'The Australian government has committed an extra $50 million towards a global
fund to deal with the loss and damage caused by climate change.

The government made the announcement at the United Nations climate summit in
Azerbaijan, which is trying to set a new global goal for funding.

"Australia will become the sixth largest contributor to the Fund for Responding
to Loss and Damage," Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen said in his address at
COP29 in Baku.

"This builds on our foundational $100 million contribution to the Pacific
Resilience Facility, a Pacific-owned facility that will support locally-led,
small-scale projects across the Blue Pacific Continent that respond to loss and
damage."'
