I find it baffling that, for instance, India, one the most polluted and polluting country in the planet on several metrics, is one of the recipient of the money.

People in countries that go the extra mile to keep the environment as clean as possible and that already cleanup after others, are being extorted money to give to a country that's responsible, for instance, for the most plastic being poured into the ocean after China. [1]

This is a total inversion of principles and a reinforcement of negative behavior. These countries should be suffering penalties, not getting rewards.
