Is the COP26 summit all about the money?

Previous commitments to help lower income countries cope with climate change are yet to be fulfilled. Will COP26 be any different?

Malawi’s President - Lazarus Chakwera – told rich countries to β€œpay up or perish with us” ahead of the COP26 climate summit.
Developed nations are yet to meet a promise to pay Β£100bn to poorer countries each year to deal with climate change.

But Africa is the most vulnerable continent to the effects of climate change.
So, is COP26 really all about the money?
