Oxfam International said that the G-8 must also reach a compromise on increasing aid to poor countries to adapt to climate change. The eight countries represented in this forum are the maximum responsible for global warming and the most capable of helping poor countries adapt to its impact, according to Antonio Hill. We hope that these countries come to a concrete financial commitment to mitigate the effects of climate change. The poorest countries, particularly in Africa, will be unable to withstand the effects posed by climate change. The more conservative forecasts estimate that the costs of adapting to climate change in developing countries will be a minimum of 50 billion dollars annually.

The G-8 must pay 80% of this amount, said Hill.
