Where to spend aid and climate change money

Aaron Schiff questions the utility of the latest Japanese $10 billion of aid given to African nations to tackle climate change. He wonders what is the most efficient way to (a) tackle climate change and (b) reduce poverty? Though I wonder if there’s a lot of ‘low hanging’ climate change fruit to picked in Africa, that means this money is better spent there then in Japan. Not to mention, that this may also contribute to building industry in African nations which will probably do more than just ‘food aid’ in the long term.
