The series of talks on climate change among 200 nations currently being held in Marrakesh, Morocco has been tainted by a strong unease regarding upcoming changes in climate change finance, due to policies likely to be enacted by the future president of the United States. Although President-elect Donald Trump is a climate change sceptic, and has threatened to pull finding to combat climate change entirely, many nations have reaffirmed their support for the Paris Agreement's goal of eliminating net greenhouse gas emissions. If he acts on his beliefs, the promise made by multiple global powers to raise climate finance from a combined $100 billion a year, promised to be carried out by 2020.
