Global nature talks reach deal but money remains an issue
Current overview (not historical)
Nearly 200 countries reached a deal on new nature action plans after two weeks of talks in Yerevan, Armenia, but progress on targets was limited, with only one of 24 goals completed. Countries acknowledged lagging behind on funding, with only $1 billion pledged at the conference, half of which came from figures like the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation to protect degraded land and restore key species.

- BBC WorldRelated fact: single sourceSource report revisedNear 200 nations agree new nature deal in Armenia, money remains key hurdle
Report first recorded Oct 31, 09:59
Delegates from nearly 200 countries agreed the key parts of a new global biodiversity action plan in Yerevan, Armenia, after nearly two weeks of negotiations. The agreement includes a target to protect 30% of the world's land and seas by the end of the decade, and countries have pledged to protect 623 million acres of degraded land. However, progress on the 24 targets is severely lacking, with the world on track to achieve only one of them. A major barrier to meeting these goals remains funding, as nations are falling short of the $30 billion annual commitment made in 2022, with only over $1 billion pledged at this meeting.
