Berlin (dpa) – Germany has already exceeded an international climate aid target originally pledged for 2025. As the Süddeutsche Zeitung reported, a total of 6.3 billion euros was spent on this last year. Under the previous Federal Government in 2021, Germany pledged to increase annual funding to support developing countries from four to six billion euros by 2025 at the latest.
According to the report, 2.8 billion euros – or 44 percent of the funds – have been invested in the area of climate adaptation, with 270 million euros going into a fund to advance the production and use of hydrogen. Several hundred million have been invested in partnerships with South Africa and Indonesia to establish alternatives to coal mining in those countries.
