World leaders meeting in Paris on Thursday could give poorer countries access to hundreds of billions of dollars to tackle climate change. Mia Mottley, Barbados' first female PM, is leading the global fight for this money and tells BBC News that her tiny country urgently needs help. Poorer nations want more money because they did little to cause climate change but face its worst effects. They also struggle to afford expensive projects like renewable energy. Climate finance, including funding for flood defences or solar plants, has long been one of the biggest sticking points in climate negotiations. But Ms Mottley has built a global coalition to support her demand that the international financial system be fundamentally reformed. "We are all in this together", Ms Mottley told BBC News in Paris. "If we don't realise that, we will not act with the urgency that's necessary to save the planet and save lives." The Barbadian prime minister is joint host of the Paris conference with President Emmanuel Macron of France. Dozens of world leaders are attending the Summit for a New Global Financing Pact, including the German Chancellor, the president of Brazil and the new president of the World Bank as well as the prime minister of China and the US Treasury Secretary. The UK is sending its minister for development, Andrew Mitchell. Ms Mottley is determined the meeting deliver results. She describes the threat of climate change as "a death sentence" on the world. "If it is a death sentence, then we need to move with urgency," she explains. Insiders at the summit are expecting an announcement that a target for $100bn worth of a kind of international currency called Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) has been met. These assets will be transferred to low-income countries to be used for climate programmes. But Ms Mottley has an even bigger prize in her sights, a plan dubbed the "Bridgetown Agenda" after the Barbadian capital. It wants to generate more finance for the countries that need it most through a wholesale modernisation of the international monetary system. The current institutions - including the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) - were set up by the victorious nations towards the end of the Second World War at a conference in a ski resort called Bretton Woods in New Hampshire, US The so-called "Bretton Woods system" will celebrate its 80th anniversary next year. Ms Mottley says she wants to make it fit for the challenges of the modern world by moving the focus away from richer nations and towards delivering outcomes that benefit the entire world, like helping developing countries tackle climate change. The reason why these institutions exist is that they were created to help the world in the reconstruction effort after World War Two. We are in a moment that is equal to World War Two with respect to climate," she said. This week the International Energy Agency warned annual investments in clean energy in developing nations will need to triple from $770bn in 2022 to as much as $2.8tn by the early 2030s if the world is to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. One proposal is that institutions like the World Bank offer cheaper loans for climate action projects. It is much more expensive to build flood defences in Barbados or Angola than it is in the Netherlands or the UK, Ms Mottley points out. The same goes for erecting wind turbines or installing solar farms. That is because low-income countries are charged high interest rates - often two or even three times the rates developed nations face. Yet the risks of individual projects don't vary anywhere near as much as that. Another suggestion is that institutions like the World Bank should agree to guarantee loans for climate action in developing nations. That would encourage the private sector to lend at lower interest rates. Experts say these initiatives could generate hundreds of billions of dollars' worth of loans for climate projects in low-income countries. Another proposal involves the creation of an auction in which developing nations would bid for cheap finance for climate projects. This "Climate Mitigation Trust Fund" would be funded by tens of billions of dollars' worth of SDRs and overseen by the IMF and the UN. The winners would be the projects that reduce global warming fastest. It is not expected that a final decision will be made on these proposals, but Ms Mottley is confident that progress will be made. We tell our children we shouldn't put off to tomorrow what we need to do today, Ms Mottley says. "I find myself actually repeating a lot of things that we would say to children, in order to inform global behaviour today," she continues. "That tells us a lot."

silvoclaira:It will be a handicap match |
Two of the world's most high-profile technology billionaires - Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg - have agreed to fight each other in a cage match. Mr Musk posted a message on his social media platform Twitter that he was "up for a cage fight" with Mr Zuckerberg. Mr Zuckerberg, the boss of Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta, then posted a screenshot of Mr Musk's tweet with the caption "send me location". "The story speaks for itself," a Meta spokesperson told the BBC. Mr Musk then replied to Mr Zuckerberg's response with: "Vegas Octagon." The Octagon is the competition mat and fenced-in area used for Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) bouts. The UFC is based in Las Vegas, Nevada. Mr Musk, who turns 52 later this month, also tweeted: "I have this great move that I call "The Walrus", where I just lie on top of my opponent & do nothing." He also tweeted: "I almost never work out, except for picking up my kids & throwing them in the air." Meanwhile, 39-year-old Mr Zuckerberg has already been training in mixed martial arts (MMA) and has recently won jiu-jitsu tournaments. Twitter did not provide a statement when contacted by the BBC for comment. The exchanges have gone viral with social media users debating who would win the bout, while others have posted memes including mocked up posters advertising the fight. Earlier this month, Meta showed staff plans for a text-based social network designed to compete with Twitter, sources have told the BBC. It could allow users to follow accounts they already follow on Instagram, Meta's image-sharing app. It could potentially allow the company to bring over followers from decentralised platforms such as Mastodon. A Meta spokesperson confirmed to the BBC that the platform was in development. The text-based network - which has a working title of P92 - could turn out to be a greater rival to Elon Musk's Twitter than either BlueSky or Mastodon. Zuckerberg go finish musk for ring cage fight
