LGBT try to get climate change funding

Abortion leaders have shamelessly discussed how they can tap into the massive global funding on HIV/AIDS. Now LGBT leaders are eyeing the flood of money going toward climate change.

Noelene Nabulivou, from Fiji, is a member of Development Alternatives with Women for a New Era (DAWN). She proposed this theory at a panel on Development Debates in a Fierce New World in New York City:

“Looking at the example of climate change funding at the moment, there is a lot coming in… but there is no funding, less funding for sexual rights work… [yet] these issues are interlinked, and this makes women’s bodies, and lesbian bodies more vulnerable to the effects of climate change.”
