Nepal urges climate compensation, not just aid, after deadly floods
Nepal's Foreign Minister Shisir Khanal has called on the international community to provide climate compensation rather than just welfare aid, following deadly flash floods and landslides on the Nepal-China border. The death toll has risen to 1,225, with Khanal stressing that Nepal contributes less than 0.1 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions yet bears a disproportionate impact of climate change.
