When the Paris Agreement, an international framework for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, was signed in 2015, nations agreed to boost the ambition of their national climate commitments–known as NDCs–every five years.
CCC Secretary Emmanuel De Guzman said the Philippines’ NDC is the country’s blueprint with a host of investment options in the sectors of agriculture, waste, industry, transport, forestry and energy — in pursuit of low carbon development pathways, green jobs, and a just transition towards a green economy.
“Our NDC can be considered an investment plan because of the principle of climate justice. We need to have access to finance, capacity-building and technology transfer so that we can transform our economy into green low-carbon economy,” he explained. These include the Department of Energy for the energy sector, Department of Transportation for the transport sector, Department of Environment and Natural Resources for forestry, waste and industry sectors, and Department of Agriculture for the agriculture sector.
