Le changement climatique est l'un des sujets dont on parle le plus dans le monde parce  qu'll affecte le quotidien de tous les habitants de la planete, y compris ceux qui vivent dans les iles du pacifique. Les scientifiques disent que lechangement climatique pourrait rendre les saisons chaudes plus longues et amener beacoup de pluies durant la saison humide.

Technical Need Assessment (TNA) for Vanuatu is funded by the UNDP partering with the GIZ. The objective of the TNA is to firstly identified priority sectors in the mitigation processes. The NAB has approved of the energy and waste to be considered for this TNA.

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.

Vanuatu is unique among the Paris Agreement parties that have produced Low Emissions Development Strategies (LEDS) and Long-Term Strategies (LTS). Vanuatu is already net negative for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Vanuatu’s large forest area removes more than 10 times the GHG emissions generated from human activity.

The Government of Vanuatu has decided to develop an oceans policy, which aligns with recommendations from the
Commonwealth Secretariat.
This report summarises the main findings1 of an analysis and assessment of 69 instruments of legislation and
subordinate policies and plans that are relevant to management and use of Vanuatu’s territorial waters and therefore
relevant to the development of the national oceans policy. The review of Vanuatu’s legislation, policies, strategies and
