Rishi Sunak is likely to make a series of announcements on the energy transition, climate financing and forest and nature preservation. He will also unveil a major international climate change package as he hands over the baton to Egypt on Monday at Cop27.

As part of this package, the UK government is likely to commit to tripling its funding for climate adaptation, from £500 million ($568m) in 2019 to £1.5 billion in 2025.

The prime minister shall also pledge £65m in funding for the Nature, People and Climate Investment Fund, which supports indigenous and local forest communities, and new financing for Treevive, which is working to conserve and restore two million hectares of tropical forest.
