Senator Imee Marcos said the Philippines' target to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 75% by 2030 is "absurd," and urged the Climate Change Commission (CCC) to aim for an "achievable" goal. "Just looking from where I sit, that's absurd," Marcos said on Thursday deliberation of the P128.21 million proposed 2023 budget of the agency.
Senator Imee Marcos said the Philippines' target to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 75% by 2030 is "absurd," and urged the Climate Change Commission to aim for an "achievable" goal.
The Philippines ratified the agreement in 2017, which allowed the government access to the Green Climate Fund. During the hearing, Marcos questioned constant reports of anti-competitive practices and exploitative abuses in the agricultural and trading sector. “I was going to move that in fact, we provide intel support and urge the commission to focus on agricultural cartels, syndicates, and other alleged anti-competitive behavior given the crying need for relief in the midst of so many food shortages as well as spiraling food prices,” she said.
“Halimbawa… masuportahan ng CDA at maging ang komite natin sa kooperatiba ang panukala ng PUP… ng pagtatayo ng isang national center for cooperative studies,” she said.
