To succeed, we must innovate, collaborate and act decisively as one global community,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>Stressing his administration\u2019s commitment to reducing carbon emissions, Tinubu informed the audience that the Nigerian government had adopted actionable programmes in line with global expectations, bearing in mind Nigeria\u2019s economic and political expectations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have embraced a vision of sustainability that aligns with global aspirations while addressing local realities. Our efforts are anchored on three pillars: Energy Transition, Climate Resilience, and Sustainable Development. My administration recognises the importance of reducing carbon emissions and a just transition to clean and renewable energy, promoting environmental sustainability and economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur energy transition plans, like many nations, are aimed at diversifying energy sources and reducing dependency on fossil fuels, prioritising the transition to cleaner energy sources as a cornerstone of our national development strategy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The President added that Nigeria is developing infrastructure for the widespread use of Compressed Natural Gas and electric vehicles and harnessing the potential in solid minerals to support the green energy transition.<\/p>\n<p>In his presentation at the summit, Tinubu said his country is also implementing climate-smart agricultural practices to enhance food security and lessen its destructive environmental impact.<\/p>\n<p>He listed these to include the introduction of the National Clean Cooking Policy, which aims to promote clean energy, environmental and health benefits, and socio-economic development in the African region.<\/p>\n<p>According to the President, government is working with local communities to implement solutions to mitigate the adverse consequences of the country\u2019s environmental challenges, such as deforestation, desertification, coastal erosion, flooding, and pollution.<\/p>\n<p>These challenges, he said, threaten the livelihoods of millions.<\/p>\n<p>He urged partner countries to collaborate in mobilising resources to tackle these challenges and embrace innovation and technology.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo promote a Green Economy in Africa, we must focus on integrating sustainable practices in all sectors of our economy. These investments are capital intensive and require international support from partner countries, including multinational organisations, development partners and individuals who share our vision of a sustainable, prosperous and equitable future\u201d, he said<\/p>\n<p>According to the President, \u201cNigeria became the first country in Africa to initiate funding of green projects through Sovereign Green Bond proceeds, the third issuance of which is in progress. We urge investors to partner with us in this regard. Our administration remains committed to providing an enabling environment for businesses to thrive in Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy partnering with global leaders and harnessing the power of technology, we are finding new and innovative ways to address our environmental challenges. We have arable agricultural lands for advanced technological farming, including a bright future for Artificial Intelligence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He lauded the President of the United Arab Emirates, His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, for his invitation and foresight in organising the event.<\/p>\n<p>The event was organised to bring world leaders together to exchange views and perspectives on how to address the global challenges of our time collectively.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
