RIYADH: Countries south of the equator are relying on those of the “Global North” to do more as the world seeks a sustainable future by adopting energy transition strategies, according to Mia Mottley, prime minister of Barbados. 

Speaking at the high-level opening of the UN Climate Change Conference in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt on Nov. 7, Mottley noted that countries in the “Global South’” lack those resources which are necessary for a smooth energy transition.
