On the final official day of COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan, it is still unclear if this year's United Nations climate summit will lead to an agreement before the end of the official conference or if talks will extend into the weekend. The COP29 presidency has released a draft text that calls for a $1.3 trillion in annual climate financing by 2035, but it only obligates rich countries to provide $250 billion of that total. Climate justice activists and members of civil society who held a protest at COP29 on Friday say that amount falls far short of what's needed, demanding "trillions, not billions." _Democracy Now!_ was there.
