This report reviews past and ongoing applications of market-based instruments to address air quality, water and waste management in Asia, and provides recommendations for the use of more efficient and effective environmental management.
This report explains the more technical contours of how, by the 2030s, trucking, aviation and shipping could be decoupling from climate. Steel, aluminum, cement and plastics too could take new forms, saved and made in new ways and unexpected places under novel business models.
This publication, "100 Climate Actions from Cities in Asia and the Pacific", showcases 100 projects and programs tackling climate change and its impacts on people and the environment in cities across Asia and the Pacific.
This paper identifies several intersectional opportunities and explores five key opportunities and action areas for transport decarbonization and public-private participation for countries, cities and companies - public transport, walking and bicycling, vehicle electrification, rail, and research and development. Actions in these areas can help decarbonize transport while creating jobs, increasing equity, improving road safety and reducing air pollution.
This expert note provides a review of the pandemic’s impact on the transport sector, a rationale for economic recovery through transport, NDC-related measures captured in economic recovery discussions, and guidance for NDC and recovery alignment.
