Publisher's Synopsis
The inaugural Asia-Pacific Climate Report offers an overview of the region's evolving climate landscape, up-to-date public perceptions, and key areas for policy responses.
The report highlights the region's climate vulnerability, provides updated estimates of the potential impacts and costs of climate change, and proposes priority actions to accelerate adaptation progress. Policy options for governments to mobilize more private climate capital for both adaptation and mitigation are distilled. Finally, the report identifies how governments in the region can move toward more effective carbon pricing mechanisms to efficiently reduce emissions.
