Badge 1 Article 3: UN Climate and SDG Synergy Report 2025 Quantifies Benefits

The Third Global Report on Climate and SDGs Synergies, titled 'Harnessing Climate and SDG Synergy: Quantifying the Benefits,' is new, with countries preparing new climate plans in advance of COP 30. With an SDG financing gap of almost 4 trillion USD per year and a climate financing gap of 6 trillion uSD per year, the report states that "synergistic action is not optional but rather the most efficient and impactful way forward" SDG Knowledge Hub. Nature based solutions can provide 37% of cost-effective carbon dioxide mitigation by 2030, but a 700 billion USD biodiversity gap and a 359 billion USD adaptation gap linger due to harmful subsidies. This report emphasizes that customizing synergistic strategies by country context creates targeted investments, and warns that the cost of protecting biodiversity and restoring ecosystems will outweigh the long term benefits of a stable climate and better health.
