There’s been quite a stream of countries joining the competition to become carbon neutral – and now it’s Morocco’s turn. First, they hosted COP22, the United Nations Climate Change Conference, where the Climate Vulnerable Forum Vision was composed and published. Here’s one small section:
- We strive to meet 100% domestic renewable energy production as rapidly as possible, while working to end energy poverty and protect water and food security, taking into consideration national circumstances.
Now Morocco’s working on meeting that goal. From Clean Technica:
Morocco, the host country of COP22, is one of these 48 countries. Over the past months and years, the World Future Council has worked with several stakeholders in the country, developing a policy roadmap to transition to 100% renewable electricity. With the CVF´s Marrakesh Vision, this roadmap can now serve as guidance for the new government to go faster and further and walk the talk.
We’ll see if they can pull it off.
