(AP Photo\/Sergei Grits)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Since the beginning of the conference, there has been pressure to strike a deal. U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres asked negotiators Thursday to agree on an &ldquo;ambitious&rdquo; climate finance deal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;[A]llow me to repeat. What we need is clear: Agreement on an ambitious new climate finance goal in Baku in the context of a balanced set of decisions. Through its different components, that goal must mobilize the finance developing countries need,&rdquo; Guterres said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He added that a surge in finance is essential to ensure all nations can set plans to meet the 2015 Paris Agreement goal of limiting global temperatures from passing 1.5 degrees Celsius or 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit.<\/p>\n<p>However, the released draft of the finance deal has already faced criticism from some, including Ali Mohamed, Kenya&rsquo;s special envoy for chair of the African Group of Negotiators, who called it &ldquo;totally unacceptable and inadequate,&rdquo; the <em>Guardian<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/live\/2024\/nov\/22\/cop-29-live-poor-countries-may-have-to-compromise-on-climate-funding-says-former-un-envoy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Moreover, it is no longer developed countries who are responsible under this formulation.
