Original: Nepal’s flash floods: a devastating reflection of weakening international climate responsibility
Nepal has been hit by flash floods, which commentators are describing as a devastating consequence of weakening international climate responsibility. The argument being made is that wealthy nations are failing to meet their commitments on climate finance and emissions, leaving vulnerable countries like Nepal to absorb the worst impacts. Coverage frames the disaster not just as a natural event but as a failure of global climate policy.
