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

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.

Ocean warming may well turn out to be the greatest hidden challenge of our generation. This report represents the most comprehensive review to date on ocean warming. To build up the report, leading scientists from around the world were invited to join with colleagues to contribute individual chapters.  It contains many recommendations from the scientists on capability gaps and research issues that need to be resolved if we are to tackle the impacts of ocean warming with greater confidence in the future.
