Thailand becomes first Southeast Asian nation to ink an Article 6 deal with Singapore
Dubbed a "pathfinder for the region", it is Singapore's eighth bilateral carbon trading deal to meet its climate targets. The Philippines, which is pursuing a similar pact, has just opened its draft carbon credit policy for consultation.
This accelerated timeline would align its target with the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C warming limit. The country aims to cut its emissions by 60 per cent from a 2019 baseline by 2035, says a government official.
