And when you say donors, who do you mean, and to what source would they donate?
More than one source?

By saying donors, it refers to the rich-developing countires, which have environmentally conscious prgrams that will endeavor on combatting climate change in multitude of solutions.
these rich countries would disbusre funds for the poor countries who are harmed.
so, yes to many sources as well depending on the impacts of climate change in the country. Not just that depending on the eligibility criteria of the donating agencies/organizations/corporations/..etc….
Recently, six Nobel Laureate in environmental research has pointed that “there is no more time” Climate change is an imminent problem in our world, energt research, conservation and regualations are needed to be conducted.
In principle, it is a ubiquitous ethical notion, that when one harms anther peron, one is left with two main obligations: (1) stopping/curbing the harm [mitigation] , and (2) helping the victim with coping strategies [adaptation].
