<p>Protecting those who are vulnerable to loss and damage due to climate change includes
responding to disasters, helping people adapt to climate change and reducing greenhouse
gas emissions to keep global warming to manageable levels.</p><p>The UK Government
has committed to increase the UK’s climate finance by at least 50%, and will provide
£5.8 billion over the next 5 years, of which half will be focused on helping people
adapt to climate change including the most vulnerable. We have also committed to contributing
to the G7 InsuResilience target of an additional 400 million people gaining access
to insurance by 2020. The UK is actively engaged on these issues within the United
Nations, including through its seat on the Executive Committee that is responsible
for guiding action on loss and damage.</p>
