ISLAMABAD: (UrduPoint/Pakistan Point News-Jan 19th, 2023) Minister for Climate Change, Sherry Rehman has called upon major global greenhouse gas emitters to assist the global clean energy transition.
She was speaking at a panel discussion titled ‘Bending the Emissions Curve’ at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos.
The Minister said the countries responsible for majority of global greenhouse gas emissions, need to move resources to allow developing and emerging economies to make the energy transition to renewable without compromising development.
