BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Borneo Bulletin/Asia News Network): Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the Asean region are estimated to increase in the same period, based on the latest Nationally determined contributions (NDC) targets up to 2030.
A recent study by the AseanCentre for Energy through its Asean Climate Change and the Energy Project (Accept) on Asean’s energy and climate policy indicates that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per capita will increase by 140 per cent between 2015 and 2040 in the region, and that emissions must fall by 11 per cent relative to the present trajectory to meet the targets of the NDCs.
