"The report highlights the region’s climate vulnerability, provides updated estimates of the potential impacts and costs of climate change, and proposes priority actions to accelerate adaptation progress. Policy options for governments to mobilize more private climate capital for both adaptation and mitigation are distilled. Finally, the report identifies how governments in the region can move toward more effective carbon pricing mechanisms to efficiently reduce emissions." #climatechange #impact #cost #adapatation #climatecapital #carbonmarket #reduceemissions https://lnkd.in/etH7WSHB

By holding governments accountable, they would be pushed to put in the needed efforts in addressing the climate menace. Hopefully, this shall not be just on paper. It should happen on the ground before being transfered unto papers. #ClimateAction #ActNowForSDGs #ActNow #sdgs2030

A #biennial #transparencyreport on climate is crucial for several reasons: #Accountability: It holds governments and organizations accountable for their climate actions or lack thereof, fostering transparency in their efforts to combat climate change. #ProgressTracking: It helps track progress towards climate goals outlined in international agreements like the Paris Agreement, providing a clear picture of what is being achieved and what still needs work. #InformingPolicies: Transparency reports can inform policy decisions by highlighting areas where improvements are needed or where successful strategies can be replicated. #BuildingTrust: Regular reporting builds trust among stakeholders, including governments, businesses, and the public, by demonstrating a commitment to addressing climate change and sharing information openly. #EncouragingAction: Publicly available reports can inspire action from other entities by showcasing effective measures and encouraging collaboration and knowledge-sharing. Overall, biennial transparency reports play a vital role in driving global efforts to mitigate climate change and transition to a sustainable future.

Transparent reporting is critical!

Accountability is key.

How do we track progress on climate action? This year, countries must submit their first-ever Biennial Transparency Reports (BTRs), assessing climate actions taken and progress made under the Paris Agreement. But what exactly are BTRs and why is transparent reporting critical to global #ClimateAction? #ClimateLingo #Together4Transparency

Climate change isn’t a distant problem waiting to happen. It’s a crisis unfolding right now. However, in most countries, it still hasn’t found its way to the centre of political discussions. Instead, it lingers on the sidelines of debate, even though it’s the looming threat that affects every policy decision we make today. We need to start treating climate change as the political issue that it truly is. #climatechange #Sustainability https://lnkd.in/dZWtmYZ8
