Improve energy efficiency and transition to clean energy sources
Reduce energy consumption and associated emissions by adopting energy-efficient practices in buildings and switching to more energy-efficient means of transport.
Invest in solar, wind, hydro and other renewable energy sources to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from power generation.
Reforestation and forest preservation
Planting trees and managing forests sustainably to capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and combat deforestation.
Water conservation and support for environmentally-friendly agriculture
Encourage sustainable management of water resources. Adopt sustainable farming practices, such as agroforestry and reducing the use of synthetic fertilizers, to help reduce methane and nitrous oxide emissions from agriculture.
Waste reduction and recycling promotion
Minimize waste, recycle, and adopt environmentally friendly waste management practices to reduce emissions associated with waste disposal.
Sustainable transport
Promoting public transport, car-sharing, electric vehicles and non-motorized modes of travel (such as cycling and walking) reduces transport-related emissions.
Public awareness and engagement:
Educate the public about climate change issues, encourage eco-friendly behaviors, and promote environmentally favorable policies to raise awareness and encourage more environmentally conscious actions.
