<p>Tackling climate change is a priority for this Government. There are regular discussions
on climate and environment issues among Ministers, and next week the Secretary of
State is hosting Ministerial colleagues to discuss how we can work together to strengthen
UK ambition, and deliver transformative outcomes at the United Nations Climate Action
Summit later this year. The Government has committed £5.8bn of International Climate
Finance (ICF) from 2016-2021 to help developing countries tackle climate change. Since
2011 our ICF support has helped reduce or avoid 10.4 million tonnes of carbon emissions
from entering the atmosphere.</p>
