The National Climate Change Response White Paper guides immediate and long term action to adapt to the already measurable impacts of climate change and to reduce GHG emissions. The medium term priorities are to develop and facilitate the implementation of a climate change adaptation and mitigation regulatory framework, which enables the transition of the economy to a climate resilient, low carbon, job creating growth path through clear sector based objectives, market, non-market and fiscal incentive and disincentive instruments, sector implementation plans and a comprehensive monitoring and evaluation system.
