MEIDECC CEO, Paula Ma’u has stressed the call for urgent climate action and the need for clear financing plans.
He added that it is crucial, following the stark warning of the first part of the assessment report.
“The report will help Tonga to explore funding opportunities to fund the reduction of Tonga’s greenhouse gas emissions as well as adapt to the adverse effects and reduce the impacts of climate change,” he said.
The report was developed with the support of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) under its Climate Promise initiative.
