The U.S., Canada, Australia and the UK have been accused of failing to meet their United Nations pledge for climate change funding.

According to a report by Carbon Brief, a UK-based think tank, the United States fell short of providing its “fair share” of the funding by $49 billion (US $32 billion),  while other countries like Australia did not pay $2.6 billion (US $1.7 billion) of the UN’s $155 billion (US $100 billion) finance target.
