In the INDC, the FSM commits to unconditionally reduce by 2025 a 28% its GHGs emissions below emissions in year 2000; Similarly, subject to the availability of additional financial, technical and capacity building support from the international community, the FSM could do by 2025 an additional reduction up to 35% below emissions in the 2000 base year. The coverage of the mitigation efforts include: energy sector's electricity generation, and transport subsectors.
The INDC also highlights that adaptation constitutes a priority for FSM. Assessments on FSM's adaptation needs in the post 2020 context are being made in the context of the Nation Wide Integrated Disaster Risk Management and Climate Change Policy 2013 and the FSM Climate Change Act 2014, as well as the joint state action plans for disaster risk management and climate change adaptation. All necessary efforts are being made to engage the country in the formulation and implementation of transformational adaptation investment plans to protect the country against climate change.
