At the end of last year, the World Resources Institute (WRI) released an explainer defining "loss and damage" within the context of climate change. This article explores how the UN defines (or really doesn't) the terms for use during climate negotiations. This is an easy-to-read guide to understanding UN climate reports more deeply, especially on what's often an overly-politicized topic.

WRI (World Research Institute) is an international water and development research organization.
