Update: 2025-11-14
Description
Welcome to COP30 Covered - the daily podcast show from the award-winning edie team which will be keeping you informed and inspired during the 2025 UN climate summit in Brazil.
This seventh episode, released Friday 14 November 2025, focuses on closing the climate finance gap.
Countries have already committed to providing $300bn of public climate finance a year, but have never achieved this pledge. Now, they want to lean on philanthropists and the private sector to reach $1.3trn per year by 2035.
How can this vision be turned into reality? We ask our expert guest speaker, the Green Finance Institute's head of missions James Hooton.
We also bring you the biggest headlines from the UN climate summit in brief, covering new figures on fossil fuel lobbyists attending and shocking news about how past climate finance allocations have been directed.
Your hosts are:
- edie content editor Sarah George
- edie editor Matt Mace
- edie senior reporter Sidhi Mittal
