At #COP27 implementation, delivering on financial pledges/commitments ($100 to $150 bln/year until 2025) & advancing of the implementation of NDCs • Ethiopia's NDC is estimated at $316 Bln, mitigation & intervention ($275 bln) and adaptation actions ($40 Bln) to implement aiming to build a climate resilient economy by 2030 & meeting the PA's 1.5°C target. #COP27 #EthiopiaRising pic.twitter.com/hYoUA • #Ethiopia is committed to invest $63 bln on climate change and adaptation action from domestic resources by 2030 at an average of $6.32 bln per year. #COP27 #EthiopiaRising • The African Group of Negotiators (AGN) has identified 11 thematic issues faced by the continent: dble adaptation finance by 2025, support loss & damage, link tech & fin mechanisms, Article 6 & carbon pricing etc. 🇪🇹's position is consistent with the AGN # • 🇪🇹's #GreenLegacy has demonstrated building climate resilience while protecting livelihoods: 1 in 50 seedlings set to improve food security & income generation, 500 million plants which bear fruits (papayas, mangoes, and avocados) #COP27 #EthiopiaRising • #Ethiopia has prepared its Long-Term Low Emission Development Strategy (LT-LEDS) in accordance with the Paris Agreement which it will reveal at #COP27 with the goal of putting country on a path to net-zero emissions by 2050! #EthiopiaRising • Second only to the Amazon, #Ethiopia's afforestation and reforestation 4 year #GreeLegacy program is the most extensive in the world! #COP27 #EthiopiaRising pic.twitter.com/RtlBeT0p0v • Africa is 17% of the world's population but it receives less than 5% of the world's climate fund and even that, mainly in debt. Combating climate change requires a collaborative effort and adequate funding. #COP27 #EthiopiaRising • #Ethiopia has done, and continues to do a great deal on climate change! Its commitment for the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across sectors by 64% below the ‘business-as-usual’ GHG emissions by 2030! #COP27 #EthiopiaRising • The 🇪🇹|n SMART irrigation system, a huge success in 2022, produced 2.5 MT of wheat in the dry season. 2 million HA is planned for cultivation in 2023 and paving the way for food self sufficiency and wheat export! #COP27 #EthiopiaRising pic.twitter.com/a0 • #Ethiopia has put over 700,000 HA of existing biodiversity and carbon-rich natural forests under sustainable participatory forest management scheme, going above and beyond its reforestation and afforestation efforts #COP27 #EthiopiaRising • By 2030, 🇪🇹 plans to restore an additional 22 million HA of degraded land! Impressive by any standards, even more so when #Ethiopia's afforestation and reforestation are primarily funded through domestic sources and efforts!! #COP27 #EthiopiaRising • They rightfully bestowed the Nobel Prize in '19 for making peace with 🇪🇷. @AbiyAhmedAli made history in '22 by making peace again worthy of another. Now, his prize should be for his tremendous achievement on his #GreenLegacy! #COP27 #EthiopiaRising pic.tw • Use of heat tolerant, water efficient wheat varieties was pivotal for #Ethiopia to achieve Food Sovereignty.
