Malaysia aims for 40% reduction in carbon emissions by year 2020

Malaysia is adopting a voluntary national reduction indicator of up to 40% in terms of GDP emission intensity by 2020 compared with 2005 levels. Addressing the United Nations Climate Change Conference 2009 (COP 15) in December last year, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said Malaysia was committed to doing its best to combat climate change.

“The key to our future co-operation is to recognise, adopt and work out the realisation of the principle of fair shares to the atmospheric space and resource. At the same time, we must have ambitious environmental aspirations,” he said, noting that combining these two factors would ensure the summit's success.
