Türkiye and Australia agreed to put forward a decision on putting existing climate pledges into practice, COP31 negotiations president Chris Bowen said at the opening of the UN climate conference in Antalya, Türkiye, on November 9. Bowen said he and conference president Murat Kurum would bring the proposal forward and leave the participating countries to shape it. Anadolu also reported the announcement from the opening session.

Bowen said the proposal would run alongside existing negotiations and focus on practical steps. The two presidencies have agreed to pursue it. The opening announcement did not establish a decision adopted by the participating countries. [evidence-1] [evidence-2]
UN climate chief Simon Stiell urged negotiators to make it easier for countries to receive money that has already been pledged and to deliver on the existing goal of tripling funding for adaptation to climate impacts. He also called for cuts to methane emissions from oil and gas operations and waste. [evidence-1]
Bowen listed the Climate Finance Work Programme among the existing items for negotiation. That is a priority for India. In a November 3 briefing published by the Press Information Bureau, Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav said India would seek a COP31 decision to start the programme. [evidence-1] [evidence-3]
