Net Zero by 2050 A Roadmap for the Global Energy Sector

 Energy  Emission reduction  Emissions  Low carbon energy  Renewable energy  Renewable energy targets

The energy sector is the source of around three‐quarters of greenhouse gas emissions  today and holds the key to averting the worst effects of climate change, perhaps the  greatest challenge humankind has faced. Reducing global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to  net zero by 2050 is consistent with efforts to limit the long‐term increase in average global  temperatures to 1.5 °C. This calls for nothing less than a complete transformation of how we  produce, transport and consume energy.

Climate is always changing, and on a variety of time scales. Rarely uniform, climate is inherently
variable and often punctuated by extreme events. Being prepared for the consequences of climate
change, variability and extremes is a strategic policy option, once chosen by the Republic of Vanuatu.
Adaptation to climate change, variability and extremes represents an important challenge for the
sustainable development of society. As understanding of the climate system continues to deepen

Using land is the basis of life for the people of Vanuatu. As the nation develops, population grows, threats of climate change intensify, and competition for land grows, there is an increasing need for appropriate and effective land use planning. It is of vital importance that Vanuatu’s people adequately plan the use of their land, not only for today, but also the future.

This book is about how you can use trees and gardens together to reclaim land that has been overrun by Big Leaf Rope. This approach has many benefits. Most importantly, it will allow you to make use of otherwise wasted land, and turn it into a fertile and productive garden. Techniques outlined in this book will allow for an increased crop yield and overall profit, helping to better support you and your family. It will help to increase the variety of crops you can grow, and provide further opportunities down the road selling timber from trees.
