This document sets the government's strategy to meet commitments made under the Paris Agreement, move towards resilience and net zero carbon emissions by 2050. It underlines the long-term strategy (LTS) for low greenhouse gas emissions and climate-resilient development.
Four strategic axes of policy action are identified: 1) Climate-resilient food and landscapes: Agriculture, food security, forestry and natural resources (including water, biodiversity and wildlife), 2) Low emissions and resilient economy: Energy, transport, infrastructure and the key economic sectors of tourism and financial services, 3) Climate-resilient people: Health, education, equitable social development and human settlements, and 4) Climate-aware Integrated Coastal Zone Management.
