from climate change and environmental degradation.
