Nepal says big polluters must ‘wake up’ as it calls for climate compensation over flood disaster
Nepal's foreign minister Shisir Khanal urged the world's largest economies to provide climate compensation following devastating floods, saying they must 'wake up' to their responsibility. He noted Nepal contributes less than 0.1% of global greenhouse‑gas emissions, yet bears severe impacts. The appeal seeks financial support from major polluters to aid recovery and future resilience and adaptation measures.
