Malaysia’s Fair Share Carbon Budget Explained


Listen Later

The world has a limited amount of carbon left that it can emit if we want to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. Scientists call this the global carbon budget. But once that number is set, another question follows: how should that budget be divided between countries? A new report titled "Estimating a Fair Share Carbon Budget for Malaysia" examines what our country's fair share might actually look like, and what it means for our climate policies going forward. We find out more from the report’s co-authors, Adam Farhan and Nithiyah Tamilwanan.
